    How can you say he is overrated? Check Bradley's 140 resume. Except Khan, he fought everybody. Pretty much cleaned it out.

    He hasnt been as great at 147 but its been all big fight. Provo is retrospect was a big fight. Didnt know it at the time

      Rigo is overrated, he has skills but he hasn't fought anyone other than Donaire and is getting hyped up over that one win.

          I think Mathysse get's overrated quite a lot more than Bradley.
          Exactly, Mattysse was overhyped, I told people Danny Garcia would school him they laughed. They even said Lucas was the next Pacquiao or better lol.

            U must be trolling. Desert Storm would beat the hell out of Rios for 12 rounds. Their power is probably comparable at 147.

            Bradley would whup ur boy from pillar to post. Only redeeming quality of Rios is that chin.

                Tim Bradley only solid win is Lamont PEDerson. And who knows if this was pre-testosterone pellet Peterson.

                Devon Alexander was OK...but Devon was overrated at the time having arguably lost to Koetelnik in ST.LOUIS in a showcase fight. Devon was a 12-1 favorite in that fight as well.


                After that Pacquiao beat him twice and Tim Bradley had the worst performance in a big time fight in the rematch. He was literally gassed out after round 5, having tried to swing wildly for a KO while being feather fisted. WTF!

                Ruslan Provinikov almost made this guy a human vegteable and Ruslan just got outboxed by CHRIS ALGEREI

                The JMM fight was actually VERY CLOSE, much closer than what HBO tried to make you believe. But if you think Tim looked good in this fight I don't know if you have a pair of eyes. Because Tim just used his jab (which is non-exstiant) by the way and tried to pot shot and run. JMM was landing a ton of powershots
                Not everyone can beat jmm dominately, tha way bradley did not pacquaio thats for sure, and even at this advanced stage in jmm career he is still a great fighter... i think hes underated more by fans like you, then he is overated by his own fans.... you should learn to give a little credit where credit is due, because he deserves it imo.

                  khan is the most overrated fighter today.

                  khan's best win is frickin maidana. the same maidana who struggled against a bloated shot morales and the same maidana who got embarrassed by alexander (bradley embarrassed a prime undefeated alexander and made him quit).

                  also bradley completely outboxed a rejuvenated heredia #3 p4p marquez. the same marquez who KO'ed manny cold and almost knocked alvarado out of the ring with one punch.

                    I don't think Bradley or Khan are overrated.

                    Rather, Floyd and Manny are so freakishly overrated and considered the greatest boxers to ever set foot on Earth by their fans that anyone who might fight them starts to be subjected to the same bizarre extremes to build them up or tear them down.

                    Khan is nothing special, but he is on a similar streak to Maidana before Maidana fought Floyd. So people are asking why Floyd isn't fighting Khan too when his other options are even worse.

                    Now in the UK... Khan is hilariously overrated, but all UK fighters are in the UK. The same guys who think Pulev and Povetkin are "stay busy fights" thought Haye was going to rip Wlad's head off because of the tabloids they read.

                    It seems that with the demise or pending retirement of many UK fighters, the hysterical worshiping spotlight has fallen on Khan.

                      Not sure thats been true for a long time.

                      Loads of people fell off the Khan hype early on (Limond, Gomez etc)

                      Even more fell off after Garcia/Peterson.

                      Actually hes a little bit of a laughing stock (un deserved obviously) among a lot of boxing casuals.

                      Cant speak for the British Asian community though, maybe they overrate him

                      To put it in perspective ive never heard any of my friends (boxing casuals) say they think Khan could beat Mayweather.
