Lloyd Honeyghan is way too underrated!

Honestly this guy is so underrated its not even funny. I always hear names like de la hoya, trinidad, whitaker and donald curry be mentioned when discussing top 20 atg welterweights, yet he never gets mentioned. At welterweight he beat top 3 p4per donald curry, gianfranco rosi, jorge vaca, johnny bumphus, gene hatcher, maurice blocker. He also has wins over legitmate contenders like brazier, stafford, shufford, twinning, and kil chung.

In my honest opinion, its not even a comparison. At welterweight his wins resume crushes that of de la hoya, whitaker and tito. They all picked on smaller fighter or old guys, while honeyghan beat 6 world champs at this wieght class. His only losses are to other world champs, nothing to be ashamed of at all.

 

im sorry but i mentioned 3 lineal weltwerweight champs and a future 154 champ. Please tell me how many welterweight champs de la hoya beat during his tenure as a welterweight. Old ass chavez, blown up gatti, old ass camacho, corley, rivera, carpentier, kamau?

 

yeah but just compare thier welterweight resumes really. Pea and dlh didnt beat as many chasmps at that weight. I'm sure honeyghan could have been champ longer if he fought the same bums that tito did from 95-98.

Blocker and vaca may not be ATGs, but they were better than most of the welterweights that those other 3 beat. Same thing with gianfranco rosi.

Hey curry may not have been at his best, but hey im sure honeyghan would have beaten blown up chavez and all the bums tito kept fighting.

 

O please, donald curry would have a great shot at beating oscar, he would probably be the favourite. You keep downgrading his wins, please at least he didnt pick on old washed up hasbeens.

 

yeah im sure the 36 year old chavez and the 80 year old camacho would have beat him too right? Oscar's welterweight resume is far more overrated. Wilfredo rivera arguably beat cokhead whitaker, hurtado was schooling him priro to the stoppage, yet de la hoya couldnt do **** but hit thin air and arguably lost that fight. De la hoya also arguably lost to a quartey that hadnt fought in a year and a half.

 

He was fully prepared in the rematch against rivera, only won by like 1 or 2 points and yeah ive seen that fight on espn. Quit making lame ass excuses, he couldnt dominate an old whitaker like he was supposed too.

 

whats ur point really, it pisses me off when you do this.

Please tell me what the **** did chavez ever do at this weight? Please inform me. He did nothing at welterweight. Curry was sturggling to make weight long before the lloyd, fight yet he kept winning. If it was such a washed up curry, why was the enitre boxing world shocked. There is always an excuse when a big upset happens.

Mcgirt, chavez, green hurtado is a better resume than rosi, vaca, blocker, bumphus, hatcher, and donald curry. This is what you are honestly telling me.

Hurtado wasnt even ranked by ring when whitaker fought him, niether was jake rodriguez.

 

no, i go by official resume, not how i would judge fights. Hell i can make a case de la hoya is 40-3, which would make him top 15 p4p.
