    If you've never seen his fight with McCallum, then how can you judge him simply based on the Nunn fight?

    He also schooled Barkley, and Steve Collins.

    Tyson Fury. The only boxer ever to fight both southpaw and orthodox. Master.

    There's ****ing loads. A master boxer is someone who's either a master at the one style/their style, or a great all rounder. It's subjective.

    Kalambay was amazing. I'd say he was better than Mayweather.
