"Many" like WHO? :leostare:
I specifically remember The Ring Magazine naming putting him in the Top 15 of an ATG LW list.

I also remember other writers/analysts putting him up there as a great. Don't remember the specific ones off the top of my head. But I do remember him being mentioned. I'll have to go search to see if I can find more.

It's probably ONE WRITER not RING magazine as a whole. I remember a RING magazine writer wrote an article claiming that Arthur Abraham & Felix Sturm were ATG Middleweights :pachaha: The RING has lost alot credibility & objectivity over the past years for a variety of reasons. But it's not even close to being a consensus on Shane being an ATG at Lightweight. One guy is probably all you can find with that opinion.

I read that a lot of people got the better of sweet pea in sparring because he used to just clown and practice defense.
Sparring and fighting are 2 different things. You cant let your training partners perception of winning, take out off your game of working fundamentals.

agreed. you need to lose your ego in order to learn. a lot of boxers are monsters in the gym beating on everyone but when it comes to fight night they arent the same.

My cousin was like that. We'd go in the basement and he'd floor me with jabs and hooks. Go to training, beating the daylights out of his training friends. Then when it came time for his first fight, and he was getting punched in the face FOR REAL FOR REAL by someone who wanted put a hole in his head, he never boxed again.

i was the opposite. i got my ass kicked for 3 months straight in sparring before my first fight. even the last sparring session before the fight i got beat up. but i won my first fight. i won my first 3 before losing.

Get off my dikk
name some WW in the past 20 years better than Shane
He's one of the best fighters ever to fight in that weight class thats a fact

Pernell Whitaker is a great fighter but so are a lot of guys



come on man, Floyd would of destroyed Ramirez at the same stage in his career
its not up for a debate

James Tony and Pernell Whitaker are not comparable to mayweather in any way shape or form, them nikkaz be slurring like drunk uncles
they obviously took too many shots

Mayweather
Hopkins
Pernell is a distant third, when it comes to defensive

as a whole Mayweather is a better fighter by a large margin its not up for debate

the only thing that's ever been clear in your posts is a) you're a young cat who knows shyt about boxing and b) you need to use spell check and learn how to spell fighter's names correctly :russ:

All you can do is make dismissive comments when someone disagrees with you
you can offer nothing of substance except "you don't know shyt about boxing"

At least King P replied to me with some factual information when he disagreed with one of my posts

you don't come with shyt other than some bullshyt like you roger mayweather or something
get the fukk outta here

nobody in the boxing world think Pernell Whitaker is seeing Mayweather
Nobody said Pernell was the greatest of all time, people say that about Mayweather, real fighters and people in the gyms
you don't know what you're talking about

He never beat an all time Elite level fighter, thats nobody can say any names

King P most likely hasnt dealt with your posts before lol..i have...yet you also have 2 ppl in this thread besides that told you that you have no idea what youre talking about..you've prolly never even seen pernell fight at any point in his career other than on youtube..you pull up the whitaker-ramirez 1..one of the most controversial decisions in history and you're basing pernell off that due to the fact he was jobbed and you expect me to respond to you seriously among all the other bullshyt you posted?..get all the way the fukk outta here:camby:
