First ever boxing match this morning - it was fun. It was an in-house tournament, more or less an interclub, and I agreed to it a month ago right before a great work contract came up, meaning I literally did ONE training/sparring in the past month. My fitness is okay because I’m cycling 1.5-2 hours a day but it was weird to take a bout and not really train for it. I didn’t know my opponent at all, never seen him before, but although he was a pure boxer I had a lot more fight experience than him and control of distance, footwork, confidence was the difference. The fun of it for me was just to see where my base level is now without really training so it’s great to find that it’s remaining fairly solid. Oh and I got my second BJJ stripe at white belt a month ago! Hoping to get to blue belt within a year. -- source link
