I would say yes, but not for the reasons that may immediately spring to mind.

It takes heart to put yourself through the grind and better yourself to that level. Many also-rans have had more natural talent than many greats, the difference being that fortitude and will to succeed. This could easily be translated to heart.

Basically, it goes beyond merely taking a beating and coming back in an actual fight.
