I was thinking today about whether talent actually means anything. If you have two guys who start boxing at the same time, one is clearly more talented than the other and can master the footwork and punches straight away whereas the other guy struggles. Is this guy talented?
If we fast forward a year and both have mastered the same skills, then what is the use of being talented? surely talent just makes you get to a certain stage more quickly, but is not an indication of potential...how potentially good you are...
could it be that you can have a guy that is not talented but has more potential and ends up going further than the "talented guy".....
Maybe it comes down to dedication and luck...
When i first started to box, people thought i had been boxing for 2 or 3 years but i had never boxed before...
that said, i couldn`t replicate this "talent" in sparring and my confidence went..
what makes a talented guy in your opinons?
any thoughts?
