Thread: what boxing type are u

this is one oldass post. haaa bumped from the land of b4...

I like to get in the clinch, and put my tongue in my opponents ear...and call em sweety. (respekfully of course)

I don't box, and I've never been a fighter, not since junior high. But in my dreams I fight real dirty. If I get em down I make sure they can't get back up.

5ft7. 200lbs. Facefirst catcher. I can easily be outjabbed if I'm not in shape, but for Christ's sake, don't get in close. I don't have much in the way of boxing skills, but my punching technique is brutal. Plus, I'm ambidextrous, which means either hand can and will put you on your ass.

I'm a Frankie Swindell-type. I was never going to have a great career, but you better do your homework.

I am like Terry Norris always on my toes, good balance and the jab, right cross left hook combination.

i never liked gettin hit. so when i started boxing the guy that owned the gym i went to taught me shoulder roll and it was very hard to learn to me anyways. but anyway i always loved PBFs style.

terrible. (haha)

i'm also just a guy who trains a lot*, (a lot: subject to own interpretation.)
i mix heavy bag workouts in with my weights and running. I'm 5' 11" and stay in between 215-220 lbs, and somewhere around 14-17% body fat (depends on if i'm controlling my diet or not, and if i'm staying consistent with everything).


my most comfortable stance is unorthodox, but i'm right handed. right hand hooks to the body and head are the most comfortable, natural thing I throw, so they're my favorite. But, i also like to switch feet and throw the classic "1-2's". i've got somewhat of a martial arts back ground, but i prefer boxing over everything else. Because of my size, my main focus is to remain light on my feet and stay a moving target. I lack fundamentals and excellent hand speed (have "good" hand speed), and need to learn precise footwork so I can train properly. I lack discipline in my left hand... for the most part, I lack having ever worked with a trainer.
