    I guess some people treat overrating and dislike the same.

    People didn't give him much of a chance against dela Hoya, and more so with Hatton. Now after he slaughtered those two, he's still overrated.

    When he held Marquez to a draw and then won, he's still overrated.

        Manny is embraced a lot in the Fillipines, not in the US. Manny does not speak English very well, If he knew how to speak English better then he would most likely be the face of boxing in the US as well as world wide. I think his fame in the US is pretty cool despite his horrible English.

          This is what i was meaning....In his homeland hes very welcomed in everyway. Just here its nothing compared at all. The English may have alot to do with it.

              How can you say Bruce Lee is overrated? During his time in the 60's and early 70's there was no one even close to what he was. If you where alive or old enough to see him and appreciate him during that time you would say different. He is a martial artist and he didnt have mma around like UFC, Otherwise he would of dominated it. All these younglings look at him now and compare him to todays fighters and just dont get it.

                He has recently been compared to Ali, right now he is being overrated because of an impressive ko win. Hopefully people will come to their senses and realize that talk about his ATG status at this point should be nonexistent.

                  Maybe the word isn't underrated... it's more likely "underestimated"

                  underestimated by fighters who said they are bigger than him, underestimated by fighters who said he was one-dimensional.

                  but most of all...underestimated by boxing fans.

                    Was casa more skilled than pac? how come he didn't last long with JMM?

                    Pac's skills underrated here?
                    casamayor does have more skills than pac, but casamayor is shot

                      Because skill doesn't equal chin, and Casa was well shopworn.
