    Mike Tyson is a good shout out. People say he wins against anyone H2H yet he lost to Buster Douglas in his prime. He was very beatable.

    That isn't to say Tyson wasn't a great Heavyweight; he was. But he gets hyped up as the best ever when he is probably something like Top 15 or so for Heavyweight.

    People overrate Tyson, canelo, and Oscar de la Hoya the most.
    I’m sure there is more overrated fighters but people overrate these 3 in my lifetime the most.

    Mayweather or Lomachenko. Their fans have very exaggerated ideas about their actual abilities.

    GGG, this guy was supposed to be this "monster " that could knock out heavy weights according to some fans, all of the sudden he steps up and that monster went away, hes fans try to make excuses like he's old ect.. but in reality it's because he was looking like God when fighting tomatoes cans

    He begs Canelo for Mexican style, and when Canelo obliges he fights like a timid baby lamb.

    That was classic!
