he's overrated because people aren't thinking critically about his level of competition in relation to how's he's performed against that level of competition.

he may be the best at his chosen weight right now...but that doesn't mean he isn't overrated.

Agreed completely. There is no way in hell he would beat Trinidad or Vargas in the form that those two fought each other, even if he weren't knocked senseless I think Vargas would have won over 12. I don't know whether anyone actually rates his boxing skills or not(they shouldn't), but he is obviously very athletic and that is enough to beat most anyone around 160 these days.
