Currently Most Overrated Fighter?

Wlad should always top these polls.

I also think Dawson has got some new fans recently who have jumped ship from Pavlik, im sure there wasnt this many Chad fans a few weeks ago...:bart

Williams is overrated aswel, has been compared to heanrs for some reason, i cant see the similarities. He has been fighting and beating welterweights but in reality i think its criminal for him to box at 147, fight someone your own size ye cheating git! In reality he is only harming his own longjevity.

As for David Haye being overrated, maybe by some but I havnt seen a real Haye fan who isnt completely blatant about his weaknesses, we know his got them, we know what they are and we dont lie about them, fact is even with his weaknesses he is still good enough to beat Wladimir Klitschko.

 

Manny Pacquiao..and it's not even close.

 

Kessler

 

from the list, its haye.

not from the list, gamboa

 

I can't believe people have voted for Calzaghe and Klitschko, fighters who have RULED and cleared their divisions. Those two are the most dominant champions right now.
Oh, and the line "their division sucks" is NOT an argument, this is the era they're fighting, those are their opponents and they ****ing dominate them. Overrated? No way.

Also... people are picking Chad Dawson? Why? Watching him fight makes you think he doesn't have skills and he isn't a good young champion who can get even better and accomplish more? My understanding is "overrated" means a fighter gets more credit than he deserves based on his skills and accomplishments.

Based on that last sentence, I am between Haye (HE is the one treated as the second coming of Christ at HW having fought only 3 times above 200lbs) and Williams (big size and reach advantages @147, plus serious defensive flaws, but a close win over Margo and another one vs Nobody Kolle make people think he is THE man).

 

yuriorkis gamboa -- people thought he was the second coming of rjj, now he's exposed as an explosive fighter with high level offensive abilities but has a ***** on his chin

mikkel kessler -- some fans overrate the guy

 

Koki Kameda.

 

:rofl koki kameda overrates koki kameda

 

Neither of them are really overrated I don't think. You listed some of the best fighters in the game. Plenty of fighters are overrated, but you picked the ones that are not.

Its like saying who is the poorest of Warren Buffett and Bill Gates?

If I have to choose I would say Malignaggi.

 

Gagagamboa!!!!

 

Kessler overrated???? WHERE??the guy has ONE loss,and that is to joe calzaghe...he´s been WBC/WBA champ,and is now again WBA champ.
AND still a lot of people ( us mainly),think he is worthless.
SAN RAFAEL,thread starter(voted for kessler).
IMO it´s to easy to say he´s this or that...

 

David Haye.

It was Kelly Pavlik until he was executed, by Hopkins


Haye hasnt proven **** at Heavyweight and people are already saying he will destroy everyone.

Even Steve Bunce agreed with Haye when Haye said he could fight Wlad and Vitali on the same night

 

No one on the list is particularly overrated.

Although i generally defend Dawson and am a fan with high hopes for his future, after whooping Tarver a lot of people have climbed aboard the bandwagon (after him being rarely talked about and underrated around here) and suddenly Dawson beats other top fighters like Calzaghe etc in a onesided fashion. I suppose its more the knee jerk change of views that is annoying.

 

Over in UK - Carl Froch easily. Over in the US - Chris Arreola.
