The Most Overrated Hypejob of All Time

[pasawayako]

Floyd hype his fight before the fight telling all the fans that the fight will be a war and exciting but during the fight all he's doing is to run and hug inside the ring. that's the true hype job boxer.

Canelo wasn't prime and really? the best name on his resume is Castillo and Hatton?

Eh, pretty close.

Nope, didn't say that.

You said he doesn't have any prime HOF'ers on his resume but chances are that won't be the case. At the very least one of the listed will get in but realistically probably more than one will.

I mean, if Barrera is considered prime vs Pacquaio then it's at least arguable that Chicanito was prime when Floyd beat him. And he's already a HOF'er.

Right but why was it his last fight?

32 year old version, and I'd never seen him better. When do you think he was better?

The Oscar fight was at 135 a weight he didn't belong firstly.

Secondly he came back and showed better boxing skill than I'd seen him. Looked really good against Famoso.

Peak physically? No maybe not but skillwise and experience wise I'd say yes IMO.

Similarly that Barrera was in 2003.

[Combat Talk Radio]

You may be the only person on the planet who thinks any of those fights were downright robberies. Almost every person has them all within 1 or 2 points no matter who they think won.

First fight - bad judging, bad ref.
Second fight - bad judging.
Third fight was a ROBBERY no matter what you say. And I'm not alone in that theory.
