Boxing

During 2022, I became an amateur boxer and had two fights. When I fought for the first time, I fought like a veteran and I could have won, but I didn't train much on my cardio. Despite winning my second fight, my team and I were cheated, but I don't mind since I fought with women who were more experienced than me and I kept up with them. All it takes is one good hit and you could lose your career and whole life. So now Im getting back to working out to stay in shape. I realized boxing isn't my path. It was fun while it lasted but it is a very brutal and mental sport. I could have been international but I turned it down to focus more on my career now. Boxing will only take you so far in life. Overall, it is the best sport out there and you learn to love it.
