    I must admit I had my doubts regarding Spence prior to the Brook fight but he made me a bigger fan after that.

    Spence v Crawford is the best fight to be made along with Lomachenko v Garcia in boxing.....Just imagine a double headlining card with such fights.....one can only dream.

    Floyd is the most overrated. Easily.

    Donaire was no closer to knocking Walters out, than Hopkins was to knocking Kovalev out.

    Toss up between him and GGG. You don't get beat up by a guy like Salido, or go life and death with Linares if you're everything the fanboys claim you to be.

    But GGG is more overrated. Gift against Jacobs. Struggled badly against the smaller man in Canelo and just eeked out a win (on my card but a draw is a fair result). He was meant to KO both in 3 rounds.

    Who was Spence, Crawford, Joshua, Canelo, Golovkin fighting in their second pro fight?.....in fact who was Mayweather, Pacquaio fighting on THEIR second pro fight?

    I forgot to add I think they are great fighters. Both just have a hardcore fanbase that make outrageous claims about them. Salido was def an unnecessarily tough second outing.

    Life and death with Linares is a little harsh. He was smaller by a lot and slower against a very skilled guy and still got the KO win. Very impressive I think.

    I mean even u have him at least top 3 ellerbe right now so why is an opinion that he's #1 so out of order? It's not a stretch is it? I mean look at your posts on him:

    I don't see even many avid fans diverging from those 3 posts really! That you've gone into YT specifically looking for Loma content & maybe zoned in on a few hyperbolic posts & are now trying to pass them off as Loma fan-base policy is your problem not mine! I suspect if i did the same with other highly regarded fighters right now i could find equally overboard posts, does that mean they're the most overrated of all time too?? & how do you know that if YT etc was around 50 years ago some people wouldn't be saying the exact same stuff about there era's fighters? You don't know they wouldn't be..
