It's not that people overrate Taylor. It's that Martinez is being overrated.

Take Martinez completely out of the equation and I think Taylor is over rated.

Looking at his technique it baffles my mind that he was ever even a champion, much less "the man" at one point.

Taylor's technique is hella better than Martinez's garbage ass shit.

Taylor tries to fight a conventional boxer technique and does it sloppy.

Martinez doesn't. He fights an unorthodox style that gives his opponents trouble. The same way a guy like Hamed fought very unconventional, but it was effective.
