    Because as we've seen in real life, a gold-medal Olympic fencer is always the best at boxing as soon as they drop their sword put the gloves on. No need to practice, or anything!

    I think the analogy is more apt when comparing a fencer trying to box with their foil. If the gold medal fencer is also an olympian boxer due to years of training (FFXIV equivalent of levelling-up), then yes, it is entirely feasible that by dropping a foil and picking up boxing gloves they will be quite formidable at boxing.
