Who is the most overrated fighter in Boxing?

[JoeKidd]

Cannot be Amir Khan. Who rates him?
Broner & Donaire.
Good fighters but who have they beaten to be on P4P lists?
GGG shows a lot of potential but hasn't done much yet...so his hype is based on expectations. Same with Matthysse and Garcia.

[Triumph 916]

A lot of ppl on here praise the hell out of an up in comer like GGG, who I enjoy watching but haven't fought anybody that made me think he was the next big thing...

Lucas gets beat in a couple of close fights then K.O's Peterson & now he's an unstoppable force in the minds of many on this forum...

Ppl only look North at 154/160 for fights for Floyd but call him overrated...this guy should wait a couple years before fighting Floyd (making Floyd that much older) then he'll be ready...dumb@$$ logic.

I can go on & on...it all depends on your agenda...EVERYBODY IS UNDER/OVERRATED on here...that's why I don't mind fighters controlling their own careers because so called fans of the sport will pick apart & ***** on every opponent in order to keep their agenda alive.

LOL at everyone mentioning Khan and Donaire. These two are the most unfairly hated active boxers. It's hip to trash them these days.

To answer the question: it depends on what you mean by overrated. If you mean general popularity that is out of proportion with the boxer's actual ability/accomplishments, then it's probably Canelo. If you mean unwarranted and inexplicable popularity among hardcore fans, then I would say Miguel Vazquez.

how's Bradley overrated? He beat Peterson, Abregu, Alexander, Witter, Holt, Ruslan, Miguel Vazquez and was on his way to beating Nate Campbell.

I wouldn't say he's a very elite fighter up there with Mayweather and Marquez, but he's in the top 10 p4p

can the people that think Bradley is overrated come and respond to this please? Maybe I don't post on this site enough and see how Bradley is getting rated on here

He beat a few B/C level fighters at 140lbs and ducked his main challenger in Khan to fight an 80 year old Casamayor. Looked completely out of his depth against Pacquiao and then got pummelled around the ring in a close fight against a serviceable but pretty one dimensional Provodnikov.

Yet his fans and a lot of others believe he's in the top 5 Pound for Pound. Resume wise - no. And skill wise - definitely not.

He's not top 5 p4p. He's overrated if that's where people think he's at. But I'd say he can rate somewhere from 8-10.

And I think he's better suited for 140 pounds. He wasn't in the best of shape vs Ruslan and with both of them coming in at their best, I think it'd be a wide win for Bradley.

He did lose to Pacquiao who is simply a better fighter, but he won 4-3 rounds on my scorecard.

All of these new fighters in which these Networks are using desperately trying to groom them as the next big thing since Pacquiao and Mayweather are almost done fighting

Broner, GGG, Matthysse, Danny Garcia, Devon Alexander, Donaire, Kell Brook, Khan, Canelo...ARE ALL ***IN OVERRATED AT THE MOMENT! That doesn't mean they are not good and that they won't be great fighters but at the moment I think all of their fanbases somewhat overrate the hell out of all those fighters
