    considering the number of boxers who come from tough situations and environments as well as the nature of the sport being that of violence, i'd imagine that percentage could be higher in the boxing world.
    i mean a boxer has to either enjoy punching people in the face or not mind getting hit in the face...all for the remote chance at some monetary success and glory.
    you almost HAVE to be a little bit off.
    I don't have either of what you named. I'm in boxing because I was told I hit hard and can make money for doing it. I don't actually think about hurting someone unless they're hurt. I know some ppl that can think of something that pissed them off and use that aggression on someone. I've never been able to do that, my mind is blank. But when I hit the heavybag I have anger in my face and punching it with a lot of force. Yet I have nothing going on in my head towards anger.

    I also don't like getting hit in the face, reason why I keep a high guard. Can't even risk it.

                No one knows about them because they're not up in tier to be recognized so highly as these ppl were and to still be at the stage they were. Analogy explained.
