Tfw first boxing match today
save me /fit/ what have I gotten myself into
A boxing match
>>36722111
Just take a dive in the 1st.
You're not fighting Tyson
Move around a lot, stay on his non-dominate side, jab to defend/attack/distract, keep moving your head, you'll be fine
The worst thing that'll happen is you getting knocked out. And that's not so bad.
>>36722136
it would be extremely painful
>>36722295
you a big guy?
>>36722297
for you
>>36722295
You wouldn't know much about it. Chances are the guy OP's fighting won't have a hard enough punch to cause any serious damage.
Pull down your pants, nobody wants to beat the shit out of a mentally handicapped man.
>>36722111
You're on the way to choose your type of life cause ya gotta.
I tell you right now now, a fighter would be the hotta.
>>36722111
Get drunk or take drink robitussin.
I know it sounds like bad advice. But I was drunk or robotripping for most of the time I played Football.
No less than half of all the games over the course of three years and I was still all-county.
Also if you fuck up you have an excuse, and it wont hurt.

Pretend you're playing dark souls.
>>36722111
Watch for left hook.
You'll be doing amateur so you won't end up in a KO
Chances are this it the guy first fight too ,they'll be as scared as you are
>>36722111
future mma fighter here, OP don't be scared, the first fight is always the most stressfull.
>you win
congratulations buddy
>you lose
you lost your first fight, what a surprise. Don't worry, even the best fighter lose fights
Don't be scared of being hit because you will be getting punched beyond a shadow of a doubt. You can win if you believe you can win. Use your footwork, remain calm. Don't close your eyes if you get hit in the face, if he tries to hit your body, make him pay with uppercuts. Don't pussy out cause you will keep yourself awake at night. Good luck OP
>>36722111

That's just how it is brah, everyone gets nerved up doing new things, you just have to say fuck it and do it.
>>36722111
The first fight is always the worst, but if you pussy out now then you will have regret for the rest of your life wondering
>what if

>>36722111
Muay thai fag here, as far as boxing goes keep him on your inside and watch for patterns. Move your head around and attack the body.

>>36722485
Actually all the best fighters won all their early fights and have ridiculous records with long streaks of wins after wins.
>>36722386
You're an idiot.
>>36727438
You realize that not every random fight they have counts into those statistics, do you?
>>36722682
>A L L of them in button up shirts
What the fuck is this??
I'm back, lost by decision sorry /fit/.
>>36728432
How bad was it? What did your coach say?
>>36722120
I think you may be onto something
>>36728507
"Never speak to me or my wife's son again, you're an embarrassment. Don't come to the gym anymore."

>>36728432
>decision

>>36730067
Bruh
>>36728432
Well, now you know what to expect
The guys you fight often are just as nervous, good on you for getting in there though
I'll train you in my basement, OP. I've never really trained any martial art, but my mom used to beat me when I was a kid and I'd fight cunts at school. Also, I fought a lot in NHL15 be a pro mode. I don't have a basement, though.
Coming from a guy who's 9-3-1 as an amateur kickboxer, if you trained hard you'll be fine. The training is way harder than the actual fight, as soon as one punch gets thrown, even if it doesn't land, you'll start running on autopilot and won't even remember the fight other than being in the corner between rounds, and maybe a couple parts of the actual fight. People will tell comment on something yu did, or your opponent did in the fight and you won't even remember doing it.
>>36730067
Damn nigga
keep those hands up. don't get cute.
Is boxing good for shoulder gains?
I'm starting to feel a little pain in my shoulders when lifting (only after I workout).
Would boxing help for developing stronger shoulders or is it just a ticket to snapcity for me?
>>36722130
You wanna know what the guy who fought Tyson was told before Tyson made his name?
>you're not fighting sugar ray leonard
>>36730520
you don't really get strength through boxing training. Stamina sure, but strength no. I'm around 203 lbs now, and doing boxing on a diet took me down to like 173. It's mostly cardio. You don't need to be strong as fuck to be a good boxer
>>36730564
thanks man
>>36727438
>all the best fighters won all their early fights
not Bernard Hopkins, Alexis Arguello, Gerald McClellan, Carlos Monzon, Pongsaklek Wonjongkam...if I thought about it or boxrec'd it I could come up with more. It is true, though, that most well-connected fighters have their early records padded by tomato can professional losers.
>>36722111
Cmon don't be a glass joe, you get in there and be the best god damn Lil mac you can be you niggerfaggot
