I think NASCAR drivers or formula one drivers are way tougher than boxers because they race almost every week. A boxer fights like what, once every 6 months? They train as much as race car drivers, so why are boxers even considered athletes?
No way, boxers go through months of training for one fight, boxing is the sport that needs the most endurance, not to mention the beatings they get. Also boxers cant do the nasty while training, now thats tough!

Tougher no, but I would put the stamina of a NASCAR driver up against ANY boxer! Today's racer has an incredible cardio workout program!

Tougher no but they have to have the endurance to sit in a car with all that pressure for hours.

Carl Edwards may be. But, driving doesn't require enormous amounts of strength. It requires endurance.

I have two words. Tony Stewart.
HAHA; just kidding - he may not be the best rep. I think they are the same level of athletes in different areas. Rainbow
Boy (a.k.a. Jeff Gordon) couldn't stand to get punched once, let alone multiple rounds, but then again who said George Foreman (only name I could come up with) can see straight enough to drive in a straight line let alone a bunch of left (you'd have to explain left from right) turns!
Ok I'm sarcastic - but you get the point.

Boxers work out almost every day. Tony Stewart is living proof how hard a race driver works out. Carl Edwards might be an exception, but pound for pound most boxers are way tougher than race drivers.
