We have got to stop hyping fighters so fast

[Larry the boss]

But that doesn't matter if your opposition isn't quality. You've said this yourself before.

Outside of Lucas, he hasn't beaten a prime fighter decisively and without a gift decision. Fact.

It is ok man i know the Lucas fight still hurts...But Danny has more then proven himself

[Mr. Objectivity]

Is this a way to DOWNPLAY a GGG win once he destroys charlo? ..

I wasn't a Lucas fan at the time dude, never have been, you have a bad memory.



Danny has done nothing to prove himself yet, not anything warranting the hype he gets on here anyway. He will be exposed soon enough.

[Beercules]

I am feeling for him.

So you're saying that if we look through your post history we won't find anything of you saying Matthysse wasn't overrated or referring to him as WARtthysse?

I refer to him as WARtthysse sure, that doesn't mean I was a big fan of his.

And he wasn't overrated. I would defend even Broner who I hate under the right circumstances. People have the problem around here where they overrate a guy for being undefeated and they write a guy off after one loss. Lucas was righfully hyped pre-Garcia loss and wrongfully called a bum afterwards. It's not that binary.

If you do bother going through my post history you would most likely find even more posts where I have to put Lucas fans in their place for daring to call Lucas better than Maidana back when both were active.

lol ok fair enough then, carry on

Even though we'll have to disagree about Matthysse's hype. You would have thought he was the second coming of Tyson the way he was being talked about.

I made that mistake with Broner, Charlo beat J-Rock woh has literally beaten no one..so why was J-Rock hyped so much? i dont get it, and Charlo didnt look like some great elite fighter in the fight either. I think we as boxing fans get a little to damn excited after fights. Sure at 26 this is a fight he had to win and a i applaud him for it and will say he is on the right path. But is he fights Canelo next i see it being a brutal night for him. There are levels in this sport and Canelo is an Elite well crafted fighter and Charlo seems to be a couple levels below. I wish the young man much success but lets stop hyping these damn kids up so fast and let them grow as fighters

Who exactly has Canelo beat to make him levels above Charlo? Floyd Mayweather? Oh wait, he got schooled, hurt, and walked down by that feather fisted 36 year old.

Austin Trout? Oh yeah Charlo beat him too.

Erislandi Lara? Oh wait, that was a clear as day robbery.

Amir Khan? Oh wait! Didn't that bum get KO'd by jnr welterweights and and some prescott bum?

Hmmm....I wonder what it is exactly that puts Canelita levels above Charlo?

canelo has wins over

cotto
lara
trout
kirkland
angulo

all far more proven fighters then anyone charlo has faced..and year trout was prime when canelo beat him

[Illmatic94]

im still hyped over jrock.. instead of saying don't hype fighters too soon, we should say don't **** on fighters after only one defeat..one L in boxing is like a death sentence then we wonder why guys at the top cherry pick.
