The most overhyped boxer...who would that be ?!?

[Pugilistic]

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?

It could of been, personally i feel that Williams actually came into this fight focused and it showed.

chavez jr. as far as current boxers imo. That gamboa kid as well

Agree and I guess it applies to every Jr. out there. They have the father's name so imagine the pressure they have to carry .

I wouldn't write off Chavez jr he seems to be improving every fight. He knocked out an undefeated albeit unknown fighter in Loriga last time out and he seems to have the heart for it IMO.

Sure, considering he has no amateur history. Imagine an amateur with around 30 fights getting into the ring with the pros and having people want to see them fight #1 ranked opponents.

Ditto....HBO gets a little carried away .Remember how Jeff Lacy was "on his way to being the next Evander Holyfield".......

[El Kabong]

Domonick Guinn deserves a shout out in this thread...HE was "the next Holyfield"

Nicolay Valuev......where's Royal

[TheChosenOne]

David Reid
Michael Grant
Antonio Tarver
Aurtio Gatti will alyays be a great b-class fighter IMO

[Mr140]

Well if were putting Gatti up there might as well put Hatton.

Nicolay Valuev......where's Royal

I don't think there's much hype going on about him, nor is there Valuevmania. He may be a giant, but he's too small for his contender shoes.

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.
