    I love **** like this.

    Squabbs just trapped himself in the bathroom like Carlito Brigante.

      Margarito is obviously overrated. Still a great talent, but some people think waaaaaay to much of him.

      And i personally think Zab Judah is overrated just because he stopped spinks. He got destroyed by Mayweather and beat up pretty good by Baldomir.
      what are you talking about. maywather beat judah by 2 points and knocked floyd down

          I beleive that any trainer will be over rated when his boxer reaches the top. Angelo Dundee, Emanuel Staward. People think that bringing in a world renown fighter will somehow make a boxer win. It's not the trainer who's in there getting hit. Just look at "John the gay man Ruiz" who the **** is his trainer and what has he done and yet, Ruiz became champ. What a funny world it is.

            Teddy atlas is an overrated trainer.

            Manny may get overrated by some now but look at his track record and who he's worked with. Look at some of the game plans he's done.

            helped mccall beat lewis, and capitalize on lewis's balance problems.

            helped lewis improve his balance problems and made him a better fighter.

            devised the game plan for holyfield in the return bout with bowe.

            trained hearns to the top, from hearns's early days in the kronk

              I KNOW Emanuel Steward is overrated.

              I think ALOT of fighters are overrated.

              I think several promoters can't be good at what they do.


              Don't hold back now...
              Steward is far from over rated, in fact I would call him one of the best trainers on the planet. The most over rated trainer hands down goes to Buddy Mcgirt.

                  I don't know of too many people that say Floyd Sr. is a great trainer.

                  Of course Floyd Sr himself counts for about 100 people with his self-praise.

                    Well not on here but ive heard it and he gets decent press but for me he is little more than pathetic!
                    U got that right, the guy thinks he is the star of the show not Oscar or Floyd or Who Ever! Egotistical Maniac!

                      I agree with you on McGirt... He is completely overrated...I think that Steward has caused his own problems because of his part-time triaining habits as he seems to step in with any fight who can make some good money...
