      Both are underrated if anything, why the f uck would anyone hate these two fighters?. They both are attacking fighters who put on exciting fights. Do people prefer to watch Bradley fight? or Alexander fight? than these two because i know who i would rather watch.

Maidana is not overrated, as many of us know the tools he possesses. He's not the most skilled, but he is definitely competitive against the elite of 140, and one can make a case for him being undefeated. Not to mention he demolished the guy who is going to face who many regard as the best in the sport on Sep 16. So what is it? The guy is certainly world class.

        Matthysse, however seemingly appears overrated, as his exposure came at the hands of Judah- who Amir destroyed- and a close fight with Alexander who technically was coming off two losses against Bradley and Kotelnik. Perhaps, his domination over Corley who Maidana had struggled with put him in the same perceptive level as Maidana. who da **** knows up in hurrr?
        It was a competetive fight but no, just no. he clearly lost.

          The fight with Khan no way could have gone either way. The only rounds I would have given MAidana were the last couple. Even in the 12 maidana looked to have punched himself out and khan maybe come back to win the round with some late flurrys of punches.

          Also Maidana was gifted a win against a very very very old Morales who IMO will get beat down by Lucas when they fight in september.

            For starters Maidana could have won rounds 3,6 and 7 against Khan round 4 was close as well but prob a Khan round. Morales didn't win against Maidana, Morales performed well but still lost 8-4 in rounds or at best 7-5 in rounds. Maidana was not gifted a decision against Morales its just not true.

            What is true is that Maidana should have performed better against Morales, but i will give credit to Erik for a much better performance then a lot of people expected.
