Who's your fighter of the decade?

Hopkins? DLH? Mayweather?

I think Pacquiao is the fighter of this decade. Take a look at his outstanding career so far:

Beat former world champion Ledwaba as a late replacement. (2001)

Beat former world champion and p4p great Barrera twice. (2001 and 2007)

Beat former world champion Morales twice and had 1 loss out of 3 matches. (2005 and 2006)

Beat former world champion and p4p great Marquez once and 1 draw out of 2 fights. (2004 and 2008)

Beat former world champion Diaz. (2008)

Beat former world champion and boxing legend DeLa Hoya. (2008)

Beat former world champion Hatton. (2009)

Beat Miguel Cotto for the welterweight championship. (2009)

These 10 years of excellence and dominance makes Pac very much deserving to be the fighter of the decade.

So who's your fighter of the decade? or your favorite fighter and why?

    It has to be Pacman. He has acheived what no other fighter has. World titles in 7 different weight classes. He is an awesome fighter and a great champion. He has destroyed opponents of the highest calibre and in spectacular fashion.

    He will go down as one of the best ever, and deservedly so.

    Manny for sure. Even if he loses to Flyde I would still say Manny. It takes a lot of courage to move up in weight classes like Manny did and not only compete but dominate. See if Mayweather would ever move up and Bhop, Kelly Pavlik, Aurther Abraham or other top guys in those divisions right above him. Floyd goes down to fight a featherweight in JJM. No points money for beating a great little man. Manny is still a great little man, you need to get by Manny and then beat some great guys your size b4 I'll even consider you.

    It almost has to be Manny Pacquiao, your argument in his favor is rock solid given his success.

    Pacman, yes.

    Roy Jones jr. should be in consideration also.
