Do you think as "nice guy" can become a great boxer?

good call! both standup guys

 

Lennox is a great guy. Paulie Ayala is a real gent too Youre right about Tex Cobb too great guy has a never ending supply of great one liners to. Another bonus with Tex is If I'd got to walk through the baddest part of town & could only take one guy with me?? Tex would be my choice

 

alexis arguello was a stand up kind of guy, it seemed

 

Mickey Ward seems like a nice guy.

 

Wlad. Guy looks like a real fragile person outside of the ring.

 

Care to elaborate more on that?

 

Sergio Martinez is a real class act. He's a perfect example of how nice guys can not only finish first, but finish in your mom, as well.

 

In my opinion what you need is discipline, it has nothing to do with being nice or surly. There's tons of fighters who smile and joke around then go into laser like focus when they go to work. Look at Tyson, he has said himself that he was at his best when he felt happy and content with his life outside the ring. We all saw how he deteriorated performance wise in relation to his bitterness and frustration.
I think the 'mean streak' comes into it in regards to the risk to reward ratio of pursuing a Pro Career. How bad do you want to fight people as a CAREER?

 

Andre Ward

 

She most likely left him a while ago. The ***** looked like she was genetically engineered for gold digging in some lab.

 

Michael Spinks was pretty nice and so was Leon.

 

:rofl

Although it would be pretty profitable to genetically engineer an army of gold diggers... :think

Back on topic I think that a lot of these guys aren't really as they portray themselves in promotions and in the ring.

 

Boxers who I've met that are extremely nice are Andre ward, PAC, jermain Taylor, wlad, and the nicest I've ever met was ray Mancini. He never got tired of answering my questions and gave a very long elaborate answer to eeverything I asked. Truly loves meeting people and making friends

 

Who is not a nice guy in boxing? Thugs and criminals are hardly going anywhere. Prime Mike Tyson was also a nice guy.
