    This is a hard one.

    Dawson or Mayweather. Both are great fighters but Mayweather is overrated and doesn't step up to the top fighters who are in their prime.

    I like Dawson but he isn't the greatest in his division and there is some hype around him. Dawson is a good guy though and a good representative of the sport so I have to say Mayweather is the most overrated.

    Lacy i guess overall didnt beat anyone great.
    Bute could go that way after one of the super 6 hammers him

    How you can state that and then not vote for the catchweight king Emmanuel is beyond me. He only competes against starved leftovers and the ghosts of former fighters.

    Pacquiao is the Most Overrated in boxing, and the most overrated in histroy.

    Pac's last 3 fights were FIXED.

    3 FIXED FIGHTS in a row.....wow!!

    Pac uses EPO Steroids, and other illegal PED's.
    Pac ducks many challenges.
    and now, Pac has to have FIXED FIGHTS along the way.
