    Most overrated boxing country?

    Which country seems to produce the most overrated boxers on a consistent basis? I have not included places like eastern europe, Philippines or places that have had very little historical significance in boxing and/or have too small of a sample size to consider them a major influence in boxing.

    America. For the size of the place and the amount of champs they have compared to much smaller nations like say Great Britain is laughable.

                Over hyped boxers. You yanks want to say us Brit's but saying that, we have had Hatton, Haye could be on the list. Maybe Lewis, so how many is that really?

                  I'd have to say the states on this one. How many times have we seen the next Tyson or the new future face of boxing fail to do so?

                    Right now its USA. And mostly among lwws: Judah, Alexander, Bradley. It used to be UK, when Lewis and Bruno boxed. Calzaghe is not overated btw. If anything, he's underated in USA. Junior Witter was also overated and maybe even Hatton, at least until he lost to Mayweather. I'm a fan of Ricky however. He just wasn't as great as Brits made him look.
