Nah, nah. No confusion. Woods is overrated. Winning a title that was stripped from somebody else for bullshit reasons is not winning the title the right way. The fact that Tarver is a hated punk doesn't make him being stripped right. The way Woods won his title was the easiest route possible for him. He didn't beat the legit World champion. I wouldn't be surprised if you taught vacant meant legit.Quote:

Woods put himself in line for the title by fighting and winning his eliminators just like anyone else has to. You think if Tarver was an option he wouldn't have fought him?
Besides, this thread isn't about Clinton Woods legitimacy as a champion. Its about who is overrated and who is underrated. If Clinton Woods has to get a mention it should be on the side of underrated.
I think Enzo McCarnelli's is total underrate.

Many hate on the man...but he's an old school fighter, he's tactical/technical, & in the end...he's one of the premiere legends of our decade.

I'd tend to go the other way. Decent fighter, decent puncher. Nothing about him strikes me as world class though.Quote:

The other one is 5' 10 and weights 168. I don't think anybody is trying to turn Kameda to Lacy. Kameda struggled against Landaeta is there first fight. But he did enough to win it. And he proved it by winning the rematch a lot more easier.Quote:

Ok VD? I'm guessing you've just awoken from your drunken slumber and your looking for an argument. And Kameda got his ass handed to him in the first fight, no denying that shit.Quote:
