      But Michael Grant is an entirely different situation. He really just doesn't have it.

        what is Grant's big issue? Is it motivation? Confidence? Skill? What?

            Definitely confidence. He was being trained by Teddy Atlas for awhile and not even the guru could help restore his self-belief. It was a combination of the Golata, Lewis, and McCline fights that really hurt him.

            Also, he's too easy to hit. But he's a really nice guy.

              He has confidence issues but regardless of that his chin has proven to be very poor. Probably the best physical specimen I've ever seen box though.

                The thing is that he could've been a factor even with his chin being as it is with a little confidence. But he has nothing, if without confidence.

                  Grant never wanted to fight anyway. Why now?

                    He took on all the tough fights, never ducked anyone.
