Who is the most overhyped/rated fighter currently...

So his P4P status and his ability, skill and all have nothing to do with him being overhyped? ok. How about this, he's a much bigger draw then Mayweather....yet we saw what happened when the two of them actually boxed eachother. If one fighter is so much better then another, yet can't sell neary as much tickets...then the other guy is overhyped. If you don't like the meaning of "over-hyped" don't use the word, i don't really care It means to promote or publisize to excess. Hatton is overhyped, end of story.

 

But it was coming off those fights and leading up to them that he was being so hyped. He's definitely not "over hyped" anymore, you barely hear anything about him now.

 

NOt so much now but KEssler used to be hyped like crazy for a guy who hasnt much.. Stylewise wise, he's a basic fighter with nothing special in his arsenal.. A good fighter but not special.... His hype nauseated me..

And Gamboa.. I dont buy his hype.

 

Peace yo :yep

 

Fair point, maybe im being over critical, but the hype machine is starting again now he is starting fresh up at super middleweight and fighting Froch.

 

Pacquiao !! although accomplished, he's a little overrated, his best wins were against guys who were past their best days.

 

Dawson is overated because people were saying he deserved to fight Calzaghe and that he'd beat him, when all he has done is struggle and in my eyes lose to Johnson, beat an old Tarver and beat Adamek who was weight drained at the time.

 

I'd say Margarito was before the hand wrap incident! I'm not sure about now..Valuev was hyped as well

 

I would think so many people would say Valero, I've seen a lot of hate on him with people saying he's overhyped.

 

Anontio "Hands of Plaster" Margarito.

 

he's not themost marketable fighter because of hype, it's because he's usually exciting to watch, doesn't take a backward step and always comes to fight.

 

he didn't lose every round, but was clearly beaten. but how many fighters retire undefeated? if you're going to lose your unbeaten record there's no shame in losing it to the p4p #1. the ref did have an impact on the fight, that's undeniable, but not the end result.

 

he's done more than dawson
