Most Overrated Boxers Of All Time?

[Drugs]

I read a lot of key board warriors going on about how various boxers are overrated and never as good as people say. I hear the endless:

"Mike Tyson only fought bums/C grade boxers"

"Muhammad Ali wasn't even close to being the greatest"

"Rocky Marciano's unbeaten streak was bull****"

"Floyd Gayweather"

So if someone can get it out there and tell me what their most overrated or underrated boxer is? Personally I think Mayweather is super ****in overrated, especially for running from pacman for so long. And Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali and Marciano will always be in my personal top ten boxers.

The top guys ducked tyson till he was out of his prime. And to Call Ali Overrated is blasphemous.

I think too many people fail to bring up Jake La'motta as one of boxings greatest chins, whenever anyone thinks of middleweight people think of Sugar Ray and no body else. Even though Sugar Ray is the Greatest of All time.

If you asked the average person on the street to list the 3 greatest boxers of all time, their answer would be:
1. Muhummad Ali
2. Mike Tyson
3. Hulk Hogan

They would have no idea who Ray Robinson, Joe Louis or Willie Pep were, and would probably think they were MMA fighters, if not baseball players. If you mentioned Rocky they would say "Dude, movies don't count".

Take that how you will. It depends on your definition of overrated, but some fighters definitely receive DISPROPORTIONATE mainstream attention.

Margarito by far. This guy was a glorified D class fighter that probably cheated most of his career.

The second he got caught his record became 1-3, he got stopped two times and retired.
