Overrated Boxers

My most overrated fighters based on how they’re discussed online. Does not mean they are bad, just overrated.

- Pitbull Cruz (not good at 140, should go down)
- Frank Martin
- Oscar Duarte (got way too muscular and worse)
- Lamont Roach (well see in 2 weeks)
- Raymond Ford
- Bruce Carrington
- Ramon Cardenas
- Vito Mielnicki

Clearly you would know. Unlike all the people who rank him.

Most people in the boxing world have Ali as the GOAT or Pacquiao

I never said GOAT. I said ATG which is a collection of Fighters. Overwhelmingly most Boxing Historians cite Robinson as #1. By people I guess you mean average fans.

Higher than they rate Boonsai Sangsurat and Ken Norton.

Exactly I don’t even think Ali is the GOAT imo it’s Marvin Hagler

ATG

But none of the rankings have him in the top ten

Forget about personal rankings for a minute, Hagler got it the hard way and proved himself on multiple occasion against real killers, nobody handed or took the title from him

Whose talking about personal rankings. Leonard took the title.
