    How long have you been a boxing fan?

    I got into boxing in November 2005. I was watching ESPN classics and saw this dude destroying everyone in a boxing ring. It was "Iron" Mike Tyson of the 80's that got me hooked. Now Im a boxing crackhead and badly addicted to the sport. I have tons of favorite current and past fighters. I got a bad boxing addiction, and loving every minuet of it!


    Thanks "Iron" Mike for bringing me in.


    So how long have yall been fans? And what got you into boxing?

      I've always been a minor boxing fan because my father brought me up watching it, but I'd say I've been a religious boxing fan for about 4 years or so.

        Boxing is an addiction, I've been a fanatic nearly two years.

            corny as it sounds. but back in the nintendo days.. I saw Mike Tysons Punch out in the window at the store and just badly wanted it. it was my 1st video game.. I think I was 5 or 6.. anyways ever since then I got slowly more and more into boxing... that and my dad was a fighter, as am I.

            when I got into boxing it was the time when tyson was the man.

                I was about 13, I had watched a few fights of Tyson and so on but hadent really gotten to much into it. Then I went to visit my aunt in california for a few weeks. I was watching television on a saturday evening and Kcal Chanel 9 had a free boxing card. Happend to be Mab fighting on network tv,I watched the first Undercard bout and it was a really good scrap. The main event was Mab and he gave a good ass wupping stopping a guy with body punches. It got me hooked, The next day I went to the Library that was a block away. I started reading all the old ring magazines they had. That was about 12 years ago, Ive been hooked ever since.
