Is it hard to become a top boxer like Floyd Mayweather?

Become the butterfly, be the Bee.

It's real easy. All you do is put your left hand down and make it come across your lower abdomen and your right hand tucked under your chin. That's it, you have the knowledge now, go make 200 million a night!

On a serious note don't be ******, stay at uni and make a good living while maintaining your health. Ever wonder why mayweathers or any other notable boxers kids don't become boxers? It's a sport that you learn from a kid, usually those growing up in the goods, ******s and slums. It's a way to keep them out of trouble and some end up being special like mayweather and becoming stars. I'm sure if they were brought up by parents with a decent living, they wouldn't be boxing, they would be going to university wanting to become businessman, lawyers, doctors etc.

After I finished uni I decided to give boxing a real crack, I started training with top coaches and often sparring with guys who fought in the commonwealth games. Believe me it's not worth it, the sacrifices you have to make are crazy and for what? The chance to become 1 in a million that makes it big. Stay at uni, work hard and live a decent life I say.

It would be almost impossible. You would have to have great natural talent for boxing and that means very fast hands and feet, great coordination and timing. You would also need a great chin, courage, and a love an dedication to boxing. You would need good teachers and to start boxing at about six years old. You must train hard and stay in shape. You have to win all your fights over good opposition and win a world title at 21 years old. If you accomplish all this you might start making good money and be able to live a little of Mayweather's life style. Good luck with your near impossible dream.

I find it hard to believe that you go to a "university".

I met Floyd when I was a teen (he was a teen also). He had exceptional and freaky talent... Not to mention work ethic.

Please stop posting about Floyd

Well I hope you are trolling , because if you arent then you should drop out of uni but not to become a boxer but a burger king worker , you have no brain and will probably fail @ uni and in real life ..... but you probably trolling so all good.

Floyd just cherrypicked his way to the top. He very rarely fought a prime fighter who wasn't weight-drained or faded. It's pretty easy to do that. Many think he lost 3 or 4 fights too so there is a degree of luck involved with the judges but overall being a career-long cherrypicker is pretty straightforward.

if cherry picking your way to the #1 p4p spot and earning minimum 30 million/fight is so easy, why aren't more people doing that? besides Pacquiao
