    Can we give a special mention to Kimbo Slice, surely no KO has ever been more embarrassing?

    I think it is harsh to say that Haye is overhyped as a fighter considering he held unified titles at Cruiserweight.

    Dominick Guinn should definitely be on any list

    A lot of you guys need to understand HYPE.

    Hatton, Judah and Haye are not HYPE.

    Hatton is a blood and guts warrior who has done everything the hard way. There was and there is, no hype about him. You get what you see. The same with Judah. There is no hype. He is a very good fighter but often breaks down and looses fights in the second half. He is not hyped, if you are meaning perhaps the Zoo loss then maybe, although I thought he was an idiot to get up so quickly after that knock down. Haye... well what can I say...? OH YER, THIS: WBC/WBA/WBO/RING/LINEAL CRUISERWEIGHT Champ. Haye GETS IT DONE in often BRUTAL fashion. There is no hype.

    I will tell you what is the DEFINITION OF HYPE:


    AMIR KHAN.

    This guy is the DEFINITION OF HYPE. He is basically still an amatuer, he has the worst chin ever to grace the sport of boxing, the result of HIS ONLY MEANINGFUL FIGHT was a FRIGHTENING KO LOSS WITHIN ONE MINUTE that had ringside observers FEARING THEY HAD WITNESSED AN EXECUTION.

    The HYPE TRAIN should have ended there. Sadly however this is not the case. Thanks to Frank's millions, a SHOT TO **** former BLOWN UP LEGEND, a vicious AXE WOUND and GULLIBLE FAN BOYS this hype train is still going strong.

    KOTELNIK will detonate some C4 on that chin and END IT ONCE AND FOR ALL.

    Amir ****ing Khan, who can say any different? apparently hes still a "prospect". 10 years ago with a different promoter this kid would be 8-3 on the british lightweight scene alone. I would go as far to say Kevin Bennett and Bobby Vanzie would have KOd him....Easily.

    Kimbo Slice has a glass jaw, he got floored to a knee by Gannon and that guy Chico in his street fights.
