Like everything else it depends on the fighter, Roy Jones Jr also went really far, and often didn't have the best sparring partners.

natural talent, hard work and a good trainer will of course take you far but put it another way, what would you choose? Quality sparring or not?

Without doubt it must be a huge benefit.. especially confidence wise if you can hold your own in higher company (unless you are getting slaughtered of course)

It's also a matter of the depth of the talent pool.

I think quality sparring is number 1. We look at Riddick Bowe I think he wouldn't have been champion unless Tyrell Biggs didn't beat the shit out of him everyday. I feel he probably wouldn't have done anything as a heavyweight.

Early on Nigel Benn did not spar but after his first defeat he learnt that sparring was essential for timing, tactics and working on combo's.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
