Fighters From Europe Are really overrated

[AdamGB]

I'm a fight fan and have pretty good knowledge on the sport and probably might learn more at this forum, but I look at things objectively or try to.

And now there is all this hoopla and hype about Mighty Mike Arnaoutis. Some folks on here talking about that he's going to knock out Mayweather or Pacman if they meet up. Does he even belong in the same sentence with those 2? Yeah Mighty Mike will knock those 2 out maybe 8 years from now when Floyd and Manny are shot fighters and are still fighting because they need to pay their taxes.

Maybe the last all time geat European fighter was Bob Fitzsimmons when the Marquess of Queensbury Rules started to be implemented in boxing. I think you have to go back that far for a great European fighter.

You do realise that the Mighty Mike Arnaoutis thread on here was a massive, blatant joke to wind some pacfans up? You weren't stupid enough to think that it was serious were you?

Also plenty of British boxing fans picked PBF to school and stop Hatton and for Pacman to do the same as long as he could handle the size difference. I would like to see the legions of people you seem to be talking about.

Every country will get a little excited over their fighters... Lacy was the next big thing at Super Middle weight... look at him now. Chad Dawson is going to be the next big thing at thing at Light Heavy, once he can dominantly beat an old ex-crack head and Sam Peter was the second coming of George Foreman.

Shit job trolling.

Nooooooo!!! This cannot be so!!

Actually, I don't see too many European fighters being overhyped so I don't know what this thread is all about.

Fighters like Hamed, Hatton, Calzaghe and so on were all good fighters. Calzaghe on his day could be a lot more than good. But I don't see anything overhyped about those fighters.

Could somebody please tell us when somebody has ever said that Henry Cooper was one of the top fighters from his era etc... etc...

Having fans/admiration is vastly different to how your ability is rated.

It seems like this rant/baiting is purely based of assumptions you've created to help support whatever the point you're trying to make is.

edit: ok... saying that Oscar was shot/weight drained is idiotic? Fucking hell. This kid is all over the place isn't he. It shouldn't matter if you're a new poster or not... that shouldn't stop you from seeing the blatant sarcasm about 'Mighty' Mike.
