Boxers who did more than just boxing to become the greatest 

Whenever there is a discussion about the greatest boxers of all time, Mike Tyson always makes it to the list. People know him as ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, but he put in a lot of work to become the best. 

Tyson used to get up at 4 a.m. for a jog and then partake in sparring. He then engaged in a full-body workout on the exercise bike, including 2000 sit-ups. As a result, he had a strong core and powerful legs that could crush his adversaries.

Muhammad Ali is known as ‘The Greatest’ for a reason. Even today, no boxer could match the pace of Ali’s footwork since he worked so hard to develop the fastest technique. Ali used to focus more on his diet and calisthenics while other heavyweight boxers bulked up for a powerful body. Ali was one of the few people with inherent talent, but when that talent was merged with his diligence, he was unstoppable.

Punches are only one aspect of boxing; it calls for much more. Due to his intelligence, Floyd Mayweather can be considered the brightest boxer of all time. Mayweather took extra time to be defensive and waited for the appropriate opportunity to land a precise blow, while other boxers wanted to pound their opponents with hard jabs. When his opponents were worn out, Mayweather unleashed the beast within him. This made him one of the finest boxers of all time.
