    I think Chad just had an off day against Psacal and would beat him in the rematch. The only person who overrates Floyd, is Floyd. Manny is more overrated with this grabage top 10 atg talks

    I would never put Floyd as number one but recently I've been starting to realise how thin Floyd's resume is. Espeacially how good Pacquiao's is, and with all of Mayweather recent fearful antics I think he may think so as well.

    As for most overrated, probably Taylor.

    You suck bigtime for leaving an elite boxing club. :patsch

    Sure, let yourselves like Scar join the Pacquiao bandwagon when we all know Floyd's resume is richer in quality of opposition he faced.

    Unlike Michigan Warrior and Duck Dodgers, McMannama and myself who are real fans of boxing and Floyd, and really see him for his worth, people like you just come and go with the tide. Pathetic. :lol:

    Damn I forgot Lacy and Valero, the only reason I wouldn't include PW is because he had a lot of hype from just a few loud people. The general consensus was that he was easy to hit and didn't use his height, and of course that is true.

    Number one has only lost once to number three who is undefeated.

    How are they overrated?

    I'm on no bandwagon, I don't hype any perticular fighters, I'm just a boxing fan and have been sice RJJ beat up Vinny Paz. If you notice I don't ever try to smear anyone.

    It just seems out of place that Floyd is consensus #2 p4p, when he couldn't KO a blown up lightweight and was in trouble against a very faded Mosley. I appreciate the guys skill, in fact I just watched the Baldomir fight. But considering he's a huge star he doesn't do that much to back it up.

    Vic Darchinyan lost twice. And the fact that Nonito Donaire is considered widely 'Number 3 P4P' makes him highly overrated in my mind. And Donaire is not undefeated.

    good christ...you do realize how many fighters would be overrated if they had the resume of fighters jermain taylor does? one of the most overrated fighters of the past decade doesnt beat hopkins twice. and even if you think hopkins won...no one gives him that tough of a fight twice. furthermore, one of the most overrated fighters of the past decade doesnt fight winky to a draw when winky was only one year removed from making tito look like an amatuer.

    Lol...get the **** out of here. I assume boxer number three is meant to be JERMAIN Taylor, who how the **** do you figure is "overrated" he fought the absolute best fighters out there, he beat Hopkins twice, got a gut it out draw with a great Winky Wright (who no one else would fight), beat Lacy, Ouma, Joppy, Marquez, and Spinks. I mean I'm not saying he's P4P GOAT, but for his level of development he got a lot out of his talent and ability. Furthermore, after this lengthy delay, assuming he can and is willing to do the work to get to 160, he is good enough to again be the dude in that division (mainly because the division is thin right now). Floyd as number one is a joke, I mean he was P4P #1 for years, there is just no basis for this period. Dawson has lost one ****ing fight on a "technical decision" how the **** is he overrated?
