Ring Magazine Awards this year.

Well, I just think the Fighter award will be tossed between PBF and Cotto but PBF will have a higher consideration as he fought DLH and Hatton(if he wins) which carries more significance, not bacause of what they accomplish recently, but because of their names.

Why? atsch

 

Joe Calzague fighter of the year hahahaha WHAT A JOKE.

 

Why not Calzaghe for fighter of the year? He beat his top contender, also unbeaten , and in his prime.Floyd beat an old part time fighter.

 

Yeah no ****. The Kessler win was big, but come on. What else did he do? Join the elite society of Manfredo conquerors, along side Alfonso Gomez and Sergio Mora atsch

Cotto was in 2 wars with Judah and Mosley

If Floyd beats Hatton.......

Manny Pac had a better year then Calzaghe for ****s sake.

What about Pavlik? Two devastating KOs of top Middleweights.

 

Because he fought Peter Manfredo.

 

mostly true apart from this part, beating an old shot MAB and KOing solis does not eclipse beating kessler and becoming the first undisputed SMW champ.

 

His win over Kessler wasnt' enough to make up for his 'Contender Challenge'. Sorry.

 

Can you imagine Bernard Hopkins fighting Codrington at Yankee Stadium???? Didn't think so. But That is the equivalent to Calzaghe fighting Manfredo. What about Floyd taking on Alfonso Gomez in Vegas for his next fight?

 

no, codrington's a bit too big for old pops taste and he'd never fill that stadium :smooch

manfredo was simply an exercise to expose him a little more to the american boxing public.

kessler>>>>>MAB & solis

 

For 'Fighter of the Year'??? :huh
