    Seconded!

    That's the first guy i thought of, lacks talent but focused and has plenty of belief.

    I've been very favorably impressed by PDub's ability to stay cool after suffering some pretty bad cuts. He doesn't paw at them, or even pay much attention to them. He just calmy sits on the stool while the cut man does his thing, and then goes back to work.

    williams is one of my favorite fighters in the game today but after about the 7th or 8th round of the first fight with quintana, he was looking mentally beat

    Fully agree with you! Quintana kept beating him to the punch...as PWill doesn't have any defense.

    Cotto has heart and pride, but mentally not too hard

    Bowe???:huh ***** maybe for not fighting Lewis and lazy for coming in over weight but in the ring he never quits. Even again Golota when he was getting the **** kicked out of him he kept trying to win.

    completely disagree. The fact that he isn't made out of stone and has certain intangible limitations doesn't factor into this discussion at all. Cotto moves from plan a, b and then to c throughout fights that test him, But hes been rocked and stunned in so many fights, cut and all ****ed up in the process while keeping a total poker face, complaining and ***** free. That my friend is a man with LOTS of mental strength.
