Most overrated fighter in boxing today

Juan Diaz. How that fat boy got rated so far higher than David Diaz is ridiculous. He himself never wanted a piece of David

Three-way tie between Kelly Pavlik, Joe Calzaghe, and Wlad Klitschko. All bums, every single one.

Nice first post.

Um, maybe by winning 3 world titles individually, and it was well known that David was the weakest of the 4 title holders.

You forgot Ruslan Chagaev, Firat Arslan, Zsolt Erdei, Lucian Bute, Arthur Abraham, Sergiy Dzinziruk, Andreas Kotelnik, Paulie Malignaggi, all current world title holders.

So why exactly did juan call out Paq immediately after beating julio instead of taking the much more easier route of grabbing the last belt from david which could have placed him in instant greatness and arguably rival any of Paq's accomplishments??

Nice first post.

Whatevs. Anyone from middleweight up is suspect in this era. Up until around the 80s, boxing was equal or more popular than football and basketball, but today, football and basketball make so much more money that any premier athlete that would box in 160 or up will become a running back or a point guard instead. That's why being the best in those divisions today means absolutely nothing. You have to look around welterweight for the premier athletes.

Much, much, much more money in fighting Pac, not to mention more fame in the long run. It's impossible to hold on to 3 belts and defend them all, let alone 4, plus I didn't see David clamoring to fight Juan.

You can't be overrated if everyone else knows you suck. No one ever writes about how awesome Ruslan Chagaev is, or puts Firat Arslan on their PFP lists.

People don't think Paulie sucks, but he ain't that bad anyway. (Ain't that good either, but good enough not to be overrated.)

LOL 160 pound running back or point guard? When is the last time you seen a even 180 pounder at running back? You lost all credibility with that statement. And you don't find all that many 6'0+ tall men that are 160 pounds on a court.
