    Like I Said....Battle of the Overrateds

    What was that?

    A nothing fight with two vanilla, mediocre boxers. Headbutts and sloppy boxing.

    One for the ages!

    Or not.

    Amir on his game absolutely murks both of these guys.

    True story.

    both were equally matched and niether wanted to risk too much.

    i never have thought either to be anything special,no future p4p that people hope they would be,but just pretty good fighters.

    no way does either beat mayweather or pac,and im not so sure either definatly beats marquez.

    i expect those 3 options to all be tied up with each other and thier own divisions fighters.

      Part of the sloppiness was due to a style clash IMO.

      But if we're being honest, all of the guys at the top of 140 are overrated. Khan matches up well with both of them though.

      The fighter that was underrated in all this is probably Maidana.

          theyre ok. I dont know why people expect legendary fights every time two top guys fight one another in the division. still top fighters in the division, but I say that Amir Khan is the best in the divison.

              The 140 Pound division as a whole is overrated.

                It's not on the same level as bantamweight, but it's one of the best in the sport.

                The fact is, genuine, highly skilled and talented fighters are few and far between, so a division like 140 can be one of the best despite not really having many, if any at all.

                    I agree with that. On second thought maybe the division isnt overrated. Maybe the fighters are all more evenly matched. Khan-Bradley will say alot.
