Re: ~Saddos 2009 Boxing Awards~
Seeing as it's the end of the decade, why not add Fighter of the Decade/Knockout of the Decade categories and any other Of The Decade categories that peeps think should be added?

Yes he is.
IMO a prospect is a fighter who has NOT fought and or won a title yet.
Or an Eliminator bout, that to me is a contender already.
DeMarco is no longer a prospect IMO, neither is Ward or Dirrell they to me are Contenders because of the caliber of opponents they have faced.

I think that's a great idea for a seperate thread, it should be done at the begining of the year.
If you like you can put it together, if not I'll gladly whip something up and come up with an Award show similar to this one but more GRAND per say... ;D
