    If you’re talking all time, yes. But to be fair, most of the people that over rated his ATG status We’re not real fans. They did so for non boxing reasons.
    Good answer...agreed

      If people are making the same sort of silly comments about them versus all time greats, then yes.

      Neither of them have achieved anywhere near that.

      I personally haven't seen that sort of rabid fandom for those two fighters, but I haven't been around here much recently.

        He is a very good fighter.



        I just think 135 is not his weight class.



        He should go to 130.

          Lots of Fury fanbois here... They think he's invincible and is one of the Heavyweight ATGs...

            Definitely not overrated, I mean he beat Gary Russell in his second fight. People are ****** in by 30-0 undefeated records 😂. He could have done a Wilder, Tank Davis and fight bums after bums. He lost two fights, one to a younger, bigger, hungry lion and the other to a veteran who knew how to handle himself in the ring and he use every bit of his experience to earn that win. I see a lot of jealous posters out there 😂.

                He’s not overrated but he’s definitely overhyped. I was trying to telling everyone this all this whole time, but y’all acted like I was crazy. Loma’s a really good fighter, Teo was just a bad matchup for him stylistically.

                  Then who? Tiny Gary Russell Jr? People claim Loma is small yet Russell Jr far more smaller than Loma is in comparison its double standards. Linares who has been KTFO 4 times prior in better fashion?

                  I say what I see a lot in this era are overrated/overhyped. A lot of these divisions these days are absolute garbage full of domestic level fighters holding many world title belts and such

                  There are a lot of overrated/crap fighters these days hiding behind good matchmaking and refusing to fight the fights they should or simply blasting out total bums and getting a ridiculous amount of praise

                  They spoonfeed boxing fans any old rubbish and they lap it up everytime. Like look at the push for this 'white chocolate' kid and people are lapping it up. You can sell them any old ****, period.

                      I don't think so. No idea what he was doing in the first half last night. It's even weirder that he thinks he won.

                      If he actually stepped on the gas in the 2nd/3rd rounds like he usually does, it would have been a vastly different fight. When Loma was on in the mid/late rounds, he looked a class above Teo.
