        Lennox was solid, but nothing real special like a young Hamed or Calzaghe.

                Naseem had great reflexes and extraordinary power, Sonny Jim.

                Joe has surpassed him in boxing ability since day 1.

                  Lewis was never able to get over with the American public like Naseem Hamed. Calzaghe stands a chance of getting over because of his ability, but his time is running out to cross over.
