PBF needs to show the world that he's the real deal, but people brush off Judah too quickly, when he's bad, he's bad, but when he's focused he's no joke. when he faught Mayweather he was at the top of his game, I think that was a step in the right direction.
Am I the only one who thinks Floyd Mayweather is overrated?

he is definetly overrated to ur casual fan, but a lot of the hard core fans we got on this forumn rate him perfectly. I dont think its to early to call him great. He has beaten TONS of young talents in their primes, and has never looked bad in the ring.
I also think Mayweather has to fight more close and phisical fighters before we can call him a true great. Mayweather will never, EVER, be in a fight of the year at the rate he is going, until he fights margarito, Hatton, or Cotto.
I especially think the hatton fight at 140 would make People think differently of mayweather. If he could fight off one of the best inside fighters out there right now, even if he struggles or loses, then he could still be considered a great.Comment

overrated??? give me a couple fighters at Floyd's weight right now that have fought opposition like Floyd has and have a similar record to Floyd. We keep saying he is so overrated but who is better at his weight? And why are they better? I also feel that sometimes we let older boxers get blown out of proportion, I'm not saying that Floyd is an all-time great yet, but I think sometimes we let legends grow too much.

He has more skills then SRR, just like Leonard had more skills then Robinson. But Robinson is the greatest of all time.Originally posted by Chum12788He is overrated. Some people are saying hes better than prime Sugar Ray Robinson.
PBF has been underrated for many years, now people are talking about his greatness. Only idiots with no knowledge of the sport will call PBF overrated.Last edited by GunStar; 05-15-2006, 04:27 PM.Comment

Obviously people do get a bit too hyped over PBF. He has the potential to be one of the greatest but at present he is living off the past imo. He really needs to fight the Hattons, Cottos, Oscars and Margaritos pronto.Comment
