    How good would anyone be at any sport if they had the right anthropometry for said sport?

    Being good at sports is 90% about working on it and developing your skills if you are the right size/have the right body metrics for the sport.

    And with boxing it has been proven that you do not need power or chin to reach big heights, think Paulie and Amir...

                  He would have been a bum.

                  He was in MMA because he can’t box, just like everyone else in MMA. If you could box, you would pick boxing and make more money.

                    Would have been a good firefight against AJ. If he could take a few punches might make AJ have a mental breakdown. Reckon Fury, Ruiz Jr. and Wilder handle him easy enough.
