Im trying though. It might seem like im not but i am.
Anyways. Keep working hard, both in school and in your training. Good luck to you. **** will work out if you keep trying.

Looks like you have the potential to have pretty quick hands those. You have some promise I bet, but you need to find a job and then a gym. Until then just work on your jab and cross until you master those. Then the uppercut. Don't even try the hook yet.
Yea your right. Im surprised you noticed.. That's what happens when you watch DVD of your favorite fighters.. But isn't that what everyone wants to do? lol But yea i see where your coming from. My natural style i haven't found it yet.. I don't know.. Ima see.. I like Cotto's style at most... De La Hoyas also.. And Trinidads... I like the was Cotto excutes his punches tho.. I try to fight like him. I'll find my own style..Mixed with all them ****s lol. Trying to be like Mayweather is a no no.. It's impossible lol. I know it's not good to try and be like another fighter but you know.. What else is to do when you watch them and like there style?

Yeah I totally understand. I think once you are able to afford some training at a gym you will start to really begin to form your own identity as a fighter, but for now I'd stick to practicing your movement and jabbing and crossing. do your best to find your own way of doing it, that's most comfortable and efficient for you, not what looks good when other guys do it.
Lots and lots of roadwork too. Run sideways, in reverse, mix it up. Sprinting too. Don't forget interval training. You need to really strengthen your legs. Make that priority # 1. Once the legs go in a fight, you are a sitting duck for a fighter who's in better shape.
You may not have a gym but you can still go out and do physical conditioning. Running, pullups, pushups, ab routines. When you do get to that gym, you want to be in A-1 shape so you can hit the ground running so to speak and start building skills right away, without worrying to much about your condition.

I wouldn't recommend shadow boxing and trying to implement all of this ****. You are going to learn bad technique wether you think so or not and it will be very tough to get rid of. At least get a damn heavybag and work on that.
Why don't you just get a job at mcdonalds?

But honestly man, don't start out on the top as of now. Get a job at a fast food place or Home Depot or something, work when you're able to, and watch your spending habits.

You look good, nice handspeed and balance. Your muscles are very relaxed when you punch and it makes your combinations flow well. Look around harder for an affordable gym. A lot of boxing gyms are non profit and are very cheap. In fact most boxing gyms are non profit. That doesn't mean they won't charge you anything, but it will be very little.
