Brooklyn gave up on Zab a while ago, why don't you do the same?

Depends on who is rating each fighter of course, but the consensus list has to be the following:
Wladimir Klitschko - I don't deny he is a talented fighter, but he's beaten nobody serious and has been beaten by some seriously questionable opposition. Certainly not the badass hall-of-famer some people claim.
Edison Miranda - Maybe he isn't overrated anymore, but anyone with knowledge could have told you before the Abraham fight exactly what he is; a wild, defence-free slugger.
Kelly Pavlik - Let me start by saying that I'm a huge fan of Pavlik (as I list in my sig), but he is being seriously overhyped at the moment. Kelly is getting the Tye Fields treatment, although people aren't joking, having only beaten one quality fighter in Jermain Taylor and I don't even rate Taylor that much.
Antonio Margarito: Some people talk as if he'll destroy either Mayweather or Cotto. I just don't see it. He already got exposed by Williams.
Zab Judah - As a lot of people have said, he's come up short when it counts.
Oscar De La Hoya: As not many people have said, he's come up short when it counts.
Even the best fighters can be overrated by the worst fans. All the fighters I've listed are good fighters, just not quite what has been said of them.

2. Mayweather= it seems Competition is getting better and it was time for him to get out. its about the money, no doubt. But dont claim to be the best, if you haven't fought the best.
3. Pacman= impressive fights against Marquez..thats it. All the others were on their way out, out of prime. He's ony fought one real good boxer in his prime and that was Marquez, thats it, noone else. David Diaz and Hatton arent real tests. Those are no brainers, for the money and to build up the hype, just too make more money for the next fight and so on.
...Hatton is overated but he's the real test for Manny?...I don't get it...
