    Hatton - An improved defense without weakening his offense.

    Calzaghe - More power (Many fighters who have fought him have said that he does hit quite hard (Eubank) however there are many more powerful punchers than him in his divison and if he brute power in both hands whilst landing the amount of punches he does, he would simply be untouchable).

    Pernell Whitaker - Power

    Tyson - I'd liked to have seen Tyson have a few more advantages, if he'd had Cus longer, more stamina and a much better mentality he would have been unstoppable.

    I think you have "work ethic" and "work rate" mixed up. I think you meant to say "work rate". And i agree. But "work ethic"? No one has a better one than The Executioner.

    Dedication for james toney. Technical boxing skills for Roy Jones. Better Work rate for Bernard Hopkins. More power for Sweet Pea. Less Machismo for Erik Morales. More fighting brain for Jermain Taylor. Heart for Audley harrison (he is not among my favourite fighters).

    C'mon SMF....he's only been stopped once. A novice who walked into a world championship bout, winning the fight, got careless..... and got hit well. Nye Nye Mundine..

    Other than that, he's been dropped a few times...C'est la vie His recoveries have been great.

    A blokes never really had the gloves on, if he's never been knocked down.

    Come on Flamengo, u saying he has a good chin? Mate, the guy's the hardest bloke in the world to hit, thats why he hasnt been stopped more. As soon as he gets clipped he looks hurt.

    If he could cop punishment like Danny Green, then he would be more aggressive and beat anyone out there.
