      It is all mental... Obviously you have to be in great shape and do your roadwork,

      But you also have to be smart, make adjustments, and not panic when things get rough...

      That is how hopkins can still be whooping guys in his late 40's

        Once doubt creeps into a fighter's mind, they're finished in their upcoming challenge(s) or even career. Many fighters enter the ring in peak physical condition, but a fight hinges on the mental sharpness of each fighter and their ability to endure adversity and make adjustments. All of that is done in the mind, the body will certainly react but the body is secondary.

        "Concentration and mental toughness are the margins of victory."

          Yet many criticizes Hopkins, Mayweather, Marquez, Ward, Klisthco who are the greatest examples of mind over physicality..

          Everybody rather have a Ruslan Prodvokinov, Manny Pacquiao, Brandon Rios, etc.. type of fighters and call them greater.
