    Statistically, it's harder to be an elite QB

    But a QB is just one cog in a machine (a very major cog, perhaps, but still just one of many), whereas a boxer only truly has themselves to blame if things go wrong. For that reason, I say it's harder to be an elite boxer. The greatest enemy is the self

      Boxers only have 1 dude to worry about and they're usually the same size.

      Pro QB, hands down.

      Fight fans being biased

        Well it really depends what you're calling elite and if it's US only. I'd imagine NFL, purely on a numbers basis. I think there are 32 nfl teams? Each only has 1 star quarterback and maybe 2-3 in a reason are considered elite? That comes from an ultimate pool of millions of kids who started with dreams of becoming a pro footballer? We have 17 weight classes in boxing and the pool is far smaller if it's a US only pool.

          QB’s can’t cherry pick their opponents.

          THAT’S your answer.
