This article talks all about the song's history but there is nothing about what the song IS. I do not know what the song is about, so I can't add this. -[[User:Rolypolyman|Rolypolyman]] 03:43, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Personally, I don't like the way that Bob Dylan is portrayed in this article. I think specific words make it sound like Dylan is overly egotystical. I agree with the information that there were theories that claimed that "The Boxer" was about Bob Dylan, and I know that Dylan recorded it on his "Self Portrait" album, but I am almost certian that Dylan never specified why he covered the song.
I think a simple change og wording could easily fix the problem.
Thank you.

What this song is about

This article talks all about the song's history but there is nothing about what the song IS. I do not know what the song is about, so I can't add this. -Rolypolyman 03:43, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
