My point is quite simply this: Everything about a person is part nature, part nurture. If the word talent is to have any meaning, then it's the nature part of a boxers ability (which means it's something you're born with), and the hard work part is the nurture.
Of course there's no boxing talent gene! Geesh
Boxing talent is and can be made up of so many different things, that nailing down exactly what it is, is near impossible. Also, two different fighters with great talent might not be talented in the same way. Their talent will consist of some of the same components, but probably not in the exact same way. Some guy will have a bit more speed to rely on, while the other guy may have a little better timing or strength or something else.
Anyhow, if you've ever seen and worked with a REAL talent, you'll know that it's something they're just born with.
