    I would argue Thomas Hearns despite his power was an S-tier boxer/puncher first. That was as much his game as Benitez's. He was never actually outboxed in his entire career. And Sumbu Kalambay outboxing McCallum is an extremely good shot out

    I’d argue that Benitez isn’t actually an ATG.

    True enough, but wasn't Roy getting a little long in the tooth? I can't quite remember.
