How is Foreman overrated? No one gave a **** about him before the fight...but yea, he showed the heart of a champion today
Overrated because half the forum chose him to box the socks off a truly great fighter. None the less, after tonight I will always be a Yuri Foreman fan. It's impossible not to like him.
A lot of people chose that way due to styles and a suspicion that Cotto may have had too much taken out of him, not because they thought Foreman was anything other than a good fighter with a great mobility going up against a smaller man that wants to pressure him. I'd pick James Kirkland over Pacquiao too, it doesn't mean I think Kirkland is in Pacquiao's league as a fighter.
Emanuel Steward helped Cotto, but Pac would knock Cotto out again. Foreman was not overrated. Pac would have knocked him out. Roy Jones did a great job of commentating tonight.
