Oh Jesus the mental midget Bradley speaks! The man gifted IBHOF. The annoying little twerp needs to just pipe down and speak only when requested for input. He’s becoming another Kriegel.

You hate him like you know him. Do you?

[JOITATS]

Overrated is a subjective term.

If you consider Tank a P4P tp 10 guy?
Then after that performance, you have to knock him off the list.

Is he still #1 at 135. Possibly.
Shakur hasn't done **** to claim that, and no one knows if vasyl is coming back or not.

'yes moose spot on!!! hes fighting lower level guys infrequenty and this is resulting him in not being ready to fight higher level guys more frequently LMAOOO makes perfect sense!!!!'

Yes that was the point & you have encapsulated it surprisingly coherently. Inactivity ruins boxers & there are hundreds of examples, including dozens of Gary Russells. If I managed a fighter I'd try & make sure he got out at least 3, ideally 4, times a year. Don't let 'ring rust' ruin you.

Overrated is harsh as it’s not hard to see the talent and power he has
The fact he doesn’t use all his tools is just another story

[1Eriugenus]

Motorhead, he doesn't use his tools because he's allowed hisself to become inactive, lazy & indisciplined. He needs to fight regularly. Iron sharpens iron.

[Basco]

He is definitely not overrated but he is a waste of talent. He has chosen the money way instead of perusing greatness.

Having a guy with only a couple wins over decent fighters and no top level wins on the p4p list is the definition of overrated, not to mention all the rehydration clause BS and half his opponents moving up to fight him.

They jumped the gun and put him there based on future expectations...those expectations were never fulfilled and he just lost to one of his hand picked teeny tiny opponents. He clearly was overrated and now we need to actually judge him based on what he's done which is meh level at best. Next time maybe wait until fighters do something worthy before saying how great they are?

At no point just prior to the dropping to a knee, did Davis show anything bothering his vision. In the moments before (watched a dozen times) he did NOT squint or paw his eyes at all. I don’t think he was hurt, I think he likely thought he was gonna get undone and didn’t know how to respond, almost like a coward. And the American system gave Haney a draw against garcia? How does it work in that chit country, it’s shocking and clearly because Davis is a cash machine, poor ole roach gets a draw. they don’t even count knockdowns as knockdowns. What next? Half a point for a nearly knockdown? Or was Davis ahead before the fight? The whole of boxing should be against this and let these kunts know it.

Amen to this, clearly a person who was watching what everyone saw, but with the real view of events and the consideration of Davis’s unbalanced record in his own actual weight class. Also, his ability reached its boundary against roach. He had to dog it with Cruz and wouldn’t take the rematch. Everyone will want a piece of his azzzzz now. I bet the little kunt retires. It’s gonna be back to weight advantage fights only. Shouldn’t be allowed.
