Is Tim Tszyu overrated?

[cace]

i dont think hes overrated if anything he is underrated alot of people dont rate him highly at all and think hes an easybeat for tony
but after the harrison fight alot more people will jump on the bandwagon he will win and win very impressively
he very well could be the sleeping giant of the division a bit unproven but u can only beat whats put in front of you and he will beat tony

Overated by whom?

He's a good fighter, I think we've established that much. The Harrison fight should give us a much better idea where he stands in the division and whether he can go all the way.

...by who? I barely see anybody talking about him honestly and I certainly don't see anybody hyping him up like that

Exactly, I don't know which claims about his abilities I'm supposed to evaluate to see if they over rate him or not.

[moochi]

He is over rated, not highly, but he is because of his surname.

I don't think he is overrated but he needs more fights. The Harrison fight will prove a lot. I am expecting him to loose but will be impress if he wins and will give him a better chance against Charlo.

Most thing here if it was Charlo he was fighting he was going to loose, it is not calling him overated, Charlo is that good.

You are right. It's a mental lapse on my part. It's supposed to be "underrated." It's true, I've rarely seen anyone giving him any chance of winning against Charlo. Funny part is I would not have realized my mistake had I not come across your post. And so... you might want to answer the question now if you like. Is he underrated?

Jeez mane , kid has 21 fights ...............Nobody is calling for him to be on the P4P list ...

He's not overrated. He's doing what young boxers are supposed to do. Climb the ranks, and then challenge for a world title. He cleaned out basically everyone in his weight class in Australia before coming to the USA. What more could you ask?


Also, I think Harrison is a tougher opponent than Charlo. So props to him. He could have taken an easy fight when Charlo pulled out.

[lopetego]

He's a bumbeater with a lot to prove, he's fought nobody yet and time is tickin away

I think he'll never amount to anything great, it seems that's the inescapable fate of all the sons of great boxers

Good to hear that, because I think Tim is underrated. And the Harrison fight might be enough to prove whether I've read Tzsyu's skills right or not.
