    In a way, yes. But they are always in a make or brake situation. Volatile and oftentimes unexpected. They'll do all they can to win , at all cost. Psychopaths are by nature cunning and manipulative. So yes, it helps but success varies widely because boxing is a physical sport.

    I don't think Golota was a psychopath at all. He just looked like one and had some anxiety issues in fight situations, which he often resolved by doing something to escape the fight. People who have known Golota, including boxers, describe him as a likeable, funny guy who was shy and anxious at first but always loosened up once you've gotten to know him.

    Carlos Monzon and Jake LaMotta seem to fit the psychopath/sociopath profile.

    Years later, LaMotta still seems to show little remorse about being a ******.

    A psychopath might be someone like evander holyfield... when your still fighting at 48 and fought all the best Tyson, Bowe, Lewis.. you must be a psychopath
