Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Rios got owned by Abril and Paulie lost comfortably to Cano imo, so scratch them right off the fackin list.
For pure dominance I like Broner but its hard to ignore Marquez's highlight reel KO and Garcia's two brutal 4th round stoppages. One of those 3 for me.
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Juan Manuel Marquez. It shouldn't even be debated.
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Marquez. He made the biggest impact on the world of boxing in 2012. Donaire could also be debated
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Froch.
His fights vs Bute & Mack were brutal finishes.
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Donaire. Big wins and the only guy in boxing who does proper dru testing.
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
Honourable mention to Robert Guerrero. He could actually win this. Comes up two weight classes after a 15 month layoff and beats Aydin, the recognized number 1 contender and then Berto. Both by a wide margin.
Leo Santa Cruz deserves a shout. He has already fought Alejandro Hernandez, Vusi Malinga, Eric Morel and Victor Zaleta and fights again tomorrow.
Re: Who is fighter of the year ?
A guy knocks out one of the p4p kings that has been oh so dominant for so long(Despite his fights with JMM). how can you not give it to him? Marquez for the significance of the win over Pac.

For me the fighter of the year should be the fighter whos performance(s) encapsulated the boxing year - therefore I fully agree.
