If you could be a pro boxer....which one?

[Cortez The Killer]

Lets say you was offered the chance to go back to starting a boxers pro career at 0-0 with the same talent etc who would you choose? For me its a toss up between Tyson, Leonard and RJJ. All damn talented and had it all, i would change many things if i was Mike (being more focused with training etc) and perhaps looked for bigger fights if i was RJJ. HMM its a close one. Who would you want to be?

I hate to talk about him like he was gone already but I would say Evander Holyfield..

He maximized his talents and exceeded expectation, always came to fight every damn time and left it all in the ring everynite.... Say what you will but the guy was an overcomer and overachiever.. His record isint spotless but thats what make him special, he fought anyone and everyone he was a true warrior...

Evander is a true warrior like you said, but I wouldn't want to be him. You'd be taking a lot of punishment being holy and you would have to train harder than the other guys.

I'd take Tyson. By the time he went pro he already had such a good set of skills, speed, timing and power. All you'd have to do was to make sure you weren't getting taken advantage of by everyone, not slack off during training and not get in a messy divorce in your early 20's before fighting someone named buster.
