    Why is it that great fighters childeren end up being garbage as prize fighters?

    Chavez's kid is garbage, Camacho's kid is a joke. Ronald Hearns just got KOed by a nobody. Sugar Ray Leonard jr is 35 and is destined to be a scrub. Sugar Shanes kid looks like a Korean ****sexual with a tan, and Foremans kid looked horrendous in his debut. Honestly, Laila Ali puts these guys to shame.

    I think it is the fact that these kids grew up ****ing loaded and were raised with a silver spoon in their mouths, which explains why they suck. They have no hunger because the fridge was full and they went to private schools.

    Is hard to match greatness. None of Michael Jordan's kids are great so it happens in lots of sports.

      At least Floyd Sr can say he turned his son to a great fighter...

      Usually they aint focused enough to be good fighters...why box when my daddy's rich?

            True...I really can't think of any success stories in the way you were saying in boxing...

            Marvis Frazier is another case...Chavez Jr's son might be decent

              The same reason those great fighters ended up being something different thatn what their fathers were,


              because they're entirely different people.


              Are you exactly like your father?
