    We are hearing a lot about Broner, Canelo, JCC Jr. but it seem like a lot of people think they are being overrated and held to unrealistic expectations. So who do you think is being overhyped and why? And who are some boxers that you think aren't getting enough attention, and being slept on?

    All of them. They become overhyped because their promotional teams do a good job

    honestly all of them. There being judged off there potential, but potential is just another word for aint did ****.

    All are overhyped until they prove themselves on the big stage.

    Manuel Charr.

    People say Vitali will wipe the floor with him, and take him out in 2 or 3 rounds.


    - but there's no way he's gonna last that long!

    Agreed, I think Rigondeaux has a bright future, and Bradley I feel is being unjustly put down because of a questionable decision, and even though I had him losing he put on a good competitive fight.

    Rios. I enjoy watching him, but he's just begging to be out boxed.

    David Haye 1 year ago. Holy **** that got bad.

    Seth Mitchells last fight ended that or should have. Now he should be more like a curious case of "what if". He is a good watch and has shown enough to suggest that he might become someone in the HW division.
