I'm not sure about any of that, other than that he made himself irrelevant. I thought he beat Marquez in a tight fight. I also thought that he clearly beat Juarez both times. He can't be overrated because no one even considers him when discussing the featherweight landscape for fighters like Mares and Donaire.
He wouldn't get any grief for fighting in Indonesia if he fought good competition, but most of the time, he doesn't. So, the grief is warranted.
