    Top 5 most over rated fighters in the sport

    1). Manny Pacquiao-currently the most over rated athelete in all of sports imo.

    2). Paul Williams-this guy needs to learn how to use his height and avoid punches.

    3). Lucian Bute-I like his skills, but he really lost the first Andrade fight, who has he beat Edison Miranda?

    4). Celestino Caballero-looked terrible in his last fight, against a guy who had no business beating him.

    5). Nonito Donaire-I really like him and his skills, but what has he done since beating Darchiniyan? I hope he gets a fight with Juan Manuel Lopez.

    Honorable Mention: I really like all these guys but their relatively unproven and or inexperienced Victor Ortiz, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Devon Alexander

        Co-sign. I think Donaire is really only overrated by RING magazine. I don't really see alot of fans overrating him so I wouldn't put him there.

          Most overrated:

          1. Floyd Mayweather

          2. Andre Ward

          3. Andre Berto

          4. Yuriorkis Gamboa

          5. Guillermo Rigonderoux



          Dawson, Caballero and Williams were also overrated, but not any more.

          Haye is overrated by some people in the UK, but not in the US or elsewhere.

            Both guys are very good, but I think the media over hypes them. It's not their fault.

                good list tunney, i'd have to disagree with floyd, only a real elite fighter can touch floyd more than once in a fight.

                pwilly is not overrated. losing to sergio doesn't make him overrated and he has some damn good wins.

                bute and ward should be considered about even. ward really hasn't done all that much but at least bute has looked spectacular.

                haye is waaay overrated.
