    Kirkland Laing might just be the most overrated British fighter ever.

    Austin overrated when he was active but yeah, a bit forgotten nowadays.

    Henry Hank is somewhat forgotten. He and Joey Giardello had Ring's fight of the year
    In 1962.

    you know...i'm going add franscesco damiani here too...

    some say he was robbed of his gold medal at the 84 olympics.
    a defeat he avenge in the pro ranks beating the very good tyrell biggs

    he was giving prime ray mercer a lesson before getting ko'd

    i know he's not one of the greats...but i do think he is kinda forgotten about and underrated......and if a prime damiani was around today you can bet money he'd give either of the klits a damn good workout.
