Overrated - Nonito Donaire
This guy is rated in the ring mag's top 10 ahead of several more accomplished fighters.....based on what? He impressively stopped Vic Darchinyan and after that he has done little besides stop an aging Luis Maldonado.
I've seen people say this guy could beat Juanma if they fought tomorrow and things of that nature. I don't see it yet. The kid has skills but I'd like to see him tested a bit more before speculating on his success at higher weights.
Underrated - Steve Cunningham
Cunningham is underrated in my book. He's more an athlete than a natural born fighter, but he has proven a lot under the radar in the last few years.
Guillermo Jones
K. Wlodarcyk (sp?)
Kelvin Davis
Wayne Braithwaite
S. Rothmann
Marco Huck
He has beaten a lot of top guys in that division. I think Cunningham has the ability to win fights on the outside if he can be a little more consistent with his jab. A lot of people jump to the Adamek fight to gauge his ability, but he gave Adamek a pretty tough test and I believe he wasn't totally on top of his game. As we all know, Adamek is a pretty good fighter too.
