Athletes who you think could've been boxers

Paul Sculthorpe man of steel!

 

I heard that Wayne Rooney once was expect to become a boxer, but chose football instead!

 

what?????

 

yeah also supposedly ricky hatton was going to do football and chose boxing instead thats why there supposed to be good mates

 

It was in the papers a couple of month back got in a bar brawls caught on cctv

 

Linford Christie, explosive power!

 

I bloody love Christie!

I was showing my 5 year old son clips of him in his prime to inspire him for his sports day at school

Awesome!

 

Yeah!
Former Sts and Great Britain Rugby League player Paul Sculthorpe was as hard as nails.

people talking about football (soccer) players need to get real.
Vinnie was once offered a chance to play centre ina Rugby League game and he bottled it. The two sports are in a seperate universe when it comes to toughness.

 

Quite funny! but it look like they made the right decision..

 

What about Jonah Lomu!

 

Lomu was an all time great Union player and would have also been an excellent Rugby League player.

I'm not convinced about his heart though, he looked awesome when running over someone but never really fancied it too much when it got tough. Joost Van Der Westhausen and co had his number even in the 95 World Cup Final, they stood up to him and the raging beast of earlier i the tournement disappeared.

Meninga would have mullered him.

 

So many athletes from other sports could've been boxers. Most young kids don't box but play football, baseball, and basketball. That's where most of the best young talents pursue their dreams.

 

It was a juvenile detention center for the most dangerous juveniles. This was in Boston. I was there for five years and it was pretty bad place.
