            Skills don't mean **** if you lack the balls to face the best.

            What if you are the most skilled race car driver in the world, could out race anyone in your own back yard race course, but never race the best? Who gives a **** about you then?

              i never mentioned such things mi amigo...

              & i really dont think skills should be a criteria in defining greatness bcoz its meaningless if u think about it... its quite misleading TBH...

              ivan calderon is one of the best in terms of skills in this era but can u see his name in this website's top 10 this decade?

              then this "0" thing...

              u hav joan guzman who is as "skilled" as they come with zero losses...
              but would an well informed & objective fan be able to tell he is greater than erik morales?

              no... not a chance in hell man...

              its gotta be ur resume of wins against top opposition above all else...

              the circumstances that surrounded those wins...

              then perhaps ur longevity...

                Resume is the first thing on my list when i judge greatness, second is longevity/era, third is skill and last is impact on the sport/intangables like charisma.

                    Resume.

                    Just ask Hagler. He had all the skills of a great, and no one gave a damn till Hearns.
