Bilbo I think we're onto the same train of thought here.

A fighters mentality plays a dramatic part in his development.
A fighter needs to be balanced and centred.

I believe Marco Antonio Barrera was a good example.
Not a great natural athlete.But one knew he would become a success due to his sheer will and determination.

Um, used to play football, runs marathons in his spare time. I'd call that athletic.

I have no idea of the ratio but it is no doubt a combination of nature/nurture. I just think young Donny is seeing it from his own POV, nothing wrong with that ambition.

I have posted on more than one ocaision ref Peter buckley he has been a great servant to boxing for the last 20 odd years & given many an up & coming boxer a good learning fight & far from slagging him off he should be praised for his contribution most times he came in at days sometimes hours notice to save a show without the likes of boxers in the Buckley mould many shows would be cancelled. I hope he stays in boxing what better guy to teach the art of self defence

Yeah good for you donny. A positively positive attitude is the way forward.

Solace in a bottle job by 26. Odds-on.

Just joking son.

If that's the case I like your odds too.

So you're actually quite handy? I didn't realise that. What's your name?
