    Are you talking overrated as in looking back on it now? Or someone people regard as an "All-Time-Great" who never really deserved the accolade?

              I'd have to concur on Felix Trinidad and Jarmain Taylor. But since we're talking all time greats here, I'd have to nominate Roberto Duran. Might catch me some flack here, and I do love "hands of stone" but his record against the best competition in his era is horrible.

                    Another one I agree with, even more so than Duran. He only ever beat one serious opponet in Spinks. Other than that he has more tin cans on his record than Roy Jones Jr. (And I know I'll catch flack for that comment as well.)
