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.

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?

You were telling him to slap his nose with plastic spoons? I don't know who's more eccentric. The man in the coffee shop shoving the spoons up his nose or the man telling him to get a spoon and hit himself on the nose with it. What happened to just using the spoon to stir the coffee?

It's a well-known conditioning technique. All the greats have done it. Many also do it on the chins. Just imagine how good Mayweather could have been if he'd spent years banging spoons on his nose & chin rather than learning all that silly little stuff like parrying & slipping. And yet he gets into the Hall of Fame while Brocktonblockbust sits in Starbucks with a plastic spoon up his nose. The world just isn't fair.
