    When i became a boxing fan?

    When the doctor took me out of my mother and said:

    It's a boy!

    lol

    Im saying this because a i don't see a reason. Boxing is never being broadcasted at Brazilian TV.

    That's why i love internet

      when my grandpa told me he boxed as a kid and showed me some basic punches/footwork, i started to like it and practised at home for ages on heavybag before going to a gym, unfortunately the trainer there was crap and taught me nothing, then i got with a good trainer and started doing well

      no particular fighter really got me in to boxing

              Hahaha, my reason actually has nothing to do with real boxers. I became a fan when I picked up a manga called Hajime no Ippo and saw a character named Takeshi Sendo. Which lead to me watching fights of a man named Rocky Marciano. Which had me stumble upon a man named Sugar Ray Leonard. Thus I became a fan.

              I always knew what boxing was but was never a fan until the events that I mentioned above.

                  Born into it really. I remember watching Chavez as a wee toddler. But in the mid earlier 90's I really started to love it, Taylor-Chavez was one of the first fights I remember. But I never got to truly appreciate Chavez till I was a bit older.
