I think you're overrated as a poster here on ESB. :deal Why should the Euro fighter have to come to the USA to fight? It swings both ways genius. One could say that Taylor, Pavlik, Winky, Roy or Bernard were avoiding fighting Calzagne for the very same reasons. One thing is certain & that's the fact that Joe C is a huge draw in Europe.................
Jeff Lacy may have been overrated and hyped, but it doesn't change the fact that he was a very impressive fighter leading up to the Calzaghe fight. But Mikkel Kessler, despite the loss, still could beat anybody from 160-175 aside from Calzaghe. Kessler is a master at keeping a distance. His jab is one of the best in boxing. He does some very subtle things in there as well which prevent his opponents from getting inside. He does a nice job countering with short precise punches. The only things he needs are a good left hook and a better body attack.
the only fighter i think was overrated was lacy, well he was proven to be.other then that jc is real deal, its not even about who he fights really it how he fights and what he is able to do.jc is the truth.saying that i can tell you that if he was just mw or ww fighting in america he would not have been undeafeated this long. that i believe with all my hear, hes smw that have a decent fighters and maybe 2 great ones and then theres jc, so not overrated for me but he aint no beast fa real. what mk was one but now what, who before and who after ?? exactly.
