Im a very smart man (without tooting my own horn). Yet i get my ass whooped every time i step in the ring, by people with not an ounce of education.

Yes i do believe theres a difference between natural born boxers and your average joe, but it doesnt get realised until your elite.

A lot of the Top of the league boxers, people like Mayweather, Hopkins, Tyson, Morales and Barrera were all made to box. They were born with talent, and people without this talent cannot compete. Yet look at the lower ranks there filled with well-trained average joes. They will never be as top as the aforementioned boxing-gods, but they can still be good.

See my point. Theres a very fine line between somebody who has been well trained and somebody with "the talent", but its still there i believe.
