Do British Posters Overhype Their Fighters?

[Addition]

If you're impressed by a guy who dominated the weakest division in all of boxing and finally moved up in weight class once a fight against a 43-year-old came up, then you seriously need to watch more boxing...

You're the one who needs to watch more boxing.

The British definitely overhype and overrate their fighters....Look at David Haye for example, he knocked out some bums in the ****tiest division in boxing, the cruiserweight division....Now all these ****ing UK idiots are saying he will clean out the heavyweight division and become the undisputed champ...What a bunch of dellusional morons.

If you weren't such a 'Klitschko' ****sucker, maybe someone might take your opinion seriously.

Your boy fights with fat ****s who move about as quick as statues for gods sake!

Heavyweight boxing is a ****ing disgrace, so you can't say **** about the Cruiserweight division you knob!

What they forget is that the super-middleweight division has only been around for the last 25 years. All the greats only passed throught that weight class and moved on up. James Toney might be the only one who stayed for a good period of time there but even he now has moved up and won a cruiserweight title and slugged it out with some of the best heavyweights around showing his all-time great skills. Could Joe the super-middleweight do that? I doubt it. That slapping **** wouldn't hold up above 175 and he and his promoter Warren knew it. If they had confidence in Joe's abilities, they would have had him crossing that pond a long time ago unstead of milking his title, selling out arenas locally for 10 years.

You honestly, seriously think Jones would duck a guy who barely beat a washed up, shell of his former self Hopkins? The same guy Jones dominated in his prime. You're a joke...

go read some books, watch some boxing and talk to me when you gain some knowledge, till then don't even bother with these laughable replies...

Yes they do just like they overhype their football players and their national team. Always think they're better than what they really are. Always belive they're going to win The world cup...etc

Oh yeah, Hopkins wasn't in his prime when he was 29 since he's in his prime right now at 43. I forgot...

I rather go down as one of the greatest middleweight - a division that produced some great champions like Hagler, Monzon etc,. then be hiding out at super-middle defening a WBO title pretending to be a champion.

I guess that's how Zolte Erdei plans to make an impact in the light-heavy division. Defens his WBO title in Germany against nobodies while the best light-heavies Dawson, Tarver, Glen Johnson, Jones all fight each other.

And once they're all gone, he will come out of the woodwork claiming to be the best because he has 10 or 12 title defenses in the bank.
