The ones with a controversial rep do this best because a lot of people tune in to watch them get knocked out lol.
Anthony Mundine was a big mouthed Rugby League player who started out boxing that way, his father was a very well respected boxer here in Australia. Anthony went on to win 3 world titles.
Wow, hadn't heard Mundine mentioned in a while. Despite his controversial nature, he is definitely one of the best crossover athletes I've seen. I remember that ridiculous Danny Green fight with the non-disqualification in the first followed by the bs scorecards after the bout.
