Fighters that you (controversially) think are overrated

Well in response to that try this.
He is saying becoming lineal champ is better than unifying the belts. How can this be though?
Because A) If you are beating all the other champs, one of them should be the lineal champ so in reality unifying means becoming lineal champ.or B) If the lineage has been broken, unifying effectively means you are the new lineal champ, as its hard to fight the lineal champ if there is none.
If you hold all the belts you are the champion no matter how the bodies define it as you have beaten everyone really.

But THAT's not true either!

What belt did Michael Spinks own when he was the reigning lineal heavyweight champion and fought Gerry Cooney and Mike Tyson? None. He had given up the IBF strap. Was he now not really the heavyweight champion? Of course not!
