Anyway thats my only problem w/ me boxing i odnt feel super egotistacal but a man should have an ego

Girls always wanna be shown how to box and LOVE to watch you spar or fight so thats the best thing by far! lol
I have yet to meet a girl who was willing to watch me spar or fight. You are a lucky man.

But girls do love to learn how to box... and I'm not gonna lie, it's my number one ice breaker. Take them to the gym, or to my house, start showing her some technique, get her hitting the bag some, manually correct her form etc.... before i know alls she's wearing is gloves.

I also experience this problem of being accused of being egotistical and self centered. I think having some sort of ego is essential as well. You MUST be confident to get in the ring... who gets in the ring while thinking, "I don't have a shot, I'm just here to get my ass kicked"... especially in the amateurs where we don't get paid.

And self-centered... come on... I just don't want to make a fool of myself. It's like being an actor in a play and not rehearsing lines over and over again. That is insanity. However instead of just missing a line and perhaps blushing, we end up with our ass on the canvas and the ref stopping the fight.

Girls...
