Name the professional athletes you respect the most and why.
Hi, me I guess it would have to be boxing a lot, yup, Mike Tyson, for one, especially in his prime, perfect ko machine. Roy Jones Jr. who is quite remarkable, he never put anything unhealthy into his system, very healthy super strong and quick, was robbed in Korea for his gold apparently, and as a pro for a while he went unbeaten for several fights consecutively not losing a single round I was told, those fights at lightheavyweight were awesome, then, he went up in weight to heavyweight and fought Ruiz and WON that fight, remarkable. And there’s Tito Trinidad, who fought with the heart of a lion, beating Vargas, De la Hoya, and many others, explosive strength, great to watch. And of course my man Bernard Hopkins, who beat Trinidad at his own game, I like Hopkins because he has great stuff to say, doesn’t mess around, he was untouchable for ten years at 160 lbs, his background is Philly street jail scene, truly made it from the bottom up.
Thanks and have a great one!😃
