Boxing names

I wouldnt focus on that right now, just stay focused on your kids training and learning the sport the nick names can wait til the pros anyways the amateurs dont allow you to use a nick name.

 

I was gonna say, you can't use a nickname in the ams anyway.

 

normally newspapers in the old days

 

U earn nicknames.. u get them usually in the gym .. people in the gym call me gatti.. at a fight some stranger called me rambo.. they come as u move along

 

Sure you can. They won't always use your nickname when the announcer says your name for a fight (though I've seen it done plenty of times), but tons of amateurs have nicknames.

 

I have seen heaps of ams with nicknames aswell. The announcer sometimes calls it out. Nicknames are usually earnt in the gym. Your coach or gym mates or someone else will usually give you a nick name, but not always. If you wasnt to call yourself something go for it.

 

You can use nicknames in the amateurs.

 

Which you're not allowed to be announced as.

 

it is against the rules!!!!! has it happend? Probably there are alot of LBC's that do not Follow the rules as they should.

 

Maybe some places; but hell, even LBC 31, which has been in trouble for some rule violations before, doesn't have that going on. It's just not something that's done in the amateurs. But then again, what do we know....we're only actively involved in USA Boxing.

 

you usually get them in the gym

 

lucky you

you cant really use 'good looking' as a nick name can ya?

 

Exactly I mean we couldnt possibly have an idea what we are talking about:roll:
