How can you define dedication? All the top athletes in the world are as dedicated as can be. Imagine cyclist and other athletes.

I would say they are as dedicated as any other athlete

I think when an elite boxer is in training its arguable. I also think Boxers in general are the best athletic shape. However in a lot of other sports they only have a couple weeks off per year so in that sense they are the most dedicated as it is a full time job which affects their whole life for the over a decade usually.

Plus Arreola.....but boxing is the type of sport that athletism can push you real far like RJJ and Toney

Not always. When James Toney was at the top of his game he spent more time in the kitchen than in the gym.

Exactly.

If you were born being super athletic (like RJJ) you can get pretty far without 110% dedication.

And I think Toney was super knowledgeable about the sport of boxing.
