Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo: I Feel Like I Done Faced Better Guys, Tougher Opponents Than Castano

Boxers aren’t usually known for their education. It’s not exactly a sport that kids aspire to get into. It’s usually not a sport you find in high schools, not in colleges, there’s no scholarships, no real “league”, no educational support for aspiring boxers. Boxing is really a sport you are more likely to get into if you are poor, from a poor neighborhood, poor school district, poor parents or no parents. For some of the most successful boxers in history, finishing High School wasn’t even a thing.

You can list a ton of boxers who graduated HS, or went to college or got their PhD, it won’t change that boxing doesn’t usually attract scholars. I mean you have a better chance at being successful in boxing if your pre k-12th was boxing. I doubt we will see too many University of Oxford graduates go on to become successful boxers.

tl;dr: Illiterate boxers in pro boxing has literally been happening for over 100 years. It is a sport for poor people. Poor upbringing = higher chance of being uneducated.

Fully aware of all of your points, having kept up with the sport for 60 years.
But that was one of the dumbest comments I've seen, grammar wise. Made him and the sport look less stellar IMO.

Castano is not an old Austin trout, or a Tony Harrison that fades in the later rounds. He has faced Lara and Soro, and is more than ready for Charlo.

Friend, when you get to this stage... either accept the fact you're mortal, or live in fear.
I chose to accept mortal, live each day as I please, and along the way try to learn as much as possible. Cheers

I'm not the one making himself look ****** by spewing a horrendous version of the English language.
All I did was call him out for it. Sorry if that makes you so very uncomfy. Try to get past it, snowflake.

I'm glad you managed to see the error of your ways and apologise.
I forgive you.

Plant-pot.
