Boxers who didnt have a rough upbringing?

Juan Diaz...

Muhammad Ali 's folks owned their own home in a middleclass neighborhood in Louisville,KY. Poverty was never an issue in the Clay household.

I don't know this for a fact, but I get the sense that the Klischko brothers (Vladimir/Vitali) were well off at and from birth.

Other fighters suspected of not having a "rough up-bronging" are:

• Sugar Ray Leonard
• Oscar De La Hoya
• Joe Calzaghe
• Lennox Lewis

Oscar Delahoya was from gangland, East Los Angels and he was poor. How he stayed away from gangs can only be attributed to boxing and his dad pushing him to the gym.

Other boxers that i know had rough upbringing were....

Jesus Chavez
Johhny Tapia
Fernando Vargas
Julion Letterlough r.i.p
Ricardo Mayorga
Michael Carbajal

Oscar was not that poor but he did have rough time.

Every human being have a rough time it doesnt have to be finical.

Hi Ferocity where have you been?

Oscar was poor. His family was receiving food stamps and that yellow government chesse. Yeah, Delahoya is very rich now, but he did come from a poor family.

I've been here just waiting for the 29, Sept or at least next week when Arreola fights on telefutra damn the september blues.

stolen cigs LOL! pac actually didnt bring his brother when he went to manila. bobby was left with their mom. he was also a baker's hand, and a construction worker at 13 or 14 i think.

pretty much most of the european fighters..

personallly im from denmark, and what we percieve as ****** or a rough neighbourhood, isnt anywhere near, the enviroment that some of the african, south american or american fighters experience..

basically the standards of living. without knowing the exact number or percentages, i would go so far as saying, that at least 7 out of 10 danish boxers comes from a rather normal enviroment.

Shane Mosley, Baby Joe Mesi, Floyd Mayweather, Jr, etc.
