I just turned 26 and have been watching boxing for nearly two decades now. I used to go over to my uncles house who lived down the street at a very young age and watch/learn about the sweet science. My dad and uncle were huge fight fans and when they grew up they were best friends with a heavyweight contender named Boone Kirkman. Kirkman was semi successful fighting the likes of George Foreman, Jimmy Ellis...they worshiped Boone and still talk about him to this day, they always argue that Boone would have kicked ass in this era but after reviewing a lot of Boone tapes I have to diagree. So my dad and my uncle got me into this sport a long time ago and I fell in love with it, the very first fight I ever scored was Greg Haugen vs. Vinny Pazienza 1, I am from Seattle so Haugen was a big deal back when I was a little ****.
Anyways I would love to hear how all of you got to be so passionate about this sport, there is nothing I would rather do than watch a good prize fight!
