    Bang on the button.

    Atheletism speed and power are natural born abilities.

    Skill however is something that is learned and mastered.

    Pacman, RJJ, and Zab, more atheletism than skill.

    Obviously if you're naturally blessed with athleticism and master the skill that would be the ultimate goal, eg Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    He checked all of the boxes to solidify his greatness and then some. Stepped his level up and played unbelievable when games mattered, stared elimination down without batting an eye several times, didnt have a strong supporting cast, faced the best teams in the league, outplayed three other ATG centers, was able to repeat and won Finals MVP both times.

    The clutchest of my all-time fav athletes (Dream, Pedro, B. Sanders, Iron Mike, Hands of Stone). :lol: Tyson obviously the worst.

    Anyone who has Zab Judah or Shane Mosley near their top 10 ever should just go away somewhere quiet and die.

    Have you ever heard of Pernell Whitaker?
