    I am starting to doubt my boxing...

    Just wanna say that its been I think a year since I posted so its been a while.

    So to get to the point, I got in to a phyiscal altercation with a guy bigger than me. So I hit him with a jab and he said "lol wtf was that BS" and he started circling around and anytime I would step to get close he would push me back.

    I kept trying to close the distance but he kept circling around while keeping his distance while having two hands extended forward do I woulden't get close. In the end a bystander threatend to call the cops and we both left.

    This was few months ago but me hitting him with a jab and he shaking it off really has made me lose faith in myself.

    I don't know, ever since I been back in boxing I haven't been the same and am losing confident in my own skills.

    Oh and I know fighting outside is wrong and I deeply regret it and I am deeply ashamed for being partly blamed for the incident.

              How many times have I seen people make very little of what's being done to them in a physical altercation, only to still get fucked up

                a jab isn't suppose to knock out dudes unless your deontay wilder. Jabs are just to set up your power shots. Sounds to me the guy was scared to throw any punches.

                    It's not your boxing that should be put into question. It is your actual philosophy towards fighting. That same jab would have got you a point in the Olympics.

                    But learning how to throw some kicks to legs, some groin shots, hair pulling, ground fighting will do wonders to restore your confidence!
