This is a knock on Catterall. Its like saying, losing to him is a disgrace. It was.

One of the greatest fighters of recent years who never really became great. His skills, speed, and power were something different to watch, but was always hampered by his punch resistance at some point. Wonder how he would transition to being a trainer being that he was so gifted that might be difficult to translate it to younger fighters who most likely won't master the sport the way he has. All well for him after all these years of ups and downs.

Should've called it a day after the Haney fight, champ.
