Yeah you can improve yourself without a gym but ideally you want a proper boxing gym where you can get sparring & get a feel for it and the angles punches come from.

I wouldn't recommend Street fighting or anything but yes its effective, the single most effective form of combat sports you can do.


Get your fitness levels right up and get to a local boxing gym.

You may learn how to fight by training on your own but in terms of boxing, you will only develop bad habits. I trained on my own for years and once I started with a professional coach, I learned more in a month than in 5 years of self-teaching. You absolutely need someone there to critique your form and have people to spar with.

Yes just don't go getting into bad habits

The thing is, you wont know if youre getting bad habits. You need a coach to see those things and tell you how you're doing.
