Agreed 100% with Locche. He's definitely gone from overrated to underrated. Think I remember a recent matchup where people were picking Hatton...
I was impressed by Kingpetch in the Perez win.
Lmao! Right on the front lines, I'm sure.
I wouldn't put a stoppage out of the realm of possibility.
I think Ali wins with much room to spare. I think Bowe has a better shot with Holmes.
I just rewatched Quartey-Philips an hour ago. Yeah, I think Quartey would stop Honeyghan late.
Naz gets proper respect. Yeah, Frietas has gotten a little underrated.
The key to beating Tszyu was firepower. Tim's lack of it is why I can't pick him.
Another one who comes to mind: Michalczewski: He was extremely overrated 20-25 years ago. Now, he's almost treated like a joke. He was an...
I'm kind of the middle of both opinions. I think 99-00 Tszyu would break Bradley down. But its not as simple as just ending him with one punch.
Bowe got a shot?
List some guys who were overrated in their primes, but have been so ripped since that they're now underrated. There's three guys who come to mind...
Who wins?
Yes, Roman should be in. So should Moon and Watanabe.
Happy Lora is in the exact same boat as Rose. Very brief prime, but got a lot done in that short span. Rose and Lora should both be in the Hall....
Barry McGugian I think had the shortest peak of any HOFmer. Literally his peak was only 85.
Carlos Zarate, prime only lasted 76-78. Though to be fair, he was in his prime before he won the title from Martinez.
He's a coward begging for a Canelo payday. But Canelo is out for another year, so who knows what Charlo will do next. Won't be fighting a quality...
Masao Ohba, like Sanchez, died at 23 in a car accident. Prime lasted from 70-73.
Leonard did the most in the least amount of time. Prime only lasted 80-82.
Hoping Bivol beats the fuck outta this heavyweight parading around as a light heavyweight.
They are.
Yes, Haney is coming across as a fighter who actually wants to test himself, which automatically makes him more respectable than Tank and Ryan....
It's more winnable for JCC at 130-135 than 140. I think there's quite a few ATGs that would beat Chavez at 140, and Floyd is one of them.
Tyson might not even belong here, because Mike never really fell off a cliff like Saad, Pryor, and Curry did. Tyson was past his prime by the...
Then if Bowe doesn't meet your ATG criteria, I would say Saad, who's a consensus ATG. Saad's prime was shorter than Tyson's and Pryor's.
I do think Rigo counts as a great, BTW. I think he deserves to be in the HOF. But there's levels of great, at least IMO. He's not an ALL TIME...
Among guys considered ATGs, it's gotta be Bowe. Peaked in the early 90s, washed up by the mid-90s. But really I say Bowe because many of us say he...
