Who are the most overhyped fighter that got exposed.

Okey dokey pearl.... you would say this to virtually anyone here BTW. it means nothing.

 

At least they bring eyes to the sport!


oh and that'd be Margarito BTW

 

nice one TT. Some here act as if one has to be a 4 time champ and top 3 p4P boxer to allow fans. Whatevs. Some of my faves were not considered elite or top tier.

 

Of recent vintage, Edgar "The Chosen One" Berlanga was extraordinarily overhyped.

 

Naseem Hamed.

 

Canelo for sure

AJ for sure

Next are Fury and Spence if they find balls to fight best in their division

 

- I will ALWAYS root for Judah no matter what. I want him to bareknuckle box ASAP

He was undisputed champ though..........

 

Yeah I was gonna say Naz. Big fan, sad to see his fall

 

Jeff Lacy?

Engels Pedroza

 

Exactly. Everyone is just going to mention fighters that they don't like.

 

How exactly was Naz over hyped?One career loss to an ATG,he had a great career

 

Team slick was on here drooling over Broner like a bunch of girls towards the hot guy at school.

 

There's a massive difference between a hype job and a fraud. A hype job is a good fighter that didn't live up to what their promoter and fanbase was selling them as. A fraud is a complete bum with a built up record that gets badly exposed when they fight a live opponent.

 

He was supposed to annihilate Barrera.

 

He was the first guy that popped into my head. I have no idea to this day why people picked him to beat Calzaghe.

Not me - there are virtually no fighters that I don't like.

Anyway anyone remember Francisco Bojado? He was really hyped up & with good reason, the guy could crack! He was very explosive and seemed a perfect 'tv' fighter, but he walked away quickly after he lost and ended up with not even 20, 25 fights total maybe? Anyone know the story on him?

Someone that also quickly came to mind is Tony Ayala Jr. He certainly seemed to have an excellent future & was looking the real deal before he blew it, the scumbag.
