What DEFINES Greatness... Skills Or Resume?

[BoxCleva]

Most would say a combination of the two but if you could only choose ONE, which would be more important to you in defining what makes a great fighter?

The skills, abilities, style and technique that a boxer displays.

The resume, record and opponents that a boxer has faced and defeated.

The only option is both.

Resume...

If your skills suck but somehow managed to beat the Alis, Leonards, Durans etc. of your era, then you would be greater IMO than someone who has the best skills but has a bad resume.

Skills are nothing if you've never beat anyone of note. I vote for skills

Haven't seen you in a while...


And the answer is resume...although skills may play some part in it...

how the **** do you prove your skills but by your resume.......you just cant claim youre a doctor coz you say so or you have a stethoscope around your neck...you need a resume/records.....

Resume.. because it shows how skilled you are against top competition.

Resume....

A boxer with inferior skills can not win fights and hence, produce a great resume.....

in short, a great resume is a by product of hard training, skills and overcoming the best opponents

[Method Checker]

Both of them.

skills.

nobel prize should be based on one's IQ too.
