    good example of an underrated fighter. Apart from the Flips who horribly overrate him, Pacquiao is severely underrated on ESB

    Sometimes I think Lennox Lewis is made out to be a bit better than he was (which was pretty damn good anyway).

    On the same note, the Klitschko's get bashed a lot here. (Nope, I'm not a Klitschko fan).

    The Golden Boy is slightly underrated, mainly because people seem to focus more on his recent performances and sometimes on results rather than fighting ability itself.

    Calderon is the epitome of an underrated fighter, IMO.

    It's a shame Floyd gets so much hate as well, the guy is one of the greatest boxers ever, and all a lot of people seem to want to do is disrespect him. :bart
