When you plan your schedule with your wife and kids around boxing and making sure they don't interfere with one another. Kinda like UFC knows not to go head to head against boxing ppv events.
...when you ask your friends what their weight is to see if they're in or around your weight-class.
...when you stop for a second while shaving in the bathroom to pose for your 'Tale of the Tape' profile pic.
...when you intend to go online to check your email and realize 10 minutes later that you were only on NSB the whole time.
When you have your parrents stream you fights from Puerto Rico TV thru skype into my phone!
When you make your wife buy you PPV of Cotto vs FMJr. and stream it to you from the TV, to her Phone, to my super crappy internet connection at 4AM in a hotel in Bahrain!
Talk about crapy links! lol! But well worth it!
When you get mad at someone for wanting to change the channel after they read the scorecards and announce the winner. NO, I GOTTA LISTEN TO THE DAMN POST FIGHT INTERVIEW, WOMAN!!!
When you miss family reunions, birthdays, graduation parties, wedding anniversaries, and your family is all like "you don't come see us anymore" "we miss you" "you should come around more" "are we strangers?" YEA WELL YOU GUYS SHOULD START ORDERING MORE FIGHTS!!!
Same stuff happens to me lol.
* When you zone out and play full fights in your head while your partner is talking to you.
* When NSB is the first and last thing you see everyday.
* When you randomly begin announcing your favourite fighters in your best Buffer impersonation…. " De la Zona Norte… Tijuana Mexico…"
* When you get tired of ***** commentating and whole heartedly believe you could do x 10 better.
* When you hush folks around you while you're streaming a fight in a foreign broadcast even though you have no idea what they are saying.
When you start using boxing terminology in every day life
I use the term "bum" or "tomato can" or "fraud" to describe someone whose sh1t at their job or just sh1t at performing a certain task. I've now popularised it in the Football Thread and in my group of friends.

When your going out of town and your looking for spots that air the fights.
Or when your watching Spanish telecasts of fights and don't even speak Spanish.
