seeing how he is the premier boxer right now and has been since being p4p since 2005 and he recieves so much biased hate from people abroad, and his gets criticized fro his resume, where do you rank him as far as skillset all time.
imo he's the most fluent fighter i've ever seen skillwise.
his jab is one of the greatest thrown jabs ever
his lead right hand ranks amongst the top 10 period
his movement as far as head/upperbody movement is untouchable
his left hook whether a counter check left hook or lead right hook is the sharpest thrown hook i've seen in decades
his ability to fight in the pocket is amazing
his ability to fight and counter off of the ropes is amazing
he threw one of the greatest and sharpest combos in history against gatti in round 6 of their fight.
his defense is the best of his era, no contest-blocking and slipping punches-countering off of the shoulder roll on the ropes or in the pocket, just beautiful
his body work is completely underrated, he goes to the body whether with the jab or hook is a thing of beauty
his ability to go from defense to offense whether to the head to the body or vica versa is a thing of beauty
his ability to fight off of the back foot, damn near flawless
his stance is one of a kind-he can keep his hands down and throw any punch or keep them up and threw any punch
his accuracy and timing are oustanding---his stamina is amazing--he's a 15 round fighter
his overall intelligence in the ring is the best i've seen in decades
his ability to fight through injuries is amazing--i always said had he not had bad hands, his knockout ratio would be so much higher
his overall skillset and brilliance in the ring ranks amonst the top 10, and imo him, ali, and sugar ray robinson are the most skilled fighters of their era and my top 3 most skilled all around fighters ever.
