    I boxed as a teen, just long enough to figure out that I'd rather watch and talk about it.

    i'm a pro...
    i'm a bit ashamed though cause most of my fans are blind as ****, and only follow my career...which is a clear disrespect to other fans that have been watching boxing for decades....my fans are so ******ed that i feel like retiring and running for president of my country....dont get me wrong, i mean i'm great and all but i can do without my fans......i am

    I use to go to the boxing gym and work out. Sparred a few times, but that was about it.

    first went to the gym when i was 8 but it closed down,then i boxed with kids in the hood throughout my childhood.Finally got back to a gym when i was 15 but that fizzed.Then started again at 20 and had 4 fights did good,but partied too much,as adult just off and on trained.

    wore gloves since I was a kid, but never really went in to amateurs/pro. I just boxed with friends, as workout and for fun. Basic boxing actually..

    I don't have any lack of respect for a fan who does not box or workout in a gym though. Anyone who thinks about boxing enough to consistently interact with people on the subject is aces in my book. Being involved with boxing just makes it more of a no-brainer. Loving this game without direct involvement is highly commendable to me, and shows true dedication. I never dog a fan who doesn't box. Never will.

    Boxed for about 2 years as a kid. I do martial arts training now though which is quite similar.
