Which Fighters Are Overhated?

[taskgoal]

- -What about the NY comissioner and daddy who approved the gloves in advance?

Other people being involved doesn't make Lewis or Resto any less de****able.

You think Lewis/Resto are over-hated? We can’t hate them enough.

I would say Liston.

- -Never said it did, but without the NY Commish and Daddy's culpability, the tampering would've been discovered.

It was their job!!!

- -The K bros!

Widely dismissed as robotic Russians never mind they were Ukrainian by fans weaned on HGH Stallones Rocky cartoons, they completely emasculated American heavies and DKing such that even the Bobfather ditched heavies for the Pacquiao era.

Their blunt force surgery still greatly pains heavywt boxing today, but they did achieve a level of respect in the Ring and boxrec ratings in their day.

Vitalie I would agree on but Vlad and his grab and hold... Not a very skillful way of achieving victory.

Liston for sure.

- -Wlad one of the highest hvy Ko% in history.

Didn't grab any more than Lewis who was used by Manny to reshape Wlad.

- -JCCJr has a legion of haters declaring he's no JCCSr.

Well, DUH!

3 losses and a world title with over 50 wins ain't shabby, and he did it skipping out on training camps.

Well not really a common name that gets mentioned but Eusebio Pedroza was kind of a dirty fighter who may have not been too well liked by the hardcore fans and other boxers back in the day. Back then I was hoping Sal Sanchez would get the chance to put the beating on him but then Sal died in the the car crash in 82. Tragic. That honor fell to McGuigan a couple years later when he handled a past his best Pedroza. Right time right place for Barry.

- -Speak of the Irish and Tyson Fury casts a shadow over the lot.

Drives them Brits crazy!
