Klitschko quote? Relevant?

"What's the difference between chess and boxing? In chess nobody is an expert, but everyone plays. In boxing everybody is an expert, but nobody fights."

Just thinking about this quote by Vitali Klitschko, what is it with us boxing fans? Why are we like this? Can't figure it out myself. BTW this is by far my favourite quote about boxing, would like to know if people agree with it. Thanks

    that's a good quote and very true , we all think we know how to beat wladimir or canelo but in reality most of us haven't got a clue about how to be a great boxer yet we like to give advice myself included .

    definitely a very clever quote that I totally agree with, its an accurate portrayal of the boxing landscape for the better part of the last 20 years. This guy doesnt wanna fight that guy because of A,B,C, and D, a system of multiple belts with unexplainable ranking, fighters constantly giving up belts and ultimately having some nobody fight for it or be gifted it.
