    I am going to assume this fighter has PBF's Iron Chin and not Roy's fragile Glass Jaw? :think

    Pernell Whitaker's skillset + Julian Jackson's attributes = /thread
    (That means Pea's chin aswell)

    apparently taking a flush right hand from Ruiz = glass jaw.
    but sure, we'll give him Floyd's chin.

    This thread is just proof that no fighter can have it all. But as time keeps passing, and athletes keep evolving, some of these might come true.

    Money is the closest thing to having it all, which IMO he does.

    Hes the most complete I've seen in my brief lifetime. ATG scale he's probably 20-30, but on a talent/skill scale, hes right near the top of the list imo.

    In his prime and before he added weight, hes good or elite in most categories.

    Elite footwork. Elite Speed. Elite Timing. Elite Accuracy. Elite Punch Placement. ATG Defense. Good Power. Can throw any punch. Elite Counter-Puncher. Elite Combination Puncher (pre 147). Elite Stamina. Elite Work Ethic. Very Good Chin. Elite IQ. Elite Inside Game.

    Too bad his hands are brittle. Because physically, hes a strong guy. When he throws without worrying about his hand he can hurt you. Which is why I think he was throwing so often and so hard at Mosley/Ortiz/Cotto.
    He was fighting once a year then. And would have time to heal his hands before his next fight.

    Now he has to keep them healthy because hes fighting in May and Sept.
