    Try Floyd Mayweather :good

    I think you meant Hopkins is the fighter who has scored most upsets... completely different thing from being`fighter of the decade.`

    Tarver ko2 Jones has to be number 1 regardless of what Tarver did after that.

    IT ISNT

    Jones-Ruiz was the biggest & most historic victory this decade IMO.

    These are a few others in no exact order......
    Mayweather-Delahoya
    Mayweather-Corrales
    Hopkins-Tarver
    Hopkins-Pavlik
    Hopkins-Trinidad
    Morales-Pacquiao I
    Pacquiao-Barrera I
    Barrera-Hamed
    Tarver-Jones II
    Calzaghe-Kessler
    Mosely-Delahoya I

    Ps. Mayweather-Delahoya was next most important after RJJ-Ruiz as he joined SRL, Hearns, DLH himself & Duran as the only men in history to bag 5 titles in different weights.


    For the record - FIGHTER OF DECADE = MAYWEATHER
    ................... FIGHT OF THE DECADE = MORALES v BARRERA I (2000)

    Morales over Pac should be there, and Barrera over Hamed.

    Corrales V Castillo I, the three Vasquez/Marquez fights all rank above those for me. Tszyu -Judah deserve an hon mention too
