    There is a huge, HUGE difference between simply ''celebrating'' or being excited about a new talent (when in tennis in 2013 Dimitrov beat Djokovic for example), and hyping someone as if you're a neuroticism suffering ****** on psychedelic mushrooms.

    No, I am on about a particular boxer. Call it before it happens, like I have done previously

    I don't see how Canelo is hyped around here to be honest. If anything he is underrated. He outboxed a fighter that was suppose to give him a boxing lesson and everyone cried robbery for a year. Everyone wanted him to fight Lara. He fought him and everyone *****ed about the close fight. Nobody at 154 will look good against a fighter like Lara. I agree on Thurman. I have to admit I bought the hype for Porter. I'm also still not sold on Loma but I think that GGG is the absolute truth.

    I would add Rigo. He looked great against one type of boxer that was already on the downside in Donaire and is proclaimed to be the greatest pure boxer ever by some fans. I want to see him against different types of fighters because he looked less then spectacular against Cordoba and Maroquin.

    I used to be down on Canelo when I wrote this thread but I've come around on him, now I'd actually consider myself a fan.

    Rigo is definitely overhyped, very skilled but overhyped.

    The TS is the same person who's created dozens if not hundreds of vanity threads dedicated largely to hyping up boxers, right?
