I ask again brocktonblockbuster.

Brocktonblockbuster vs Charlie Zelenoff, now that's the fight I wanna see.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
I went to Starbucks here in Korea, but all they had was plastic spoons. So I went ahead and did a little of the xercise, but the plastic cracked or maybe chipped a bit in the left nostril, and drew some blood. Plus the CCTV was on and I felt like an idiot.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
You stuck a plastic spoon up your nose and got a nosebleed? Is this what you call training for your big fight? Get away from that coffee man and get down to the local gym. You will need more than plastic spoons to beat these hordes of non-punching WW's.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
I stuck it partially up, not all the way, but it says on Yahoo that capillaries are right there as soon as you enter the nose, you don't have to go all the way up in order to get a nose bleed.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
I always found that the best way to avoid nose bleeds was not to get hit... Either through defence or, hopefully in your case - avoiding a competative fight agaonst a younger, faster, better boxer all together.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
nose bleeds or mucous runs I can take, but a broken nose would not be desireable.

This a serious question? Ha! I used to box but i liked to slug it out so i got a fair few nose bleeds but after a while your nose just gets used to it and it toughens up.
Re: Can a 47 year old become a competitive boxer?
And as for sticking spoons up your nose... Stop it, you'll just damage something pointlessly.
No point hurting your nose for something you'll never do. From your posts it seems like you think you can give it... But you're not happy to mix it up and take it... Too many excuses/worries about 'getting hit on the nose' and only wanting to fight guys you think are weak.
I'd be amazed if you ever fought, not just because nobody will card you... But because I don't think you have the guts.

This guy is brilliant. Fact.
He is isnt he ;D
Study Iron palm training videos but just do it with your nose instead of your hand.
Dont forget to come up out of the heated medicine bucket for air though.

If the guy was for real he wouldn't be pussying about with his nose. If you're for real then get the fuck on with it... Too much TALK about how weak these guys are... Do something.
Trust me, we'll never see this promised video... Love him to prove me wrong, but he won't.

I agree with you.

Well, too much time spent in Korea can eventually turn even the sanest man somewhat weird. Sticking plastic forks up your nose in Starbucks sounds about par for course for a jaded expat. It can become very much like Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness' or 'Apocalypse Now' for those who don't read books. Brocktonblockbust sounds like he has spent too long in the wilderness and is having one of those mid life crisis things.
And good on him too as there is nothing finer than a man railing against finite existence and wanting to prove it isn't so by beating down on the local population.

Man, I said hit it on the bridge of your nose, you know like the exterior. Not shove it up there! Man, you're making me doubt you now Triple B. If you can't deal with simple conditioning instructions, how are you going to cope with listening to what your cornerman is telling you?
