    Don't take the fight. Another fight will come along. Anyone that knows anything about boxing wouldn't let you fight if you weren't ready. Boxing is not like a pick up game of basketball.

    “You can map out a fight plan or a life plan, but when the action starts, it may not go the way you planned, and you're down to your reflexes - that means your [preparation:]. That's where your roadwork shows. If you cheated on that in the dark of the morning, well, you're going to get found out now, under the bright lights.”

    sure, that's definitely what happened ;)

    In all seriousness, no offense, but you just seem like that kid who takes a month of boxing lessons or MMA lessons, then starts going around bragging about it and wearing Tapout shirts all the time.

    You're a natural swarmer, but can't throw combinations? LOL, good luck with that. I haven't even boxed before and even I know you can't just go in and try and be over-aggressive.

    Have fun getting knocked out.

    What did I brag about ? I mentioned my weakness most of the time , I didnt say that I was was going to win the tourney or something.

    All I said I am a swarmer and will go in for knockout. Did I say that I am going to knock out the opponent for sure ?

    Atleast I have the balls to step into the ring unlike you who is attacking others on online forum.I dont know what your problem is but I can assume those Mcdonalds burgers have rotten your brain.

    Unlike me? LOL, sorry, I just had knee surgery last week. And I have more balls than the majority of "athletes". I'd like to see you trying to play football with a completely torn ACL, MCL, and microfracture.

    People like you are the main reason why I got into this sport. I have had haters all around me like you who said I couldnt do things just because they couldnt.

    I am a full-time student who spends 8-10 hrs at university and I train whenever I get time. I know my limitations so there is no question of bragging.

    I dont have power , skills , endurance nor any experience. Only thing I have is my aggression which obviously wont help me against someone experienced. The only reason I have to go with my agressive instincts because I dont have any thing other to depend on. Thats the bottomline , if you think this is bragging then so be it.

    The reason why I want to partcipate in this competition because I already missed a lot competitions due to studeis and my exams. You maynot know this , there are few competitions in my country.

    You may have gone a lot through your life (knee surgery and all) but that doesnt give you the right to belitle a person whom you dont even know irl.

    Who said I was a hater or said you couldn't do anything? All I'm saying is that the over-aggressive attitude will get you knocked out. I don't know you, so I can't be for sure, but from your original post, you just sound like one of the kids I spoke of. Call me a hater if you will, but that's how your OP made you look in my eyes.

    Also, who said I couldn't box? Yes, I've had surgeries and I have arthritis, but I'm not gonna quit, I WILL box, I don't care if people don't think I can, even my surgeon.
