Ah c'mon another NFL player going into boxing. I guess these people don't actually realize how hard boxing is. Boxing is the hardest sport in the world, it mixes an incredible phyisical condition, great techinque, mental strenght and a lot of heart. Lots of people believe that it's just about being huge and muscular and going into a ring throwing punches like a madman ...

I haven't seen this guy, but claiming that he's the next HW world champion? Yeah he's big and he may tackle a lot of opponents in the NFL, but this is boxing. Has he seen Wlad and Vitali? Those guys are even bigger! And 270 pounds? He's not going to be able to mantain a decent fight for 12 rounds ... well not even 5 rounds actually.

Also, does this guy has taken a hit from a hard puncher? In the NFL they use helmets, they don't receive punches to the chin from the hardest punchers in the world!

[Rip Chudd]

His career will be short lived.

Judging by the last 3 pages of Pro Football Players get gassed and whooped by journeymen posts, I'd say not much of a chance!!

However, I'll reserve judgement on him till I've seen him fight.

his manager says he is quicker than ali and punches harder than tyson. Edwards says he is going to be the greatest heavyweight ever. He says he is beating the crap out of all his sparring partners already.

You can't just "start" boxing. If you don't pick it up early at like 12-15 years old, you won't make it.

The K bros have been boxing their entire lives

Yeah well there are some exceptions such as Maravilla Martinez who started boxing when he was 20 years old, but it's very rare.

These guys from the NFL actually think that boxing is not that hard, and that just because they're strong they are going to be able to triumph in boxing. Boxing is completely different from American Football...

But Manny Steward says that Edwards has the raw talent to be the greatest heavyweight ever.
