              No particular order

              Zab Judah - By all rights this man should have no fans, as he is a fraud and has basically bee playing a hoax on his supporters for years.

              Ivan Calderon - They say he is this great boxer, but where is the proof? All those fights and only a pair of wins over Karass to show for it? He is only in the top 10, because writers and fans want to appear like they are insiders by mentioning him.

              Chris Arreola - I guess its just a sign of the times, that this man gets as much praise as he does. In other eras he'd just be another guy, today he is considerd a big time contender.

              Glen Johnson - Probably a contreversial pick, but sometimes I think that people get told by him that all his fights are robberies, and they start to believe that every fight of his that is remotely close, is automatically a robbery. Maybe some were, but sometimes guys actually do just fall short.

              Antonio Tarver - That this guy's name ever gets mentioned in the same sentence with HoF saddens me.

              Mikkel Kessler - He is good, don't get me wrong, but his awsomeness is a creation of Calzaghe fans, who love to elevate the importance of guys Joe has beaten. I remember before this fight was ever made many Calzaghe fans ripping this guy as a nothing who didnt deserve a fight with Joe, but after he lost to JC he was suddenly a P4P contender.

              Edwin Valero - Man is still more hype than substance. Notice all of his best opponents have pretty much been limited brawler types. Needs to deversify his opponent selection.

              Rocky Juarez - Dunno how people rate him, but someone out there must love him, because he keeps getting big fights he doesnt deserve, and keeps getting gift decisions.

              Cristian Mijares - Thisone isn't so much true anymore since his last 2 losses., but for awhile their they were hyping this guy as top 10 p4p, and I never saw it. I didn't even see it in him before Darchinyan crushed him.

              David Haye - His fans are almost as irrational as he is,and thats not easy.

                Good list except for Kessler i think he is a good fighter his management sucks though. Let him fight US to see how good he really is.

                  I think he is is good. Perhaps with better management he could prove he is as great as people say he is, but honestly alot of his hype comes from two faced Calzaghe fans, who ripped him as an undeserving fighter when he was looking to fight Joe, but after JC beat him, he suddenly was P4P quality in their eyes.

                  Overated doesn't mean that a guy sucks, just means he recieves some praise he doesnt deserve.
