    He could have been if he didnt let his reflexes slide in preference of power punching, which was always good anyway.

    Naseem, although still very successfull, was an ATG that never happened, he was awesome in his early 20s.

    Lewis was sort of Canadian and then had American trainers when he turned pro.Had he stayed in Britain,fought as an amatuer then pro in Britain with British trainers,he probably would`ve been no better than Frank Bruno.But he does all the same top the best British fighters.

    Skills are the last thing I'd claim in defense of Hamed's effectiveness. Terrible technical fighter.
