JMM is overrated by Ring Magazine

JMM got the tools but I think he is abit overrated.Mayweather had trouble with some fighters more so then others. He didn't beat Castillo and he had his hands full with Delahoya -could of gone either way, says alot for an old Delahoya.
Hopkins lost to Taylor, strugled with Winky and Mercado.
Pacquiao has gotten ko'd and lost to Marquez.
These may be old fights but they were Judeing Marquez on old fights.
He is a good fighter but sometimes he doesnt use his head like in the Chris John fight he his mind was into the fight. He didt pressure Chris John into a brawl from the HL I seen and he was putting straight right to the body when Chris John was far away.
As for his fight with Barrera it more Barrera lost than Marquez won.
here is my top 10 list:
1- Floyd Maywather
2- Manny Pac
3- Calzaghe
4- Hopkins
5- Israel Vazquez
6- Miguel Cotto
7- Wlad Klitcho
8- Jaun Diaz
9-JMM
10- Ivan CalderonComment

JMM just had a close fight with MAB (who isn't in the top ten p4p), lost to John, and only drew with Pacquiao (when he should have lost). Jimrex Jaca who is nowhere Top 100 gave him hell. The Ring obviously erred in placing him top three with this showing.
Who do you think won the Pacquiao-JMM fight? If you answer Pacquiao, you should say that JMM is overrated because JMM got the p4p ranking after that fight. If you say JMM then you are nothing but a Kapitan Tiago.Comment

maybe Israel could replace JMM in the list.
but right now Israel is the man to beat at that weighclass same as Hatton is the man to beat at 140.Comment

I think vasquez deserves to be in the top 5, he just won in a fight that will probably 2007's fight of the year.Comment

A highlight reel can make any fighter look like the winner. You havn't seen the Marquez v. John fight? I'll hook you up if you don't have a copy i think i still have the fight on my computer.
Marquez is older now, his reflexes arn't what they used to be. He fought John in his hometown. To bad John wouldn't come over here an fight Marquez. John imo, fights very similar to Manuel "mantecas" Medina.
I had Marquez winning the fight and the ref was a lousy ref. John had his trunks up to his shoulders and the ref called the punchs low. Bad ref, and hometown crowd, mixed in with a runner like John, everytime John landed even if he didn't land, the crowd would scream and roar. At the end of the day Marquez got robbed.Comment
