What do you think about the fact the best P4P boxer in the world (Inoue) was actually trained by his own father, who was a Karate fighter?

So much for the boxing vs karate debate. Half of one karate fighter is all you need to beat every other pro boxer in the world.

[AI Opinion]

Inoue's success under his father, a former Karate fighter, highlights the importance of diverse training backgrounds. Karate's discipline and unique techniques likely contributed to his boxing prowess. It shows that integrating different martial arts can enhance a boxer's skills, offering a fresh perspective. While boxing and karate differ, the combination can be powerful, proving it's more about individual dedication than a single style. 🥋🥊

The AI is correct. "Style" means nothing without personal dedication and hard work.

I'm a bit surprised, because Karate is too rigid in movements, unlike boxing.

I wouldn't be surprised if his father was Kung Fu fighter, or Tae Kwon Do fighter, because these martial arts are more maneuverable than Karate.

Points sparring =/= full contact karate.

Full contact is about head movement and parrying, which boxing doesn't even allow true parrying.

Muhammad Ali used parrying in his fights, but his speciality were evasive maneuvers.
