Kirkland Laing might just be the most overrated British fighter ever.

Austin overrated when he was active but yeah, a bit forgotten nowadays.

In 1962.

you know...i'm going add franscesco damiani here too...

some say he was robbed of his gold medal at the 84 olympics.
a defeat he avenge in the pro ranks beating the very good tyrell biggs

he was giving prime ray mercer a lesson before getting ko'd

i know he's not one of the greats...but i do think he is kinda forgotten about and underrated......and if a prime damiani was around today you can bet money he'd give either of the klits a damn good workout.
