    People expected a lot more from Chad Dawson.

    Wtf?!?!

    He reached most everybody's top 5 P4P, you clown, hahaha.

    He should be mentioned among the most underrated fighters of the past decades and that is acknowledging that everybody rates him at the very least at the fringe-HOF-level.

    Broner and Kahn. Amazingly they keep losing key fights, yet continue to get big paydays. Broner loses every big fight by decision, were Kahn gets KOed.

    This, Alexander was hyped after the Urango fight
    Fight with Bradley was like a 50/50

    Who in the **** ever compared Clev to Bob Foster? I've been here literally forever and have never heard even the worst adamant British fan say such a thing. Why are you just making **** up?

    Add Victor Ortiz and Jason "The American Boy" Litzau to that list.

    You’ll never find a quote from me about Alexander. I too thought he got a lot of hype for the Urango fight. However, the powers that be never hyped him or made things easy. He earned his accolades the hard way.
    If you wanna talk about an over hyped fighter, I give you Cletis Seldin, Seth Mitchell, Felix Verdejo. I hope you can recognize the objectivity in naming these 3.
