    Completely different subject to most overrated, this is about who was under rated the least.

    Three obvious ones to kick off with;
    Gavin Rees
    Kevin Mitchell (well prepared)
    Frank Bruno pre Tyson II

    Who have you got?

    Least underrated and most overrated are the same thing.

    You mean most overrated, basically? Ryan Rhodes.

    Read the thread again. This is least underrated not most overrated. Completely different topics, Ryan Rhodes would have been a great answer to most overrated though.

    I will have a crack

    Tony Dosh PPV
    Kell Brook
    Tony Bellew
    Tony Fowler
    Luke Campbell
    Josh Taylor
    Any Other Fighter promoted by Eh Day a decent shout

    Some decent shouts in there Juergen. Didn’t think of Tony Fowler he could be in the discussion for the least underrated Brit, he is one of the least underrated Brits I can think of:

    Here’s a controversial one: David D Haye around the time of the Arnold the maggot fight could well have been one of the least underrated brits ever, thoughts?

    It’s a pretty self explanatory question, the clue is in the thread title: which British boxers, past or present, are the least underrated?

    It doesn't make sense. By that you mean most overrated, the opposite to most underrated, then?

    Pretty simple, in terms of being overrated who is the most least-wise;
    Who is the most least underrated?

    Lennox by anyone who has a clue can never be underrated.

    People who have at least a single brain cell can understand what he achieved and the resume he put together
