    Yeh he is 10-15 on a lot of lists but he is underrated in the sense that most people don't even know about him, or have seen him fight

    Librado Andrade
    James Kirkland
    Jhonny Gonzalez
    Silence Mabuza
    Fernando Montiel

    I enjoy watching all of these guys fight, they always give a good effort and can beat anyone on any given night in their respective weight classes. Well all of them except Kirkland solely because we haven't seen him in against high caliber opposition yet. But I will say that more than likely his power will always give him a decent chance of winning against anyone.

    i don't think those fighters you mentioned are underrated. Kirkland is still a prospect, tune on him saturday with his first big test against albert

    JC Gomez. when he's not snorting the Devil's Dandruff, he's a very skilled boxer. former cw champ who clowned Mccall. hopefully Gomez/Virchis comes off this century.

    good call on isaac hlatswayo
    Hes good but very undersized at welterweight

    i wouldnt put Clottey there, people are saying hes better that Quartey here, thats waaaaaaaaay overrated.

    I also think that Malignaggi is underrated. He is an excellent boxer with a top notch jab that gets no love simply because he is a guido :lol:

    Glen Johnson might be slightly underrated too. He is a gym rat and always comes ready to fight

    Clottey doesn't have the heart or tenacity or power of IKE!

    Definately Clottey. He does seem to get hurt during fights and fade, however when at full health could box and bang with the best of them. Wickedly fast straight right when he throws the damn thing.

    yep, i never said being underrated at the elite level. Clottey overall is a good fighter and clearly a contender at welterweight same as hlatwayo
