I love boxing as well. And to be honest, I get pretty darn spooky before a fight. Trainer Monkey's going to start working on teaching me to put it to better use in the ring by getting mad about being scared and then putting it to good use in the ring.....not blind, drooling, not thinking clearly mad, mind you. That's not very useful at all. But there's that level of anger that makes you target better, fight smarter, and be able to take more punishment if needed. That's what I need. I let myself get too worked up and then my muscles are so darn tight I can't slip and roll the punches properly. It's funny how I can do everything right in sparring and then when an actual fight comes along, I let the spooky inhibit me more than help.
Sorry, there I go rambling again. Just give boxing a try. It's better to try it and know whether or not it works for you than to sit around wondering if it was something that you could have excelled at.
