    This could be a very long list
    I think he over achieved in his career. Considering he pretty much fought with only one eye

    Jeff Lacy is a top contender for this "accolade."

    Paul Willams.

    completely overated after beating Margarito.

    quite a few guys thought he could beat Mayweather lol then got exposed by a slick southpaw Carlos Quintana who showed that good lateral movement and great counter skills and accuracy is all you need to beat Willams. Williams did good to dominate him in the rematch though, now he is back to being overated again.

    Shame he got knocked out in the second fight after exposing Williams. Too much confidence maybe?

    Its not always the boxers fault either;half the time its the fat boys in suits spewing out bullshit to get the masses feeling like national pride will get a new free ride.$$$. Fight fans know its an each way bet all the way. With all the strings attached to fighters and the expectations of a nation or the world riding along ,no wonder some are caught up in it all only to lose heart when they awaken from a ring nap or meet a style with all their answers.

    But I cant understand it for you.
