    Those who chose 'underrated' are ******. He became the P4P king how can he be underrated? So 'overrated' is the only choice. That suits him best.

      this is the main difference between real greats like leonard and fakes like floyd. the first thing you think of when you think of leonard are his fights with benitez, duran, hearns and hagler. does something fantasy oriented like p4p ever enter your mind? no. but floyd on the other hand the first things that enter your mind are p4p and ppv. you never think oh floyd mayweather he beat so and so it's always he's the p4p king or he sold 2 million ppvs. nothing of actual boxing substance to proclaim him great.

          BH knocked DLH out, and Floyd split decisioned him. Thats why Floyd is overated, always happy to do just enough.
          Floyd should have beat DLH like hed never been beat before, if he was special. Hes one of the best right now, but that is the only acclaim he can get.
