    I wouldn't go that far but I kinda agree, all the time he's made out to be unbeatable while he clearly isn't.

    The funniest thing happens regarding his opponents (the same thing applied to Cotto some time ago but to a lesser extent): even if the opponent is not world class and is in a close fight against him he is instantly considered a god afterwards. Just look at what happened after the first Quintana fight and now after the Martinez fight.

    i always never thought much of him, but in his last fight he got an opponent that was suppose to make him look like a world beater. he went life and death with him, and then gets caught for PED. he's gonna get raped as soon as he steps up in competition whenever that might be. or he could just fight the opponents he fights now, becaus i hear he makes good money for this.

    I pick Floyd & Pac to outbox Williams. Pac would have a very hard time because of reach issues but PW doesnt exactly "fight tall". I see Cotto outboxing PW inside and Mosley just trading punch for punch and winning that comp. So yea, top 4 WW's beats him. None of those 4 guys would have lost a decision to Quintana, Cotto showed he wasnt even in their league.

    Pacquiao is the most over-rated fighter in the sport and Mayweather will prove it whenever they fight.

    Froch is on this post a lot, but i don't think anyone rates him, he just has a good chin.

    The most over rated fighter fighting today is Bhop, I love the guy but the Bhop sells himself like a true Pro, and newspapers make it sound like he is the best LHW in the world and a P4p top 5 boxer, he aint that.

    1. No one rates Chavez Jr. so he can't really be overrated.
    2. Chavez was caught using a diuretic, not PEDs.
