    Someone mentioned reflexes. I'd add pulling the trigger. If a guy had beaten good fast fighters, then loses to average speed mediocre ones, that's a good indication that he's shot.

    Hloyfield's still strong as a bull, but IMO he's shot because of all the fights he's looked bad in against guys he would've destroyed before.

    Roy Jones is interesting. I know he's past his prime but I'm not sure if he's shot because he lost to Calzaghe. Like him or not, Calzaghe is not an easy fight for anyone. I think we'll know a lot more about Jones after his next fight or two.
