Who is the next overhyped puncher with a thin resume to take an L in the next year?

[13777]

Peter Quillin / Danny Jacobs

David Lemieux

Deontay Wilder

Andy Lee

[AKAcronym]

now go through all the pages and see who brought him up...its comical

What I said has actually nothing to do with Mayweather...

[bojangles1987]

The sad thing is, mayweather haters talk about him more than his fans...I never brought Mayweather up in the thread


My opinion is my opinion and GGG is a good fighter but he is not great...he hasn't proved he is so I'm not gonna anoint him to a level he doesn't belong

A lot of the fans of the big punchers do this all the time....if GGG was beating the same guys by UD12 he wouldn't have all the hype....he is overrated because he is elevated to p4p level, didn't earn it. Face it.

This a boxing forum, everyone is not going to agree on everything so why are the GGG fans the only ones with their panties in a bunch??

You're not fooling anyone. We all know why you made this thread. And if Golovkin obliterates Lemieux, despite you saying don't be surprised if Lemieux wins, you'll still talk a bunch of crap about Golovkin beating no one.

I know im not fooling you because I stand by what I said....don't like it, tough....Is GGG a good fighter?....heck yea....is he top ten p4p?....no


Is he overhyped? Yes, considering there are fighters with more talent and that have accomplished more that's not getting near as much hype and fanfare


Face the facts bro....his resume is trash considering the attention he gets, when guys who are proven world champions like Klitschko, Ward, Danny Garcia, and others aren't hyped and get trashed on NSB....Dude is almost 35 and never beat a reigning champion.....not 1....that's pitiful after 30+ fights and all the hype....Look at Pacquaio's, Donaire's, Ward, Mayweather, Garcia etc resume at 30+ fights and you'll see why I said he hasn't fought nobody to get all that hype.

My vote is GGG.....remember where you heard it first.....He will look like a God facing those club fighters....He may not even get by Lemieux

GGG is the only other overhyped puncher that I am aware of in boxing today. Pacquaio has been exposed. Kovalev is a boxer/puncher and has proven that he has legitimate skills. And I don't think anyone is overhyping Deontay Wilder because most boxing fans know that he is limited skill-wise.

So, I agree with you. It will be GGG.

Let's hope and pray the exciting punchers all lose and have a sport dominated by boring ass clinchers. No more warriors, just "slick" chess players allowed baby!

Nobody is making Wilder out to be a future all-time great or great already, He has some hype but we also know he is limited in some areas and touch on that. Some fighters are deemed untouchable to have an opinion about unless you're a die hard fan.

GGG is a good fighter but his level of opposition isn't quite their yet to anoint him as anything was my only point and people are having hissy fits over it

"warriors"......more like people don't utilize skills like parrying, slipping and dipping. Not mastering your craft isn't something to applaud. those "Warriors " bang because they don't know certain nuances of the sport.


Gatti was a warrior but he wasn't a top fighter....lost to every top fighter he faced

Graziano was a warrior but not a top fighter,....fought mostly welterweights and lost to all his best opponents


Blood and guts is cool and I applaud having the balls to trade when you have to but taking a beating was never cool to me.


Getting your head bashed in makes you no more of a warrior than Willie Pep, or Whitaker, every fighter takes licks, some are smart enough to move their head smdh.......I'd rather be known as a winner, than a warrior.

[Mate_Parlov]

Every "boxing specialist" says Ward will kick the **** out of GGG so he must be one helluva puncher.

So my vote goes to Andre Ward. He is great boxer, but his resume is overpriced. Too many eurobums/drained fighters on his professional resume. And you can see that inactivity, age and injuries leaved huge mark on his performance. He is not the fighter he used to be. In my mind there is no doubt he will get an L next year if 2 conditions are met - if he fights at all, and if he fights anyone of a note (badou jack, degale, stevenson,kovalev,GGG)
