@@tuffbanana9687I think it’s not necessarily a good quote because boxing has killed many, and incapacitated much more. Further more, I feel like the saying is kinda down playing the severity of what boxing can do. “Sure, boxing has killed, but it also saves lives. Saves more in fact.” Whether that is true or not, the quote itself isn’t really holding the true dangers of boxing accountable. This is coming from someone that boxes, does Muay Thai, and wrestles so I don’t wanna come across as some weakling that never stepped foot in a fighting gym or ring or something
@@MusicFoRealz u just said “whether or not it is true,” which it completely is, “I don’t like it, so it’s not good” lol The quote itself literally implies that boxing is dangerous by saying how it saves “more than it takes” People like you guys just want to be conflictive online for no reason lol
Same. I started boxing so I could beat punks up if I ever had to defend myself from them. But the lesson I learnt is that the best self defence is to run away and only fight if it is absolutely necessary or you have to protect someone. You have things to lose unlike street thugs.
Yes, if you've never trained, you have no concept of fighting and the capabilities of other people and your only reference is watching fights on TV and you think you can do it also because by default you identify with the winner and you think you will beat everyone up. Once you go regularly to the boxing/combat sports gym and get roughed up in sparring, you realize, there are lots of other people who actually can fight, and you know maybe you win but maybe you get your ass whooped badly.
Any type of combat sport training will generally calm a person down. When you build confidence around good people you usually lose your ego and chip on your shoulder. Usually but there's always those people who turn into bullies.
Also I've been doing martial arts my whole life and I've noticed I'm much more disciplined than my classmates, and am able to stay still and quiet for longer.
I always recommend boxing or combat sports to my friends who dont go to the gym cause "it's boring". You can practice combat sports and get in shape and don't have to spar if you don't want to. Also, you're not "too old" to practice, just go there and have fun.
@@algirdasltu1389I know but boxing would be more enjoyable right. I love lifting but I couldn’t be in the gym longer than 4 hours but if I’m playing soccer with friends I’ll play all day. Similar to that I think
But be cautious, theres some people who get in their feelings if you train but DONT compete. I had a former friend switch up on me cause I helped him get ready for his match but I just didnt feel like fighting in the tournament myself. He got upset and started taking shots at me and everyone else who didnt fight that day but forgets that we are all amateurs and for most, it isnt a logical career path cause we are in the army already. Funny thing is, he stopped boxing and started to become a "DJ" instead. All that anger only for him to not even take it serious himself at the end of it all
Wow... It sucks to have had such "friend..." Generally, people like that demand from others what they themselves can't give. Hope you don't have to deal with him anymore. Life is just too short.
@@hidan407 Again, life is too short; your time is too valuable to waste on such individual. Best revenge is living well. Heck, he may even not stay any longer, if he carries his bull- over to the army. Best of luck to you 👍
@@hidan407 nah bro dont bother trying to get revenge. That guy sounds like the type to find a new passion every year so his "DJ" thing probably won't last and he will eventually be old with nothing to show for it since he never stuck at anything for long enough. I would just try my best to never interact with him again if I was you because he sounds like a massive cunt.
Yes! The second one! I always tell people this, especially those internet thugs who tell other people that hit the bad “oh lets see you in the ring”. That shit is so corny, you can train and NOT need to spar/fight. Me personally I love boxing, I love hitting the bag but I have no desire to “prove myself”. Don’t get me wrong is sparring an integral part? Yes. Is it necessary to enjoy the sport or get a good workout in? NO. That doesn’t make you weak, people have different goals. Just train, work on your technique and regardless if you spar you’re still a million times better off in a real life situation rather than having 0 training.
I can relate so much to your friend bro, I was a fat guy a year and some months ago, I’ve lost 20kg so far since I joined my boxing gym, and my confidence is in the sky, I’m in the best shape ever. 🥊 🇲🇽
Boxing is nicknamed "The Noble Art" as it is one of the most royal, regulated and disciplined sports, people that think it's "barbaric" don't know nothing. Keep it up king, this is yours 👑
This applies to most martial arts. People can start out of shape, the process will get them in shape through dedication and hard work. Martial arts of all kinds are also about control, and end up teaching people a lot of life lessons.
People at my martial arts gym are some of the nicest and friendliest people I’ve ever met. No reason to have beef when all your energy is gonna be put in a safe and controlled environment
These are some of my life lessons from learning Martial Arts. 1. If you want to strike, You have to be in strike distance even where opponent can also strike you. You must take risks to earn worth. 2. You should be either direct to hit, or indirect to hit. There is no answer, just the circumstance and timing are what decides it. 3. It’s not all about seeing, but also psychologic analysis. 4. You can either take a chance or make a chance. But be cautious about some traps.
Anger issues are also fought in a martial arts or just normal GYM. If you have a lot of anger you will explode but if you go to the gym or a martial arts gym you will let go of your anger
It changes the brain to be more independent and not a sheep with consumer mindset. Martial arts is tougher than any sport because it’s a one person show.
Boxing is a violent game that looks like a fight. You don’t have to beat the other opponent up. You just have to win the game. The battlefield is in your mind!
