Is There A Fighter That Isn't Overated??

Allan Green is probably underrated.

All I have heard about this guy is that he can only beat bums, and he will never be elite, beat an elite boxer or win a world title.

Cory Spinks is pretty underrated.

Carlos Baldomir is pretty underrated too. Everyone thinks he is the worst fighter ever.

Carlos Baldomir is probably the most underrated person in recent history.

They guy had a long jornet even though Zab wasnt 100% hisself he took the chance to spoil Zab vs Mayweather and won Zab.


Cory Spinks is good boxer and he make people look bad

Seriously though, all fighters are overrated to an extent. Some ore than others. Except for Baldmoir and Ruiz, they continuously get slagged.

I believe Juan Manuel Marquez to be underated!

To be honest, its not so much as people calling someone overrated because the boxer TRULY is overrated, or because they TRULY look at the boxer's skill and conclude that he is overrated. Most of the time, its only just about not liking the boxer's personality. Or if the boxer beat your favorite boxer. Or simply because that boxer is at the top and people are just plain jealous of him. In other words, BIASNESS is what corrupts all of us.

No matter what Mayweather does today and in the future, what Calzaghe does today and in the future, what Pacquiao does today and in the future, what Pavlik does today and in the future, etc etc etc. there will ALWAYS be doubters who would call them overrated irregardless of how good they really are and how many great opponents they've fought. My dad told me once that even the great Ali was more hated than liked when he was in the ring. Even after beating Frazier, Foreman and all the greats and being a 3-time World Heavyweight Champion, there was always doubters who ripped through Ali and labeled him as nothing special. Only when he retired did a lot of people "suddenly" realized how great he really was

Its the truth, Folks. We will always find excuses to bring people down. That's our sad nature as human beings. We will always pull down people who are more successful than us or our loved ones, our friends, our favorite boxer, actor, actress, rock band, rapper, etc etc etc. I for one am guilty of doing that many, many times.

your 100% right the world we live in that we want to bring people down.
