    I despise Khan, but he has a decent resume actually. Maidana, Judah, Kotelnik, Barerra, Mallignaggi

    :rofl his resume is terrible. Barrera and Judah were completely PAST IT shadows of themselves so they don't count, I find it hilarious that you even mentioned those wins. Kotelnik and Malignaggi are C level feather fisted very average dudes. Maidana is a basic average very slow plodder who lost every single round to devon alexander :lol: those last 3 I mentioned have about 5 wortld title wins between them :lol:, none of them 3 are world class.

    Floyd. Hyped as the GOAT, yet he doesnt have a single prime ATG win and his overall resume is just slightly above average

    Golovkin is not hype at all.

    Void has been hyped after beating up a woman, but Void could not knock her out........................why does Void beat up women?
