Which fighters were born to fight rather than trained to fight?

damn posted in wrong thread

 

You're straight into the old nature/nurture debate.

Without a doubt, the training he received resulted in him becoming a great boxer.

However, IMO, you could have replaced him with a changeling at two days old, and that changeling would not have become as great as Floyd has.

Floyd was born with the moves. They just needed nurturing.




Come to think of it, would we even know if that DID happen?

Floyd snr was a strange old duck.

 

Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Marquez, Ivan Calderon, Joan Guzman...

Less conventional types to some: Margarito, Hatton, Vasquez, Abraham, Pavlik... All born for boxing.
