    Ward is running neck and neck with Con. But while Ward is certainly NO Jones, he's alot better then Con.... so Amir tops the list.

    i don't understand why anti-fighting, such as is employed by ward and at lesser times, bhop, seems to be embraced as being crafty and **** like that. head butting and grabbing is not crafty.

    haye is the most overrated of those listed

    ward has fought some of the best in 168 lb division as of late, and being in the super 6 torment he has put his Olympic gold reputation on the line and face more tests. haye on the other hand wont even back up all his smack talk by facing the klitchkos - the best in the division.

    From that group, the answer is Bute and it's not even close.

    Am I the only one who thinks it's only a matter of time until Gamboa gets either KTFO, or schooled by a relative nobody?

    how can amir khan be overrated he whooped paulie's ass and paulie was a top 5 guy at 140, Ward had a solid win in beating kessler not that overrated. Nonito knocked out vic flat in round 5, an undefeated fighter at that time. Williams is def not overrated he's had tough fights, he got a gift against cintron though. Bute might be a bit ovverated but he's got the talent. Saying Bhop is overrated is just plain stupid, Dirrell is not overrated, got robbed against Froch and schooled abraham, just watch the Ward match will impress you. haye is good everyone knows he's not ready for the K bros yet. Lopez is exciting and he knocks mother ****ers out how can u be overrated with that high of a knockout ratio against decent opponents. Gamboa is def overrated, he could be good if he tightens up his game a bit.
