If Lebron James took up Boxing?

Do you think that if Lebron James trained in boxing since he was a kid, he could have been Heavyweight Champion of the World? He has a 7'0.25 wingspan, is 6'8, and has freakish athleticism.

But he also needs to be our centerback, keeper and target man to dominate other sports we aren't the best at too.

What if he has no chin? No heart? Too tough to say.

no heart...

He would cry to the ref constantly and flop to try to get points taken away from his opponent.

If he started in the gym when he was a kid he would have a chance.

Extremely unlikely. Boxing is the most difficult sport there is and heavy weight is it's least forgiving division, if you're mediocre you won't be losing by points.

It doesn't detract from his achievements in his sport though, the overwhelming majority of elite athletes couldn't execute whilst getting punched in the face, and liver without a team mate or bench in sight.

Dimensions are just a part of it.

So much more to factor in.
