Grievsey same here my last year an dthey bring it in RP i disagree boxing is a mental sport aswell. The kids who are good at sport, more gifted athletes will be pretty good at it. But unlike other sports you dont have to be the fastest runner etc... You can use your menbtal strength. Theres a difference between a fighter and a boxer So the athletic kids will do good but also some of the less athletic kids will be good at it too. The ones whop arnt so good will be the ones who arnt so as athletically gifted and in all honesty probably suck at all the sports so why would they care about boxing as chances are they aint intrested in any sport just stating facts. As im not the best athlete but i like to think im a decent boxer
just stating facts. As im not the best athlete but i like to think im a decent boxer[/quote] pride before a fall young man but seriously i have been hearing this for two years now and not happened in my raea in any depth
its a good thing, people learn respect at boxing and thats what these kids are lacking respect and discipline, thats why imo the old age had more respect cause they all boxed against each other in the school boys etc and dont need to show whos tough because everyone knows who is.
theres a trainer down sandygate ABC in burnley who goes to different schools to introduce young lads to training and such,the club gets paid for this as well,then if they get the bug they come and train at the club. good news for most i think,instills discipline into most,but arragance into the knobrot pretend hardnuts though i suppose
like everything this depends on the quality of the teachers/trainers, you can't learn what you're not tought and for this to work fully, high level teachers/trainers with the right mentality and message to the kids are needed throughout
