Yes, I see his point and agree that you can't just throw a guy in there. It takes some grooming and sifting out who just isn't cut to make it. But I'm not going to be bias and ignore the truth that guys have come from other sports and been successful. A football player, basketball player, wrestler, and a cyclist have had at least some success in boxing and all quit their sport and started boxing in their 20s. Its been proven it can be done.
