    In our gym we had a boxer who was at one time german champion at 126 pounds and at first i couldnt catch him, but if you learn how to impose your size, it's not that difficult to fight on par with him (I was fighting at 147).
    But german amateurs are not comparable with other nations who have a deep boxing culture, so I dont really believe I could compete with professional boxers who spend most of their life honing their boxing skills.

    Still, I would like to have a go against Malignaggi lol.
    Y'all keep writing that LOL. Paul's is a professional Boxer with a record of 36-8. That means he beat 36 professional Boxers. The worst bum on his resume, is in the top 1% of Boxers on Earth.

    99.99999% of people on Earth, couldn't Win a 1 on 1 game, with the worst back-bencher, on the worst NBA team. Or even the worst CBA team (if that league is still around, I dont Know).

    Professional athletes are on a WHOLE different level. My dad is an excellent tennis player, but he wouldnt Win 1 Point against the 500th ranked player. Whole 'nother level.

      They wouldnt be getting Paid unless there was a reason for it. Any professional Boxer is in the top 1% of World athletes. Ya, I wouldnt stand a chance against that bum. I Know this thread is supposed to be a ****-measuring contest or whatever, but I'm honest that I would have zero chance. Of course, in my case, that would go without Saying, as I have never Boxed in my life. I just happen to be a Boxing fan.

      By the way, a 0-16 NFL team will beat any non NFL team u can put together in The Whole World.

          No they aren't in the top 1%. You can apply for a license now and organise a fight and guess what? You'd be a pro boxer.

              I thought only the top get to be pros (as in basketball, football, soccer, tennis, etc).
