    Concussive power would result in more early KO's.

    GOAT jab is debatable, ATG jab absolutely.

    Versatility? When I look at his opposition, I see similar styles littering his resume. I don't think Wlad has that great of head or body movement, both in terms of offensive positioning and defensive evasiveness.

    ATG P4P resume? Maybe an ATG heavyweight resume, I could respect. "ATG P4P" though is nonsense. I could easily name 50 fighters with a FAR better resume than Wlad's.

    Wladimir Klitschko deserves to be nowhere close to this list. He's a top 25 HW, and enough people treat him closer to that than ATG HW, so I don't think he is overall overrated.

    Fighting 15 times a year isn't comparable to fighting 2 or 3 times a year.

    Pep is a top ten ATG, few question that. Not sure how that could possibly be overrated, but surrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre....

    Quite clearly Brian Shute. I mean come on who the **** did the guy beat to win three state titles in a row? Despite what was said at the time 168 was a ****ing weak ass division. You get a kid coming down, weight-drained to **** and coming off a loss and he not only slams Shute for 5 points but he also pins the ****er. A know bleeder, coming off a loss and weight drained having only ever made it as far the state quarter finals with a little over a years experience. :lol::rofl:patsch

    What a ****ing joke Brian Shute is.

    Stick to walking up bleachers with a log over your back Shute, the log doesn't throw back.

    Contemporary example:

    Yuriorkis Gamboa
    21-0
    Top wins include: UD Salido, TKO4 Solis, TD9 Ponce de Leon, UD JV Barros

    ...And this guy is in half of peoples' top 10 P4P.

    Joe cal's career was a complete waste imo and i don't think he is that good and very beatable. He knows it himself thats why he avoided johnson. But anyways he retired and no one cared and will be forgotten, unless someone starts talking about title defenses.
