    Pacquiao was also looking the best he had ever looked since the Cotto fight, before getting KTFO, which makes that win much more sweeter. :deal

    Whether or not he deserves to be FOTY, he still had the single best victory of the year by far. :deal:deal

    Well i'll tell you one thing, Ward certainly has the best case of having the Perfromance of the Year against Dawson. :good

    They're all deserving but somebody has to win. It so happened that more fans who voted were more impressed overall with Donaire than Marquez who came in far second. That's how it is in boxing which is a subjective sports. Just stating for the record that our boy won the plum awarded by Ring Mag and ESPN. Those guys you mentioned should try their luck next time around. :D:good

    Yup, Nonito deserves it well.
    And he's now planning to fight Rigo next with VADA random testing
    2013 seems a big potential for him too :good

    I agree with you but he did not win the FOTY as voted by majority of the fans. They are not looking at one single fight but all the fights that one boxer fought in 2012

    a very bush league fraudulent way of doing it, yes that was his plan to hype a fight that no one on this planet wants to see
