He's close enough to Richard and Shiva level, that Shiva herself believed there would never be a winner.
And he even held off Cassandra Cain, who Batman outright admitted he'd lose to (And suffered enough injury in a match to caugh up blood, to his surprise.)

Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.

Yet the monks who trained Connerr stated he holds back. Shiva confirmed this in her own fight with him when she said he lacked the killer instinct (reason she won so easily).
Conner has the skill yes, he just isnt the closer to take this fight Bruce is.
