    Kendall Holt I feel is underrated...but it may just be because noone talks about him here.

    Randall Bailey USED to be overrated back when he was worth a damn as a fighter.

    I think a lot of people underrate Bruno.

    Trouble is - he did most of his best work in the gym, in front of his trainer and a couple of old blokes in the corner. He didn't like being on the big stage, and also had zero ring savvy!

    He was a good heavyweight - but that is all for me. Probably in the top 5 Brit heavies, alongside Lennox, Cooper, Bugner and AN Other.

    Yutaka Nida is the longest reigning alphabet champion in the sport, probably the second best 105 pounder of all time, but I NEVER seen a thread about him. That's the definition of underrated.

    Hasim Rahman also.

    Joachim Alcine fullstop

    30-0, wasn't even on top of his game and still beat Travis Simms handily, fighting Santos in July

    The only fighters that i really see giving him trouble at 154 are Santos, Dzinziruk, and Spinks, but i think he would beat them all



    Oh and Steve Molitor. This guy can beat anyone in the division including Vasquez, Marquez, De Leon, and Cabellero. Print it.
