Agreed with the discipline part. It's crazy to think even with as far as they got and all they DID manage to accomplish what guys like Fury, Andy Ruiz (and Mike Tyson) and I'm sure a host of other guys could have achieved if they had the discipline and pride in their craft of say someone like Floyd Mayweather...

It’s because they are getting overpaid

If they weren’t I’m pretty sure more would be disciplined in their craftComment

I used to think the same thing about Benitez until I looked into his career a bit more. He started super young but also sparred A LOT! His father was very hard on him but sparring was basically his training and oftentimes without headgear. He also wasn’t the most disciplined outside the ring which combined to contribute to his sudden decline. He was shot in his 20s. It was and is sad.Comment

He is only 10 years older than me which is pretty sobering. Also, he was married to SRL's sister, making him Rays brother in law, which is kind of interesting.
