    Why did you begin training ?

    Hello
    This might be a long post, It will be a interesting post though, I wanted to ask you all why did you begin boxing training?.
    My story is complex rather, I used to go to college, I had so called friends who took advantage of my kindness, I was young 14 or so, I suffer with a learning disability, it takes me longer to learn things and understand, I think they knew this, My Ipod was stolen from the so called friend. The story is he asked to borrow it, I gave it to him to borrow, He never returned it, I knew it was him, I was scared did not do anything, I had no self confidence, I was overweight scared and alone, I had no friends, I was in a really bad place, I had my phone stolen, I was doing a mechanics course, I was taking my jacket off to my overall on, I do not remember exact but that was the moment my phone was stolen. I was talking to the so called friends, I noticed his phone had the same songs my phone had, I told him they are the exact same song, The look on his face, I knew it was him,I did nothing again. This was all in the same year.

    My mum was driving her car one day, This person hit the side of her car, I got angry, I swore which I should not have done,it was my mistake, The area was a bad area, The person had lots of backup, They all ganged up on our car, I was so scared, my mum protected us, I told myself why is it when confrontation arises, I get scared. I found a boxing gym couple of years later, I am telling you boxing has given so much self belief and it has me taught me about life.

    I believe all those situations I was in has given me experience. I am sorry if its a long story, The reason I started boxing was because people have always thought I was nothing and could amount to nothing, the boxing has given me confidence and self belief, I do not ever want to be in a situation where I get scared and hide, I want to defend myself and my family.

    So i wouldn't get my asked kicked when I go outside. So far I'm 4-0 in the streets and haven't had to fight in like a year and a half. I'm a nice guy it's just a tough neighborhood. I don't get picked on anymore.

        Yeah, idk why people say boxing is impractical for a street fight...the fights i ever have been in/saw the other guy only used fists. People have it built up in their heads that street fights look like something in a jean claude van damme or bruce lee movie.

          Because boxing and MA are my passion. It's what God made me truly good at. You should pursue areas in which you have an aptitude or proficiency. It's there for a reason.

          Besides, a man should know how to fight
