If you ever get the attitude that you’re better than the other guy because you’re faster, you have a better jab, or because you use angles, then you won’t be better for long.
I have a number of skilled and hard working sparring partners. Their skills, weapons, styles and attributes are constantly changing. If I slack off, inferior boxers catch up to me. If I miss training, I lose my ability to hang with better boxers.
The only way to stay a better boxer than Jimmy is to continually work harder than Jimmy.
