    He is hyped but the most hyped guy in the division is Devon.

    the most overated is ****ing Tim Bradley, Hope Devon beats him. I watched his fight with Witter and promised never to watch either of them ever again.

    The real haters,whether they be PBF haters, Pac haters, Khan haters just show themselves up as having so little happening in their own lives by the effort and detail that goes into their silly long posts with new excuses why the fighter they hate is a " coward " or " glass jawed " or " untalented " yap yap yapping little puppiers

    A lot of Brits on here disliked the guy (including myself) earlier in his career because he was seen to be given a golden pass due to winning a silver medal at a young age. He was put up against your regular type early career building fighters but was being hailed as an ATG by the UK media for beating them. He also had an extremely disliked promoter at the time, known for "carefully guiding" fighters for most of their career.

    Then he started running his mouth about how he could beat Pacquiao and he was the best out there, despite seeing him dropped by opposition 20 levels below a guy like Pac.

    I have been saying since the Kot fight "hhe needs to fight Maidana to win me over", not because MM is a murderous puncher but because I believed he won a belt that should have been around Maidanas waist, not Kotelniks.

    He's done that now, so he has my support from here on out.




    Unless he goes back to beating up on old blown up legends like Barrera (or Morales)

    The answer is simple, its because he`s not American.
    I dont understand why the the phrase "hype job" is used so much either. It seems like if a fighter isnt as talented as Pacquiao or Floyd then he`s a hype job, anyone on this forum who has boxed as an amateur or pro must realise how much talent it takes just to win domestic titles let alone operate at world level. The world will never be filled with Sugar Ray Robinsons so just enjoy the talent thats on offer, and remmember all these so called "hype jobs" who get slated on this forum would knock most of us on this forum spark out !

    I tend to ignore internet warriors who stack shelves at the local supermarket for a living.

    For a guy with Valero in his avatar you're really in no position to talk about hype.

    Na bruh, if anything bradley is underrated because people are already writing him off, He is indeed a great talent, whose always had to fought to best to move up the ladder and has kept winning regardless of the situation, opponent and country he's fighting in.
    Bradley will be a future P4P champ and Khan Bradley will be a great fight !

    I don't think it's really about Khan. It's about obnoxious fanboys versus the group that loves to present an opposing view or "haters" if you prefer to view them as such. Both groups are faulty for being extremists.

    Khan is a good fighter. To say he's better or worse is a reach at this point. I didn't see anything overly impressive. Didn't see anything awful either. He started off with an A+ performance. By the end of the fight he dwindled to a B-. I'm glad Khan took on the challenge. I was more excited about this fight than Pac's last 2 fights.

    I'll muster up the balls to say it: a lot of people want to see a Pakistani Muslim lose. That's just life. I'm always willing to give credit where it's due. But I'd be lying to say I love Amir Khan. It has nothing to do with his religion or the color of his skin though. Some people just rub me the wrong way, that's all. Dude is doing great. More power to him.

    Who cares?

    The 'haters' are a minority, really.
