    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


    I think you nailed the list. But Nonito is one big win away from getting off that list and making it to he real deal. He just looked really good in his fight skill set and technique wise. But he does belong on this list. (same with Devon skill set and technique he's good to go)

              Bro, read this carefully ok. I will try to type slower. Pacquiao is often compared to Duran, Leonard, Ali, etc. do you want me to post links? I can. IMO Pacquiao is a top 50 ATG at best, yet I hear people proclaiming him as GOAT because he has belts in 8 different weight classes, LMAO. I like how you try to be unbiased but you're not much better than the average ******* the truth hurts, and Pacquiao is very over rated. IMO he's not even the best fighter in his own weight class, sorry.
              If Pac really was a top 50 ATG 'at best,' Mayweather would have taken the millions to beat the **** out of him by now, PEDs or not. I agree that comparing him to greats like Duran and Leonard is definitely overreaching and a bit ludicrous especially since Pac is still active anyways. But the ones that are genuinely comparing them like that are just the bias'ed Pac fans anyways.

              Your list is really short-sighted as well as your arguments coming off as from a person who only has a base knowledge of the sport. Way to include a guy (Celestino) who really wasn't overrated to begin with since he never really was a star and is just coming off a big upset loss AFTER the fact you ****ing ******. That should render your list and your opinions void off the bat. Nobody's saying Donaire has beaten world beaters since Darchinyan. He's had promotional issues which maybe you as a ****** fan have managed to overlook. They're saying that his skills are world class or at the least on the cusp of it. And 'they' isn't even a ton of people.

                Best way to claim a boxer is overrated: Wait for him to lose, put him up on the list with the reason being "He just lost to someone he was supposed to beat."

                Am I right?

                  You're entitled to your opinion, I disagree with you.

                    You have to admit that Celestino Caballero look like a unseasoned amateur in that fight.

                    I think he belongs on that list not because he lost, But because of his general boxing skills he displayed in that fight. He literally looked like someone picked him out of the crowd and put boxing gloves on him. Now that may have been because he did not trained and lacked conditioning.

                    Poor conditioning can and will effect you technique, but damn he looked NOT like a professional fighter.
