		<description>&quot;How can Pacquiao be given this award when he pretty much lost his fight with Juan Manuel Marquez in March 2008 in the views of many boxing fans, and beat an average David Diaz in June to win his World Boxing Council lightweight title and then defeated the totally shot – and weight drained – Oscar De La Hoya in December 2008.&quot;

Manuel Perez is dumb, regardless of your arguments regarding Pacman&#039;s fights in 2008, we are talking about FIGHTER OF THE YEAR 2009. Its like riding a plane using another carrier&#039;s ticket, plain stupidity.</description>

		<description>I think Nazim should win trainer of the year for 2009 as Mosley&#039;s fight with Margo-cheat was this year.  He not only helped Mosley beat Margo-cheato, he exposed Margo-cheato for the scum bag that he is.  The Boxing world owes him some gratitude.</description>

I&#039;m not really attacking you. Did I even say some harsh words like &quot;retards&quot; and stuff..hmmm?

I&#039;m just saying that you are embarrassing yourself for being an internet tough guy. Oh and I DID stay on topic. I said it before and I said it again, Manny Pacquiao deserves the 2008 Fighter of the Year and no one can steal that from him.

@Millertime82 

You&#039;re right, why do I even care of replying a &quot;crying baby who can can&#039;t accept that his toy got broken&quot;  &lt;.&lt;

		<description>&quot;Realbox&quot;- Obviously you&#039;re right (in your mind). A wise man once told me &quot;you can&#039;t argue with an idiot&quot;. So you win.</description>

		<description>So for having my own opinion, and happening to agree with the article writter&#039;s opinion i am in the wrong?.

Screw that, i am entitled to my own opinion.
Indio do the same search for &quot;outstanding hindi in sports&quot; it&#039;s basically the same quality, now go back to your support desk and answer some phones.

Conrad.
Defending too much? you did the exact same thing as everyone else but a couple of guys, try to sound smart by NOT talking about the article, instead of personally attacking me you should try to write something related to the article, if you have nothing to weigh in with STFU and move on to the next article, or go troll some video in youtube.

Stay on topic retards.</description>

		<description>Hey Ronald, How did Oscar not except his defeat with Pac? 

I would say that retiring from a sport that the man(Oscar) was doing since he was five pretty much says that he accepted his loss...dont you?

And yes,you have to give Manny fighter of the year.</description>

		<description>Although I consider Pacquiao to be a very good fighter, I agree with you Manuel, that he did not win the second Marquez- Pacquiao fight. I also agree that he beat a Dela Hoya, who was weak and dehydrated. While Manny would not be my pick for the fighter of the year award, I must stop short of saying that he is not deseving of this award.</description>

		<description>Can&#039;t we all just get along?  I&#039;d hate to f-ing say it, but seriously man.  This is JUST boxing and we are all JUST fans.  State your opinions and if they differ from some one else, so be it.  No need to make personal attacks on other fans, or other fan&#039;s countries.  With that said, there&#039;s nothing I can say that hasn&#039;t already been said, but does Pac deserve to be fighter of the year?  I believe he does.  Was JMM an amazing fight for Pac...absolutely.  If he didn&#039;t win that fight, then no, he wouldn&#039;t deserve to be fighter of the year.  I agree that David Diaz was a tailor made opponent for Pac, but as far as saying he &quot;cherry picked&quot; de La Hoya, that&#039;s absurd.  De La Hoya was the one who pursued Manny Pacquiao after he chickened out after seeing what Margo-cheato did to Cotto.  Yes, the ODLH that showed up was a mere shadow of himself, but how was Pac to know that when he accepted the fight?  Is it Pac&#039;s fault that ODLH looked like a past his prime amature in the ring?  Going into the fight, 90% of the boxing world didn&#039;t even give Pac a chance in hell at winning, so to claim that Pac &quot;cherry picked&quot; De La Hoya borders on insanity.  IMO, the fact that Pac and JMM put on one of the fights of the year, and his ability to move through 4 weight classes (in one year!) and the excitement of ALL his boughts in 08 contsitutes fighter of the year.  Were there others that faced tougher competition?  MAYBE JMM, but if you&#039;re going to call ODLH past his prime, then you have to do the same for Joel Casamayor. So JMM fought Pac (and lost, regardless of what others say, a loss is a loss) and he beat a past his prime Casamayor.  Was it B-Hop?  He lost to Calzaghe.  Was it Calzaghe?  He fought PAST THEIR PRIMES B-Hop and RJJ.  P Will Maybe?  He got schooled by Quintana the first time around.  So as you can see, you can make a case against ANYONE, but the overall consensus is the Manny Pacquiao had a damn good year.  Besides, if you want to state otherwise, then you should have become a member of the BWAA and stated your opinion by casting a different vote.  Sorry Manuela Perez, then won&#039;t allow biased writers membership.  They would look at ALL your articles and your anti-anything not mexican articles and laugh.  It&#039;s okay to not think Pac is great, but seriously dude, get over it.</description>
