          The UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos could have done great in Boxing, he started training when he was 21 in BJJ then started training Boxing when he was 22 but he's one of the best Strikers in MMA along with being the UFC Heavyweight Champion already. He's an amazing Fighter he keeps improving too

            More Combat Sports Athletes should be mentioned, Dos Santos is among the ones who could have done great in Boxing it's hard to say what level for sure he'd but he'd likely would have been an elite Boxer

              Hockey goalies have some of the quickest upper body reflexes of any athlete. Have the flexibility of gymnasts and superior leg strength and stamina with unwavering focus and mental toughness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP0Fr...eature=related

                I'm a HUGE Ronaldo fan, but a boxer? He'd never be that.

                  Football players don't fitness. Ray Lewis would gas out in a few rounds. My answer would be Chris Pronger.

                    I don't watch other combat sports but I caught this fight years ago on tv and I always thought this dude Ernesto Hoost would have been a pretty good boxer.
