    However the point of the thread isn't just to tell me where im fighting.


    to all my fellow amateur boxers tell me how the year of 2014 has gone for your boxing career, your advancements, your fails, strange occurrences, where your going in the next year(or intend to go)

    I had my first bout in 2014, lost a close decision. Fought two weeks later another close fight but I got the edge. Got a rematch with my first opponent and my shoulder was dislocated 30 seconds into the first round. I couldn't move my arm I just defense until the round was over. Dr stopped the fight and the painstarted when I got back to the dressing room waiting to get it popped back in. Ended up having to get it done in the hospital. 2 months later I returned to sparring and sure enough it happened again. Its been dislocated 4 times now since may. I need surgery before I box again so I'll be out next year. Definitely added fuel to the fire and it will be the best day of my life when I can fight again. I plan on dedicating 1 year to amateur fights and go pro 2016 or 2017.

    only fought two time this year, lost in the cali gg finals, then all my opponents pulled out the rest of the year, getting 5-10 more amateur fights then going pro

    Did pretty good, had a couple amateur bouts this year, from july onwards (7-2), was lucky and didnt have any opponents pull out ( at the time i wanted them too cause i was abit nervous), even had the privilege to fight twice in 5 days! haha. great year, i plan to stay as an amateur for around 2-5 more years, getting as many fights as i can.

    Bullsh## year.
    Had fights lined up every month and only fought 3 times. Lost twice (one of which was the nationals). Was sick most of the time.

    This year, gonna give it my all, aiming for another GG gold, then qualify for nationals again - and possibly retire from competition for good.
