    People are confusing gruelling weight cuts/fighting in a division they didn't belong in (Dawson @ SMW/Oscar @ WW) with being overtrained.

    Overtraining is when you peak way too early in your camp. Fighting in a weight class you never fight in is a different matter altogether.

    Yes he was a dead man walking that night! Worse than Oscar when he fought Manny.

    Ricky Hatton in the PAC fight sums this up perfectly. Not saying he would of won PAC is a league above him but he peaked early in camp and his family told him so and he didn't listen. He was getting knocked down by smaller guys in training also.
