GGGs underrated yet he has no wins over the top guys at his weight class. And Floyds overrated even though everybody he fights is top 3 in his division. Fanatic logic is harder than taking logic in college.
      Couldn't have said it better myself it's all based on personal opinions depending on who you like and fighters that rub u the wro way

        By far GGG is the most overrated. He has beaten just a bunch of bums.

            matt macklin isn't a special talent, but he's a contender at 160. golovkin destroyed him.

              Ignoring the fanboys, I'd say nobody really stands out as overrated.

              GGG: Based on his recent performances, and Martinez looking way past it, I'd say it's reasonable to assume that he is a top Middleweight. Is that such a long shot?

              Matthysse: People think he can KO Garcia. So speculating that #2 can beat #1 is overrating? Garcia isn't a superstar you know.

              Personally, I think Froch is a little overrated. I guess I just don't see what other people see. Actually, the whole SMW division is overrated. Some people talk like it's the meca of boxing but in fact nobody comes even near Ward.

                Definitely Danny Garcia. Sure, he has wins over some names in the sport, but a lot of that has been luck and timing.

                Good fighter, but not nearly as good as his status suggests. He'll get exposed by Matthyse, and I suspect his career will never be the same after that.

                  timing is luck now?

                  khan comes in swanging, has a flat out bad chin, and danny is a counterpuncher with a good left hook.

                    most of this thread will have answers that go like this

                    [insert least liked boxer here]

                    Away from this, i'd say Manuel Charr as he somehow can worm his way into decent fights...

                    Right now i'd say Chavez Jr and Broner, but this won't be the same in a years time, especially in Broners case.

                      By timing I meant when he fought certain fighters. It had nothing to do with setting up a good punch, which I can appreciate as much as anyone.
