3 pbf--should prob look at 147 pd judah or back down to 135 to face diego again--which may be a totally differnet fight this time around--it would be funny to see pbf get ktfo by gatti then move down and get ktfo by diego---would embarass ricky hatton worse then winky did tito and prob knock hatton tfo

4 viv harris--big underrated------dangerous guy nobody seems to want--apparently he was to young and viable for ricky hatton--would kayo ricky if ricky didint duck him

5 cotto---big for division good fighter--but very beatable as corley let us know--would kayo hatton in 1 rd though--too big strong and athletic--ricky would never go near him

6 witter--another guy like harris nobody wants to fight--another guy ricky hatton ducked --would blister ricky and knock him out

7 corley---give this guy some credit---close split loss against judah, rocked pbf and shook him while going the distance, and roughed up cotto a bit before a very premature stoppage prevented us from finding out if he could have upset cotto--this guy is tough and i think corley would beat hatton via close decision--lack of power keeps ricky in game

8 sharmba mitchell---looked pedestrian against zoo but good give alot of guys a tussle--still 3 yrs away from being an opponent for ricky hatton--hed box his ears off still at this point

9 lovemore ndou--tough vet who will give anyone a tussle ---alot like corley---not washed up enough for ricky--probably win a close decision against ricky

10 oktay urkal-gave harris a tough fight and is solid--another guy who would probably beat ricky hatton of course hes 35 so hes almost ripe for a hatton encounter--id give ricky a 50-50 shot in this one--but rememebr thi guy is underrated and tough--lost close md to harris and went the distance with zoo--which is 10 rds longer then ricky is gonna last

I am amazed you said that o0 vivan v hatton was pretty much a certaintiy; harris had been yabbing on about it for ages and hatton wanted the fight. All harris had to do was get past the small task that was beating maussa and he would have a unification match with Hatton, but harris went and got him self stopped didn't he?

If he had won hatton would of fought him rather than maussa, but he lost so hatton just went on and batterd maussa... harris has done fuck all since, beat no body, won no titles - will do nothing for ricky posses little threat to hatton, how is that ducking him?

i heard that harris might have earned himself a title fight. i would like to see him fight witter for the WBC title. would be a good fight and a good name for the winner to have on their record which ever way the fight would go.

I just picked the HW's from you list.
The post was most overrated!

Everyone thinks all these guys are sh1t! if any thing they can't be as bad as people say they are.......well Ruiz could.. he's worse that people think, and EVERYONE says he sucks dogsh1t thru a straw!

The rest are about on par with general opinion IMO except maybe Rahman who MIGHT be better than peope think, on a good day.

As for OVERRATED? since people think the Klitschkos fart Oxygen and sweat Champagne they must be over rated.!!

Underrated?/overrated possible winner.... Valuev..could go either way.

Rocky Juarez
Brian Viloria

Intresting list !

... If it was my list I would pull a few of these cats ! lets see

lets pull Taylor and replace him with Arthur Abraham Taylors last performance was lame, but he has credit with some good defenses in the past .

I like what I am seeing from Paul Williams so I would get him off the list !

Kermit Cintron ( he does need to snap out of it ) his killer instinct is dying out. he once was a fire cracker now he is got lame duck syndrome ! Manny what the fu$% man ? no more lame fighting style teachings.. Tell your students to un learn what they have learned and get back to the golden days ! shit , your fighters are becoming snuff queens.. lets get back to the Hearns and Michael Moorer days !
what do you say Dan ? Lets give this kid one more chance and pull him off the list !


Rocky Juarez can come off the list (losing to Barrera aint no thing !) ..

I think Viloria is a good fighter. .he had a bad night and got out hustled , but he do have the goods,, I would take him off the list for now .

Other than that spot on ! enjoyed that !

NO, I am the worst poster on this forum. I have worked hard for this distinction, and you go and award it to an amateur insulter like Lawhoops !!

I know i have joked about Ruiz being great and will unifiy the HW, but i wouldn't say he is overrated though.. everyone seems to hate him 'coz of his borring style, he is a pretty skilled boxer IMO he lacks speed that lets him down a lot and he is borring, but he is one of the more skilled boxer in the heavys atm... don;'t think he ever recoverd from that bruta KO at the hands of tua, doesn't like to risk getting KTFO again...

I dont think there are any overated champs?

Maybe jsut a bad case of over discussed

Ah I mean over rated by the WBF/IBF/WBA/WBO etc. not public opinion

The funny thing is I really like a lot of the the fighters on that list, and they are all over rated for different reasons, be it WBC/IBF/WBA/WBO rankings, bad performances, unproven ratings, bad showings or hype. If I was to go into every single fighter on that list why I thought they were overated, It'd take about 2 hours, just food for thought I wouldn't mind seeing some other peoples lists

I will start it off with the so-called champs:

Krzysztof Wlodarczyk --IBF Cruiser









Assuming Glen Johnson is in top condition I agree Dawson would lose a one sided decision....Truth is Glen Johnson is a damn good fighter that could beat most guys out there as long as he comes in shape




--lost at home, so he wins. Too bad Cunningham didn't come stronger.
***EXPOSED by Vadim Tokarev

O'Neil Bell--'Ring' Cruiser Champ
OK. He had a nice KO against Mormeck, a smaller man. Since then, he turned down Cunningham, G. Jones, and every other top five cruiser. Now he's going the fight the little man again. Give me a break!
***EXPOSED by Vadim Tokarev

Clinton Woods--IBF Lt Hwt
--same scenario. Ridiculous ring call in the fight. He can't fight any top five LtHwt, mark my words.
***EXPOSED by Chad Dawson

Chad Dawson is still raw.

It's not Bells fault the Jones fight didn't happen. They didn't let Jones medically fight wasn't that the case?(I don't know but I think it was)

And Chad Dawson, in my book wouldn't beat Glen Johnson.
