BBC Sports Personality - Short list

In that case I quite agree. Can't see Davis Cup for TOTY. Murray wouldn't agree with this, I'm sure, but if ever there was an example of a one man team that was it.

I know England won the ashes but they seem to be in a constant state of turmoil at the moment so I'd be unconvinced by them as TOTY.

Not sure who my TOTY might be.... need to mull that over.

Team of the Year should be the England women's Hockey team for winning the European Championships.

Lewis didn't hold the WBO but was named as undisputed champ

That's because i though undisputed meant holding the three big ones until recently - WBA , WBC and IBF ?

As i said - they classed undisputed as holding the three big ones - the belts that have been around longer - WBA , WBC and IBF - from 2007 they included the WBO into it when they all recognised each other.

This post makes me laugh. He's just beating a pound for pound great. Not just beaten him but taken him to school.

All this hype around Joshua is a joke. He's beaten a collection of plumbers and Latvian taxi drivers so far. He was gifted a win in the Olympics by some questionable judging.

People need to look further than sky sports and matchroom sports when it comes to boxing.

Sorry I forgot you knew everything about boxing (Which is evidently not true)

Wlad himself has said that AJ is the future of the division and a fantastic prospect, his movement and power will be too much for most heavys, he moves like a middleweight with heavyweight power. He just needs to shed some muscle as at the moment he is too muscle bound.

Also these talk of Bums, He knocked out Kevin Johnson recently who went the Distance with Vitali, Fury and Chisora. Please learn about boxing before knocking people. You probably think Deontay Wilder is the greatest fighter alive :rofl:
 
Joe Root not worth a mention? SPOTY a joke as always.

Conor McGregor should also have got a mention in the Overseas SPOTY. He's been exceptional in the last year, is a World Champion in the Featherweight division and is set to have the biggest fight in UFC history next weekend.
 
what about Tai Woffinden he won the world title for his sport this year ,thats twice now, you can bet he wont get a mention as the beeb dosent cover speedway.

It wasn't just BBC picking the nominations

There will always be people excelling at their sport but will miss out

Tai got a fair amount of exposure last year, I seem to remember, across various platforms. Don't know if he had a 'slot' on SPoTY as I didn't watch it!
