    In terms of skills . . . I don't think he lacks anything at all. He has everything ne needs to win fights as he has proven, he is still undefeated right? :D

    What he lack . . . is the urgency and the balls to fight deserving quality oppositions to cement his claim as the number P4P fighter.

    The competition of ATG's in their prime, like the early 80's welters, Ali's opponents: Liston, Foreman Frazier..........

    i have to question a guy who feels that he has accomplished it all....especially when he is only 30yrs old. any guy that would lie to himself like that has to lack truthfulness.

    They would have been entirely different fighters. They certainly would not have been as defensively minded carrying so much power, if they were indeed devastating punchers. They both would have been more hittable IMO, more flat-footed without question.

    Nothing from a boxing perspective .

    He has power can explode with 2 or 3 punch combos at any given momement ..Is a thinking man's boxer can adapt to any style presented to him ..Great defensivly ..If anyone thinks he lacks anything as far as boxing well then u don't know boxing !
