Is brandon vera the most over rated fighter?

Question

i know he has a win over frank mir but that was right after his accident i dont think right now he can beat frank mir what do you think

Answer 1

No, I don't think Vera is over rated. I think the stoppage against Werdum was a rip off and he said himself that the weight cut to 205 really took a toll on him. If you've never had to cut weight, it is an agonizing experience. I think that Vera can definitely do it, but with it being on fairly short notice this time and with this being his first time to have to cut he just made some mistakes in how he went about it. He and his team will look at what they did for this cut and make some changes for the next one. I would personally advise him to do a trial cut or 2 between now and his next fight to see how his body reacts. Some people can cut 25 - 30 pounds with no real problem others have a hard time with 10 or 15. He had a bad showing Saturday and kind of an unlucky break against Werdum, but his skills are real.

Answer 2

he's only lost when he had a broken hand, and when a terrible referee stopped the fight early. Besides, the most overrated fighter is Rashad Evans.

Answer 3

No he is not overrated. He's just an undersized heavyweight. He usually goes into his fights smaller than his opponent. He lost to two of the top 10 fighters in his weight class.
