Lost first boxing match

You'll fight at different locations like bars or outside a bar. Well thats how its here anyway or you'll fight in gyms. Mostly there pack houses.

a loss in your first right means nothing. Absolutely nothing. Chris Eubank, the guy in my avatar, was stopped 20 seconds into his first amateur fight, and he was undefeated in the pros for more than 40 fights.

I lost my first two fights. Both KO's in the first round.

I simply lost my nerve and shut up shop.

I'm 5-2 now. I did ALOT more sparring and one day my confidence just clicked.

I won my next 5 fights, 3 of them by KO.

I lost my first match weighed in at 138 and they made me fight at 145. My first match was just after my first two spars with someone new to the game like me. I let my nerves get to me and I was kinda shakey and already tired in just the first round. I got dropped in the first round of the match, but got back up then the ref stopped it in the 3rd round after I gased out and kept holding. I usually don't get tired fast but I let my nerves get to me at the begining and that basically was worn me out mentally.


I fought someone right handed and they kept catching me with powerful right jabs. My defense really isn't that good. I mean they were hard and I'm Southpaw. Everyone said I could have drop dude threes times after I hit him with three killa left hands, but backed off everytime.

I feel humilitated and down after that performace tonight and I'm now thinking twice about boxing.

Taking it a face value it would appear that you have not been trained properly. It takes many months of hard training before you can be ready for your first fight.

I just lost my 2nd amatuer fight Sunday. It was a war, great fight. I got pipped on the decison. Scores were 32-29, 33-29, 60-24 (dunno what fight he was watching) Got my nose smashed by a left uppercut 10secs into the 3rd round, there was blood all over him & me - it was great, lol. The ref. stopped the fight 2x in the last rnd, i was pleading with not to stop it. Got my 3rd fight in 3 weeks. Im happy with my progress considering im a jiu-jitsu guy, i box 2x p/wk, taking on guys that box 5-6 days a week. I love boxing.

Its not how many fall down that matters but it is how many time you could stand up the matter more

[Aaron K]

Good job for stepping in the ring. Dont worry about it its the amatures hell even great pro's lose in the amatures because its a learning experience. Just hit the gym train hard get more prepared be confident and you'll do fine

I just don't like the fact how I was embrassed plus my dad was there to support me and I lost.

u stepped thru the ropes, that can never be embarassing. dont give up man, everybody is allowed to lose on. train harder, learn from ur mistakes, and fight on no matter wut stands in ur way u can only get better. dont give up so easily u'll regret it.
