Undisputed HW champ. Belt from every organization. That's all you. No teammates helping there. Just hard work and good coaching. But in the end, it's all on you.

Olympic gold medalist. I just think it's something special to be representing your country and being the best in the world in the sport you competed in. I'm talking about an athletic, physical competition, not that walking sport bullshit the women do.

For fame and money? Heavyweight Boxing Champion sounds nice even though the current heavyweight division sucks balls. I'm only 5'10" and 180 lbs so I'd settle for super middle weight champ. ;)

a lot of olympic champion boxers didn't win a world title in boxing

heck holyfield won the bronze and is a 3 time world champion, the guy that beat roy jones jr didn't have much of a pro career that i know of

the belt is bigger than a gold medal

I forgot to add the Heisman.



Superbowl if I was a big part like MVP would be cool.
Olympics if it was a cool gold medal like sprinting.imagine being called the fastest guy in the world.
Heavyweight champ would be awesome!

I like this answer. 

It's an incredible accomplishment.  Unlike the professional team sports, there is no "there's always next year".  A lot of thsese athletes have trained non stop from their early teens for this opportunity, and many times, they get one shot at it.   To reach the pinnacle under these circumstances is unbelievable.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I agree with you.
