    He didnt run! The fact is Pav was and is still drinking! He made up the excuse of Money for the BUTE fight to Cancel his fight with Cinningham because he wasnt ready to fight! Most Likely was overweight and wasn't training at 100% and partying during Camp again!

    Bute impressed me by the way he dominated Johnson even tho he is 42. But there are still questions unanswered because he DOMINATED a 42 yr old!

    Bute would be a great fight for any SMW and i also think he would beat JEAN Pascal!

    It has to be Alvarez, many people here in Mexico don't like him, me included, but outside of here he is seen like a future great which to me he isn't, people forget he has fought pretty bad opposition, and got rocked by cotto's brother. He seems like the Televisa's chavez jr.

    So what? I think that at the moment Rios is a more solid fighter than Khan.

    10yrs from now I'm sure it will be a different story, but the question was "who is the most overrated boxer today"... not in 10 years.

    IMO, Khan is regarded MUCH too highly considering what he's shown us so far.

    Possibly Timothy Bradley ....... decent enough fighter but should not be in the Ring Magazines top 10 P4P.

    Today's over-rated boxers.

    Oh ****, where to begin?

    Kessler, Bute, Klitschos, Johnson, Dawson, Danny Green, Lebedev, Author Abraham, to name a few.

    Khan

    People want to talk about him like he's the future of the sport but he'll get knocked on his ass against any decent puncher he faces count on it

    The OP made it clear couldn't pick Floyd or Manny. So I've got to go with Wladimer Klitschko. People talk like he is a top 10 atg heavyweight when he's probably at the back end of top 25. He is by far the most dominant heavyweight right now but historically he is overrated at least by fans on ESB.

    Any decent puncher.. not including Maidana? Maidana isn't very skilled but you can't argue about his power. You can say what you like about how Khan's chin held up in that fight, but the fact is he wasn't put down and he got the win. If he survived Maidana's power, he can survive most 'decent punchers'.
