Has anyone boxed before?

Nice Avatar :good

 

boxing in the amateurs now 2 fights won 1 lost 1

 

I boxed amateur for 12 years did ok won a couple of national titles.Boxed internationals .Not in any major international championships though.

 

I trained and sparred. I still keep in shape for an eventual career when I finish grad school.

 

Like who?:think

 

I used to box in the am's, won a few, lost a few. Nothing to write home about.

 

i used to box in backyards,, but it was seroius ****, we train for the fights. i lived in a small town and i went 5-0 5kos has a HW. good times. then it kinda stopped. everybody wanted to fight until it was time. lol. 1oo people around cheering u on. Last 2 month i have been working out hard. weight 244 now at 228ish and wanta get 220 jacked and going to join a boxing gym in Guelph, ontario canada. any tips out there. email me dudes

 

Yes I train 5 times a week and have lots of wins..............mostly over my little sister....she has no attack and crap defence and I out weigh her by 50kgs....does that count?

 

I won the Florida PAL 147lbs Championship in 2001.

 

I boxed in high school with the Army and a german gym as a 6'2" 125-pounder. Combine that body type with bad knees and you can see why I ended up as a middling wrestler in college, rather than a terrible boxer. :boxer

 

Jeff Thomas
Willie Limond
Tyrone Nurse
Curtis Woodhouse
I think Bradley Pryce does aswell - newbridgeboxing??

probably few others

 

:roll:

+ Jamie Moore, Tony Dodson. Probably a few more aswell.

On topic, no. I'm only 16 though, I hope to get started pretty soon.

Expect a lot of bull**** answers, most people on ESB have boxed amateur and have a 120-0 record with 110 KO's, but didn't go pro. They can also bench 900lbs and impregnate women from 30 feet away.

 

I once walked in to a gym and had a look around. Chatted to the trainers and stuff and to be perfectly honest I realised I didn't have the balls to do it. I love the sport and have complete respect for anyone who is prepared to give it a go.

 

Yeah boxed throo my early twenties but chose to play Rugby at a good level ...then came back in my thirties and last fight a victory in October 2007 in front of a celeb crowd ..lol - well Tommy Morrison , Joe Egan (great bloke and built like a battleship) and think it was tony tucker .... loved every minute of it and still hit the bags when i can ... only lost a handfull of times too so guess wasnt too bad !
