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

Alvarez for me too.
Also got to consider the fighter of the decade.

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.

Agree. They all had tremendous achievements in 2019 and sometimes it’s just too hard to give it to one person.

Nominating Can Xu as an honourable mention.

ESPN names Canelo as their FOTY.

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.

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.

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.

And just like that Canelo vacates the title!

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....

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.

But if you watch the fight in slow-mo 3 times Manny actually beat Floyd

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.
