I am not sure what thread you are referring to but I have no idea why any of these athletes from other sports assume that because they are good at BBall, Baseball, football etc it meas they will be good at Boxing...Big difference...You are not getting rest between plays,,,no time on bench...You have to fight 3 minutes of every round....You have punches coming to your face...from men who have trained to do nothing but KO you.....Sure hits on the field from a 300lb linebacker hurt but like I said you don't always get hit that hard you get knocked down....Elbows from a BBall player are not like uppercuts from a fighter....Baseball players are the least likely to be able to adjust....

the thought is crazy...How many have tried? how many have succeeded? You would think they learn from history...OR are they all just that cocky?
