    I agree, and im a big Crawford fan but I've seen some "Pac vs Crawford" talk and that's ridiculous at this point...if Gamboa can catch and hurt you then you don't belong in with Pac

    He's defiantly no Broner, who even the Lightweight version would've lost to Burns, Gamboa and Beltran. And Broner was far more hyped, so if we use that as a yard stick, he's possibly underrated.

    Anybody who beats Gamboa the way he did isn't "overrated". He's the real deal, and he showed it this weekend against Beltran, who is a pretty good fighter himself.

    If you want to talk overrated, that's David Lemieux, and he's proven that clearly.

    Intresting thoughts regarding TC, he seems to have all the tools and the extra intangibles you look for in a physically gifted fighter, he's hungry, rugged, has a good beard and loves a fight. Maybe he isnt worth the hype you say he recieves (I havent seent the kid as advertised as you say) but one things for sure I can't see how a boxing purist and fan can not be excited about what he brings to the table.

    But it was ok for Broner to jump 2 weight classes and fight a champion, and then fight Maidana?
