Canelo Alvarez for me. Josh Taylor, Naoya Inoue, Artur Beterbiev and Errol Spence did good too.

Inoue for me. He crushed his way to a great final where he had to adjust and work around Donaire who was coming in motivated.

Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Agree. They all had tremendous achievements in 2019 and sometimes it’s just too hard to give it to one person.

Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
ESPN names Canelo as their FOTY.
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Canelo deserves to be called a fighter of the year indeed. Unified vs the top middleweight and conquered the belt of arguably the best light heavyweight.
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Bit difficult to give it to Mayweather when he was only active for half the decade.
If only the pro ranks are being consider it probably makes sense to give it to Pacquiao as the decade runs from 01-01-2010 to 31-12-2019
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
It pains me somewhat to admit that Canelo deserves FOTY. Josh Taylor and Errol Spence are runner up's. Beterbiev get's honorable mention.
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
I would add Lomachenko, Crawford, Beterbiev and Wilder.................drunkenpiper36 wrote: ↑17 Dec 2019, 00:26Agree. They all had tremendous achievements in 2019 and sometimes it’s just too hard to give it to one person.
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
And just like that Canelo vacates the title!
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Under the radar Navarette getting no love. 4-0 4 kos v 88-5 records. Should at least be discussed in p4p terms. . The kid is the real deal.

During which Pacquiao went 12-4 (1), lost his 2 biggest fights, and has about 3 good wins....

Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Pesky problem there is Floyd easily beat Manny, also easily beat Canelo which would be the next name in line.
Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Pac needs to win Spence and Crawford to be better rated, than Floyd. And Canelo needs to beat Wilder, Fury and Joshua.

Re: Fighter of the Year 2019
Fair point, but Mayweather's wins were significant enough to give whole decade kudos.
He easily outclassed Alvarez and Pacquiao who are two other contenders for the decade.
It's hard to look past Mayweather.
