  • its times like this, that MAKE a boxer

    ok check this

    i am 0-2, had my first fight aug 08, 2nd fight march 09.
    i debating basiclly quitting after my 2nd loss, and decided to keep going.
    i love the sport, and realized after may im in it for the compeition and to put on a show not really just for the win...

    i been battling a serious flu, re injured my broken rib, and have a sinus infection my ears been plugged for 5 days and ringing constantly...

    all these things would be enough to make a boxer take some time off. but i have a fight lined up mid july that i cant afford to miss. and i decided to continue training for it and doing all i can...

    then yesterday i was informed by my trainer another fight is lined up for me one week before my july fight. i havent 100% agreed to it yet, but im thinking its time like this, that make a boxer a boxer...

    one side of me wants to say no and play it safe and just fight one fight
    the other side of me says im a warrior, lets do this, ill go in there and test both guys out see wut they got

    but in reality theres always the risk of injury in a fight. so i could get injured and miss the 2nd fight...

    any advice / feedback would be appreciated, as my decisions still 60-40

    Other people are supposed to commend you and give you credit, you don't commend yourself.

      dont risk it, play it safe, boxers recently have been playing it safe and they've got less wrong with them and if you got injured in the first fight the second one isnt going to happen. plus you havn't won yet so i doubt you would feeling like crap

        take it mate, you will learn from it and improve yourself more from it. this is only amateurs so don't worry about your record.

        he who doesn't take risks in life will accomplish nothing, as someone once said lol

            Take both fights, if you get injured in the first one, don't fight the second..

            seems obvious enough.

                  i would stick with one fight. u are already struggling to get prepared to fight once, and u have a losing record. no need to rush, just take your time. once u get some momentum and start winning fights u can start fighting more often and taking fights on short notice etc.
