When you have two differences of opinion and aren't sure if you fall on this side or that, I look and this poll question, analyse it, and come to the conclusion that they're both shit.

Who is More Overrated, Canelo or Broner?

Well the Broner hype is pretty much gone now thankfully. We'll see how Canelo handles Angulo. I still think he's overrated considering his biggest test before Mayweather was Trout and to me he lost 5 rounds. And outside of Trout his resume is a joke.

I don't see how you would count Litzau as legit for Broner, but not include Mosley, Cintron, and Baldomir on Canelo's resume. And Miguel Vazquez twice.
Vazquez wasn't at his best weight honestly. He fights at 135...Canelo fights at 154 and is a huge 154
That is not a great resume
I'm sorry
I think people are picking Canelo as less overrated because they hate Broner so much. He just has better resume than Saul does

Broner is good although he was overrated before the Maidana loss. He has very poor reflexes for such a young man.

Both guys started their careers at welterweight. Vazquez holds a height and reach advantage over Alvarez . Alvarez was around 16 and Vazquez 20 ,if I'm not mistaken ,so basically Canelo was still a skinny boy and nowhere near as thick as he is now. Weight was not an issue, in fact Vazquez had all the advantages. He won a SD and two years later earned a UD, and aside from Bradley is the only guy to beat Vazquez.
I could be wrong but I think Rhodes was top 10 when they fought

It's amazing to me that Canelo is "overrated" when he and Lara have the same top win, but Lara is now seen as this monster (yet struggled vs friggen Vanes and Molina)

Canelo fought Ryan Rhodes in his first fight after getting the belt! I agree Canelo shouldn't have got to fight Hatton for the vacant belt but that isn't holding on to the belt "for 2 years" before fighting a legit 154!
FYI Rhodes is a much more legit opponent than Litzau, tell us why you don't think Mosley, Cintron and Baldo don't count?
I am one of those who thought that Trout beat Alvarez, but that's irrelevant now he's got some good names on his resume!
You mentioned Ponce for Broner yet dismissed trout for Alvarez!? Broner lost to ponce more clearly than Alvarez to trout!, Broner also lost to Quintero quite clearly! You also mentioned about Canelos big weight advantage over opponents? What of Broner's weight advantage over guys at 130 (a division where he was given a title also, and fought nobody at the weight) and 135, where he fought one legit guy in De Marco! He'll Broner outweighed Maidana on fight night but you don't mention that!
People say Canelo is not as overrated as Broner because it's true, not because of the hate!Last edited by toshmurph; 02-25-2014, 07:27 PM.

Neither has impressed me much in terms of being the next major superstar,, Fernando Vargas was a much better prospect than canelo
Broner hasnt headlined any ppv yet, let alone headlining one after an embarrassing loss
Canelo has the most hype of any up coming fighter, so it has to be Canelo
