I’m a massive Janibek fan, definitely think he’s hugely underrated for how insanely skilled he is and for being a unified champion.
I think it´s because barely anyone knows of him. He beat 3 Brits, a Canadian and a German on route to becoming a unified champion while fighting in America. Oh, and all of the opponents had little name recognition in their own countries. And now he is fighting another unknown guy, this time from New Zealand.
Yeah but just because they aren’t well known guys doesn’t mean they aren’t good opponents. They’re still ranked by The Ring or TBRB in his last few fights iirc. It’s not Janibek’s fault none of the big names want nothing to do with him.
Deverachenko? Could only have one loss, been world champion and beaten most of the bests in his division…
That´s another problem. There are no big names! Carlos Adames Hamzah Sheeraz Erislandy Lara Liam Smith Chris Eubank Jr. ... The division is completely dead. Apart from Eubank and Smith, no one else can even sell tickets. There are no big names in the division besides Eubank.
Arguably beat everyone he ever faced. Kinda crazy that not a single one of those decisions went his way. Truly the best boxer of the 2000s not to win a title.
Oleksandr Usyk followed by Tyson Fury these two earned their share the hard way. None of their hype was given....they didn't even get hype. Usyk still hasn't got hype. Couldn;t be more proud and glad that someone like this wiped all the bumnelo's and Crawfish's off the made up map.
THAT! A champion with one hundred percent knockouts. Artur Beterbiev is underrated on both the LHW ATG list and the LHW H2H list.
Jermell Charlo. I have never seen another 4 belt undisputed champion be as disrespected as him....................
Usyk has always been widely accepted as one of the elites in the world as a Cruiser weight. His move to HW just solidified him as a p4p fighter. I have yet to go to any boxing site and see Usyk's career not getting the respect it deserves.
