    Good list. You should take Johnson off though. He's really not underrated anymore. Robert Guererro should take his place.

    Your list is terrible. You should probably put Williams and Arreola in the underrated category and put Cotto and Cintron in the overrated category. Well, that's unfair to Cotto. However, Cintron definately belongs in the overrated category.

    Yeah...I don't really see how Cintron is underrated. Without his big right hand he's a sub-par fighter IMO....can't fight for **** on the inside....and how is Cotto underrated? Don't get that one either.:patsch

    Overrated: Kelly Pavlik (good, but still overrated), David Haye (Already touted as the future of the HW division despite never facing a legit top 10 ten fighter above 200 lbs.)

    Underrated: Antonio Margarito (still considered by many to be a big underdog if he ever has a rematch with P. Williams or Clottey), Juan Diaz ( was considered a pickem' against Katsidis despite obviously proving he was already a class above the australian).

    Ishe Smith! LMFAO!!:patsch
    He's lost every big fight hes had....how is he underrated? Anybody who loses to Sergio Mora is not underrated in my book.

    The guy gets no pub, it's amazing. I'm glad I get Showtime or else I would've never seen him fight. I can't wait to see what he can do at 130.
