Style: likes to jab and box but I'm effective when agressive
Weaknesses: Underestimates opponents and I'm very tense when fighting.
Record: Street boxing 4-1-(0KO's)
Amateur 0-0-0
I'm gonna start going to a boxing gym after high school.
Those are going to hurt you even at the amateur level. You should never take your opponent for granted, remember boxing is a hurt sport and as much as you want to hurt him he wants to hurt you even more.
Being tense isnt good either, that is just asking to get your bell rung.....
That will probably all be shaken off when you go into a boxing gym and start sparring with bigger guys and are comfortable in a ring though.

Good luck
thanks man. I always try to be calm when fighting but its not that easy. That's my main problem right now because I get tired easily when I'm tense.

I had the jitters bad but trust me when you actually get some good sparring in and are comfortable with a ring then it will be shaken off and you will really start to bloom into a fighter.
When another man is coming at you to hurt you it takes a lot to stay calm...
But you will develop that in the gym, that is just part of being an amateur.

Curious why you give up in the third? If the 1st round was even and you dropped him in the 2nd...What happened did you injure yourself?
