    Are any years blatantly obvious? Any much more contentious?

    1937 - Henry Armstrong

    Question: did any boxer have a better year than Armstrong's in 1937? His record in that calendar year was 27-0 with 26 kos and he won the world feather weight title too. Unbelievable.

    He didn't have a bad 1938 either - winning the welterweight and lightweight titles back to back. The Ring gave Joe Louis FOTY that year though.

    I imagine Ray Leonard ought to be in there somewhere and probably Pernell Whitaker too
