Do you have bad dreams about any fights/fighters? Or recurring boxing dreams of any other kind?

    I have. Lately, I've gotten more in to Tennis than Boxing so have had dreams about my favorite players having imaginary matches. To me , when your hobby seeps into your subconscious, it is a sign to pull back a bit and focus more on real life.

    Never had a reoccurring dream, boxing related or otherwise. Sounds terrifying.

    But i have had sime boxing dreams.

    In one i randomly met mike tyson on my front porch. He gave me some advice on body shots then said we should spar out of the blue. My dad was the ref. He held back but it was still as crazy and painful as you'd expect.

    Another dream i was in a suit at a fancy dinner and spotted rocky marciano. He was having a good time and laughing about something. Didn't get to talk to him but I could feel his intensity from across the room. I don't even remember what the rest of the dream was about.

    Oh and the most bizarre by far was 2 days before my brother was going to have his first amateur fight. Had a dream he was sparring with Luis Ortiz as preparation. Made no freaking sense since he was 16 years old and a light heavyweight at the time.

    I have this recurring nightmare where Rocky uses a mere 290lb bag.

    Not in terms of any REAL life boxers. But Ivan Drago’s destruction of Apollo Creed traumatized me for years when I was a kid.

    I did actually. When Holyfield was going to fight Tyson I had a dream that they were fighting, and Tyson was hitting Holyfield in the head, vicious combinations, and the sound they made was absolutely disturbing. I felt uneasy for days!

    I had a dream today where Vicente rondon fought a 12 rd fight against Roy jones jr and actually won against Roy but it was a robbery cus literally rondon was getting beaten for the last 5-6 rounds and doing just enough to survive literally.

    I actually had a dream last night that I had gone back in time to be a spectator with ringside seats at the Thrilla, and had taken an old girlfriend (who happens to be a filipina) with me as a date.

    My first boxing dream. No idea why it featured a lady from my distant past.

    I had a dream that I was in the ring and this much smaller man was beating the crap out of me, and I kept getting hit no matter what I tried. Even falling to the canvas did no good because he was right there waiting and snarling at me. Then I'd get up and he'd beat on me some more.






    Then I realized I was Jess Willard in 1919.
