        Not overrated at all.

        Underrated is what he is.

        Bute and Canelo are two current overrated fighters right now.

          Those are the three best fighters in the sport. You're just mad that they clowned on your God. All three guys would beat Manny and one of them arguably did. Don't get me wrong I think Pacquiao is one of the best fighters out there but the love some of his fans have for him is outrageous.

                I also think Bernard Hopkins is an extremely overrated LHW, at MW though he definitely proved himself as an ATG. He's a great fighter and all and accomplished great things, but his resume at LHW isn't very strong. He did beat Tarver, also gave Calzaghe the toughest fight of his career and beat Pascal. Pavlik is a MW that moved up 10lbs to 170, he never did anything at SMW. Tarver was never good either, and I think Pascal is extremely overrated and have always thought he was overrated.

                Pascal has a win over Dawson but that night I think anybody could've beaten Dawson, he just wasn't in it mentally and for whatever reason just didn't throw any punches. When he did throw punches he hurt Pascal, as well as bothered Pascal greatly. He could've taken out Pascal in any round of the fight if he just threw punches.

                Pascal's only other fight was a UD loss to Froch.

                  ummm Bernard Hopkins is NOT overrated. Name 5 fighters that fought better competition than Bernard Hopkins? Name fighters that had better longevity than Bernard Hopkins?

                  Bernard Hopkins now is probably alot better than these upcoming fighters...

                    Some of Hopkins wins are over rated, i stand to this day that those DLH, Pavilk & Trinidad win's don't mean **** & i don't care what the odds were on 2 of those fights, none of those 3 boxers had accomplished anything in that division, DLH struggled in that division period & most importantly Hopkins size advantage was far superior.

                      I am laughing at some of the people who said Andre Ward, truly funny.

                      You can't really say either of the Klitschko's, because there aren't too many great HW around, so we'll never know just how good either were.

                      I'd say Dmitry Pirog, Lucian Bute, and Miguel Cotto are my top 3.

                      Pirog, besides the win over a solid fighter Jacobs (was really more up-and-coming than anything), who has he beat??? Bute, he has a couple alright wins, but not the wins that Ward or Froch have. People say Ward-Bute is a super fight, not so much. If Lucian beats Froch, than we can talk about how good he really is. And I only say Cotto because after the win last month, people just naturally seem to believe he's a legit threat to Pacquiao or Mayweather, when he really just beat up on a way past it Margarito, and still got caught a few times by Antonio. Don't get me wrong, Cotto is one of the top 154 lb fighters in the world, but I'd give Lara, Kirkland, Alvarez a real shot to beat him pretty good. Cotto is past his prime-still good. No better or worse since his loss to Manny in 2009, but nowhere near where he was in 2007 or 2008, since the KO loss to Margarito.

                      Pirog, Bute, and Cotto.
