    The TS is in no position to make a thread on this subject matter and include Floyd, Dawson, or Taylor on their list. The TS has stated on numerous occasions that Pacquiao is the GOAT, AND the best ever 147lber...that tells you everything really.

    3. Margarito: excellent warrior and a true hard ******* mexican, but doesnt have the skills to justify him being called one of the great fighters of the past 10 years. Technically flawed. Thats my own personal opinion but im sure Pacquiao fans would disagree :tong

    2. Wlad Klitschko: Had everything his own way for too long. Dominating a **** generation of heavyweights.

    1. Pacquiao: No doubt he is one of the best fighters in the last 10 years, but I put him in here purely because people are really, really overrating him simply by ranking him alongside the likes of Ali, Frazier, Johnson, Leonard, etc... Also because he prefers a certain kind of fighter. One who will walk onto punches and who isnt necessarily that fast!! Fantastic warrior but made to look better than he is!!

    .....................................................................................

    I missed out....

    Taylor/Hatton/Cotto: I dont think any of these guys where overrated. They where all excellent for a time but just struggled to revive their careers after losses. Taylor not the same after KP. Hatton not the same after Mayweather. Cotto not the same after Margarito.

    Haye isnt regarded as a great heavyweight so he isnt overrated.

    Harrison has never been regarded as a good heavyweight so he isnt overrated.

    Ruiz fought a lot of good fighters in their prime and won some, lost some. Not regarded as a great heavyweight so isnt overrated.

    If someone like Harrison can fight for a title and sold out an arena someone must overrates him

    I rate him on one fight ?

    What about his fights with Sprott ?

    It was haye who sold out the arena. It isnt exactly a big arena ya know. If it was truly a big fight it would have been in the O2. Anyway, that fight was all about money for both fighters!!

    The event sold because no-one likes Harrison, and wanted to see him get knocked out again.

    The people "getting behind" Harrison on this forum probably weren't taking it seriously.
