    You don't have to be smart to be a good/great boxer. True or False

    Want to know what you all think, I think of tysons money problems and how he got manipulated by the people around him. Good/Great fighter in many peoples eyes, yet he wasn't exactly the brightest person.

    Or we can say they were smart in the ring, but ****** in their personal lives?

        You can be boxing smart and not be too intelligent in life...

        Tyson wasn't too smart outside of the ring...

        Wilfred Benitez lost most of his fortune and then the disease from too many punches smh

        Being a master in the ring doesn't make you a master outside of it...look at Joe Frazier

          Inteligence in the ring does not equal inteligence outside of it.

          And Tyson ain't a ****** person.Being a young manipulated guy doesn't mean he's ******.

              What he said. 'Intelligence' comes in many forms, and very few people excel in more than a few. You can have plenty of ring-smarts without being able to manage money or understand quantum physics. Don't forget that experience is a huge factor as well; even the naturally smart guys still have to learn from that.
