Fighters From Europe Are really overrated

[generalbulldog]

Great first post.

These Euro fans, especially the Brits, just don't get it. You have to let them have their fun though homie.

Rickey Hatton in the same league as Floyd and Pacman? Does a overrated club fighter belongs in the same ring as those 2? Hatton is a smaller and poor man's Jake La Motta. And Prince Naseem that people on this board are defending as an elite fighter from past few posts. The one that got badly exposed by MAB? And now there is all this hype with Mighty Mike. The best complete fighter of the 21st century? Now that's an overhype statement.


Europe produces some good talent but not elite all time talent, and no where near the level that North America, carribean, and Latin American countries produce.

Europe has never produce an elite fighter in the same class as, Muhammad ALi, Joe Louis, Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard, Jake Lamotta, Willie Pep, Henry Armstrong, Marvin Hagler, Archie Moore, Thomas Hearns, etc.

I can't believe I called you an idiot, when you are clearly a genius. Saddo, please give this guy the metaphorical key to the forum.

Normally, I wouldn't answer to this thread for obvious reasons but sometimes temptation is soooo strong... argghhhh

Europe formed some of the best boxers in history and this modern era is filled with talent. Yeah, some have been overrated, but isn't it the case everywhere? America and Canada had tons of boxers who have been overrated through the ages, promoters are behind most men, there is always and will always be some of these that will be able to hype a man to the maximum before the curtains fall and the truth discovered. If there is something, the danger of a hyped boxer might be greater in north america as promoters over here, in general, are a bit more powerful and where the network tvs are a lot richer than their rivals. Saying that european fighters are overrated or less talent than in the rest of the world is a total nonsense, it sounds like an aging Don Cherry stating that hockey players in Europe aren't that good, total and plain nonsense.
