They've been selling us fighters with manufactured careers for years.. Canelo and Mayweather are two prime examples
How does one take this statement serious?!?! In history??? You realize for this to be true, he needs to be HEAVILY HYPED FIRST to be overhyped. He wasn't even hyped up on this board.
He wasn't that hyped Most in history? No way Ask most people in UK who he is and they wont have a clue
Yeah, curious case too, as his hype train survived many violent derailments and the faithful remained so for an implausibly long time. (thinking he'd have a realistic puncher's chance versus whoever was champ at the time, be it the Klitschko bros, Joshua, Wilder, etc, if just given the chance)
Not really glass jawed, more just defensively - and otherwise - unskilled (you can't get away with being that slow unless you have skills; case in point his conqueror Joyce, who just barely has enough skill to get by despite being down in the same speed gutter), but yes a total hype job.
