By Frank Lotierzo - GlovedFist@Juno.com - Lets say you're Joe nobody. All your life you've been a huge boxing fan. Throughout your whole life you have ate, drank, and slept amateur and professional boxing. You've studied its history, you have great insight, and are very well versed and read on its day to day goings on. Lets go one step further and assume that you even boxed in your younger years and were even pretty good. However, you realized that you were not quite good enough to ever become world champ or fight for a title, thus ending your career.
After you accept that your dream most likely won't be realized, you stop fighting and follow boxing religiously. Through your years of obsessing over the sport, you end up having better insight and knowledge than most, and want to apply it. Sounds like a great thought, but forget about doing it yourself. Although you may have all the knowledge in the world, unless you are one of the good ole boys, or are well connected, forget about it. [details]
