Very apt words in todays climate which Ive just seen on the boxing trainers Jamie Moore twitter account which I wish more would follow:
"If you walk into a boxing gym you'll see things like police officers mixing with ex-criminal ,the rich mixing with the poor,different races mixing with differing races,No bull**** just love.
I think the world would be a better place if it was more like a boxing gym."
Boxing brings the gutter to the noble and everyone is equal, there is a mutual grounding within boxing that makes it very special, the courage the skills the battles in its history we all connect too.
Yeah one of the best parts of boxing is that it’s world wide, brings in all sorts of people. If we try there’s something to relate to with anyone and that’s what we all really want.
