    Arturo Gatti was worse than a lot of these guys being named.

    Big time. He was hyped as a god here in St. Louis, but got exposed as an overhyped average fighter.

    The last HBO hypejob is HBO itself.

    I almost miss it now. The ESPN,DAZN,PBC hypejob fans are out now. Its no longer about fighters or promotions but about networks. Are people genuinely stoopid sheeple yo be this tribal about something that does not pay them?
    Im a football fan but I win or lose money depending on who covers my parlay. These guys do it for free in boxing.

    Sure this guy got mentioned buy now but Seth Mitchell atually fits the definition of a hype job. To meet criteria who have to win a bit, looking good then crash and burn against sub contenderish sort of opposition.

    Got to love how one notortius scumbag bigot mentions 3 E.E. fighters, two of whom will end up being HOFers and the losses in question were all bad decisions or Ref'ing screw jobs of the highest order.

    RIP HBO Boxing.

    Yes, they had some hype jobs, but they also had some real deals. Now we won't see or hear either

    Alright first of all, don't get it twisted - Calvin Brock was a very good heavyweight and would be a top contender if not belt holder today.
