    He's an ATG already.
    About 6 years ago "The Ring" ran an article rating the top lightweights of all time. Shane made the list. He was devastating at 35 with not one fighter even close to him at the weight. He then went on to win titles after jumping a weight division at 47 and 54. Thats an ATG.

    Shane never gave himself that nickname. He got given it because he used to roll his hands the same way Sugar Ray Robinson. Anyway Shanes definitly earnt the nickname. Certainly not on a level of Robinson or Leonard but he's definitly sweet.

    Shanes foot work isnt as good as Floyds and his not that great at really cutting off the ring against movers like Floyd as Shane has always fought on the front foot. That said Shane is one of the BEST conditioned fighters in the history of boxing. He's ALWAYS in shape. If you think Shane wont have the legs to last 12 rounds you're crazy.
