    Excellent post.

    Fringe world class IMO. The belts don't lie, but losses to the likes of Piccirrilo and Verno Phillips cast doubts.

    Would you agree that: roberto duran...marcos maidana...antonio tarver... Trainer floyd mayweather senior are overrated?

    And that: john ruiz...matthew hatton...antonio margarito...lucus mattsye...and trainer buddy mcgirt are underrated?

    Trinidad is underrated here, got outboxed by masters like Winky and Hopkins in their primes.

    Yeah he was underrated and 'avoided' in the 80's true. But i can't agree he is overrated now bro. Infact i wonder if some younger posters even know who The Bodysnatcher is.

    All things considered he deserves at worst to be within and not just considered for the top 10 all time.
    Given his in ring abilities/skills/talent, his acomplishments and his resume.

    Kalmbay is a great shout, the man was excellent and i loved watching him. Although that Nunn KO was a corker, he couldn't have been caught anymore clean. A KO from another elite boxer shouldn't detract from how good you are, like it does so often in this day and age.
