BOXING'S MOST OVERRATED & UNDERRATED STARS

Just reading my latest world boxing magazine and theirs a piece on boxing's most overrated & underrated stars



OVERRATED UNDERRATED

Shannon Briggs Ruslan Chagaev
O'Neil Bell Clinton Woods
Peter Manfredo Jr. Mikkel Kessler
Jermain Taylor Sakio Bika
John Duddy Roman Karmazin
Antonio Margarito Sergei Dzinziruk
Ricky Hatton Junior Witter
Diego Corrales Joel Cassamayor
Edwin Valero Steve Molitor
Irene Pacheco Vic Darchinyan

as i was reading the names i had to agree and it said about Ricky Hatton that he's fighting worn out Castillo next a superfight it ain't and he should be fighting Junior Witter or moving back up to welter and fight Mayweather,Cotto or Mosely something i've been saying for a while good to see a sports writer agreeing with me Mr Gavin Evans must be to do with us having the same first name

..... what 'Mister' ??

;D

They'll be some PREDICTABLE posts once the usual suspects get a whiff of this.

I think some of the guys that took part in The Contender are underrated.

I think I underrate Carl Froch too. Got a feeling he might pull of an upset when the time arrives ;)

I disagree with the Jermain Taylor pick. He is not even in the top 5 P4P and he has hung in their with Winky Wright and Bernard Hopkins which are the sports best and did not lose to either of them, little harsh, I due on the other hand agree 100% with Margarito.

We should pin a thread of those arguments so we don't keep taking up space repeating them.

Was about to post the exact same thing on the exact two fighters.
Thanks for saving me typing time.

Does Gavin ever do Reviews/ Previews?
Every thing is a rave and a rant with him ::**





Just for the record I HATE Gavin Evans ;)
Id be interested to read his supporting article though... This 'list' shows signs of him, once again, getting his wires crossed.

Vic Darchinyan

What is he on calling Vic underrated? Completely overrated the guy is the wierdest looking fighter I have ever seen he has his elbow out like he's going to swing a baseball bat, I can't even describe it. And he chases people around the ring people who are absolutely no match for him and just welt under pressure and relentlessness alone. Put him in the ring with a top guy and he gets destroyed.

And calling Kessler underated when he is one of the most talked about boxers as of now...?
Well, i guess he's a god amongs men in Gavins Evans eyes ::**

Im sorry... I really do hate that guy! :-\

Yeah... Darchinyan looks like something from Lord Of The Rings when he stalks his opponent.  Very unhuman.

If they dimmed the lights his opponent would prob scream and run back to the dressing room.

I think i like the look of them lists with a few exceptions

Jermain Taylor looked a bit lackluster in his last fight .As for Hatton fighting Witter who cares but Witter and both his fans i was in the pub for his last defnce didnt even glance at the screen and im HARDCORE BABY .

Witter sucks a*** so consistently i wish he would go and live in a muddy ditch and keep his stupid lord of the prance queen of the phony war mouth shut .

Witter is a no good ........its even more boring writing about him than watching him .

Under

Amin Asikainen - Been following this kid for a minute now, still can't belive he beat Sylvester whos another guy to look out for.

Nicky Cook - Has beat some decent names and is rated on avg. top 4 of the Feather. yet no one reallt seems to bother with him.

Alex Arthur - Has beat some prominent opponents and is rated on avg. top 9 of the Super Feathers. I read his name here and there but not as much as I would think....


Over

Paul Williams - I remember the day he beat Matthyse people were on here like he was the second coming of Christ... The kids talented and all but people right away started matching him up with the best around.

Zab Judah - Need I say more

Ivan Calderon - Whens he gonna fight someone that will actually mean anything for his career?

Humberto Soto - underated .
