Everyone works hard of course there are some who work a little bit harder but everyone works hard so it's just logical that those with the most natural talent are at the top this is how it is in every sport and just pretty much everywhere in life
You named 2 out of a million. Allen Iverson was a physial Specimen, he could easily overcame the size handicap by athleticism alone. JJ Barea is a benchwarmer for the Wolves. The average PG in the NBA is 6`3.
as Ali said to be great you must have the skill and the will, but the will must be bigger. Skill is only part of it look at Dirrel, Joan Guzman and Judah
There's nothing more common in this world than....wait for it...WASTED POTENTIAL. This is true of anything in life. I work as a social worker I see it everyday...
Pretty much this Iverson was just amazing, the fact he never won a ring and went out like he did make people forget. Please don't compare Judah to Dirrell, Judah never lost to a bum and he chased fights with Pacquiao and Marquez.
that's sports in general dude. you can work as ahard as you want but sometimes you ain't got it and you're not going to be good.... you need some natural talent. but a person who's not as naturally gifted can be better than one that is by working harder, the thing is those very top guys have worked very hard along with having the natural talent so they rise above cause they have the ultimate combination for success in sports
