Agreed.

Whenever these "FIGHTER X is only good because of NATURAL TRAIT X" discussions come up, and who deserves what, I always think about Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven: "Deserves got nothin' to do with it." Its all about winning. If you can win a fight (or a championship) swinging wildly like Mayorga or with piss poor boxing skills like Froch, than more power to you. I'm not and never will be a Froch fan, but you gotta take your hat off to him.

Would Julio Cesar Chavez have become a legend if it wasn't for his chin? Or Muhammad Ali if it wasn't for his speed and reflexes? Ect ect.