The nicest people I’ve ever met I met at the mma gym I started at. No one has an ego about it. I’ve seen two big guys absolutely manhandle each other and sink in one of the nastiest chokes I’ve ever seen and they both pop up with the happiest smiles and laughing
FUCKING FACTS ❤ Muay Thai and Boxing has saved my life, has taught me more than anything else, I have great mentors and teachers. I wish I would of started sooner - heading to 2 years with the gym I am at.
Congrats my friend! Stick with it and you will certainly gain both!!! Here's the kicker: everything learned in boxing will carry over into life. You will discover just how strong you really are!!! Good on you brother, Great decision!!! #boxinglove
do people actually think boxing is barbaric? Bro is pure discipline and hard work, if you fought like a Barbarian un boxing you would loose in half a second.
These are the real realities man, i'm also a boxer and i started boxing since i was 8 and i now i am 10 years and i now how it fells like to do hard training. You are a G man
The first thing is right but keep in mind that if you are not fit at all the boxing training will be very difficoult and unpleasant. I know that by my experience; more than 3 years ago i was very fat, i think even obese(like 34 bmi) and I decided to do boxing training, beacuse in that way i could learn how to fight and lose weight at the same time, but It was orribile beacuse i was not fit enaugh and I Ieft. Now, I could stay there, but It was difficoult af, in that condition It was almost impossible, so then I trained a bit,like 8 max 10 minutes a day, than i increased that to 15,20,30 ecc., After 2 years of training and diet(even that done progressively), i lost 20 kg and than the boxing training was such more enjoybole and not impossibile. So at the end, if you are too fat, or you have never trained, I think you should start slowly not directly with boxing training.
Same!!! Many times over ... and it created a new and enjoyable one in the process!!! I will box until I die!!! I wrote a love letter to boxing and I keep it in my wallet just in case I ever lose perspective or forget how far I've come
Damn, this shit really helped me. Im overweight and basically dont have any muscle, so im REALLY weak, i've always wanted to do boxing, but i didnt feel like i was fitting in the gym. Thanks for the clear up, i really needed to know that.
I wish I lived even remotely close to anywhere that did boxing or even mma, the closest is jujitsu which i respect, it just isnt for me. One place does private coaching for mma and boxing actually, but its at ridiculous prices, and they're an hour drive away. Respect to them cause they obvious have skills to teach one on one and trained great athletes but that is no a great place to start off, especially for a broke mofo like me XD There was a place that did boxing when i was in highschool and i intended to start going but they stopped offering boxing before i had the money to start going consistently. Central Oregon is kinda lame for striking sports or even HEMA, but at least a lot of people i know got to do jujitsu.
Hey man tips for my amateur debut I’m starting a little late I’m 19 years old I didn’t discover boxing till I joined the army and I’m having my first amateur bout in 3 weeks any tips for when I get in the ring?
At ur age for fitness and mental wellness boxing will be GREAT for you and who knows maybe you'll be a natural talent, yoel romero had his first fight in the ufc at 36 years old
For the last one, boxing teaches you it’s ideal to not take fights. The goal of boxing is not to use it. Don’t punch someone if they come close to you, disrespect you or provoke you, only punch them if they intend harm.
I was training at a gym from a novice and they realised I had decent potential but they got very annoyed at me when i said i wasnt ready to fight and said that i was wasting their time
I've trained in martial arts my entire life but have only come to boxing 6 months ago at a later age. It's been my experience that the martial arts, boxing included, attracts and developes higher quality human beings.
@@jaykay4775 I started with judo when I was 11 but I was on and off with it for no more than a year. Then at 16 (late 1960s) I found an excellent sifu in hung gar (tiger crane) kung fu. He ignited my love affair with martial arts. I studied with him for 2 years then went away to college where I studied Uechi ryu karate for the 4 years of college and for years after that. Along the way to becoming a senior citizen; 2 years Wing chun, a year of southern praying mantis and 3 years of BJJ. It's been an amazing journey.
Facts when I first came to boxing I was a little drugged up frail dude I was angry and hated everything boxing turned that around made me disciple calm and focused it made me overall a better person
My coach was a real man just like my dad, both really whipped me into shape to learn to do the work and be responsible for myself and others and only do what's necessary when it's necessary
Boxing teaches life. It’s freaking true men. When I first hit the gym, I was so stupid, arrogant and was looking down on my sparring mates. But after a year of training with my face get punched a lot, I know that I would never judge a book by its cover anymore. Now I’m humble, respectful to everyone and do my best in everything.
huh, the warmup of the kickboxing gym I go to humbled me real quick. When you see actual beasts in the gym, you realize that you ain't sht. And then slowly you improve and feel much better about yourself, especially when you have bros pushing you to be your best.
After seeing this I was like “fuck it” and looked up my local boxing gyms. I think I will start boxing. Thanks man, keep up the great work! Love your vids!
If your mom is worried about head trauma you can try wrestling or bjj. It's like equally dangerous in reality but it might be easier to convince her that it's safe. Also good for self defence :)
Point number 2 depends on the gym. Plenty of boxing gyms do offer fitness classes, but many will keep separate classes for competitive boxers, and there are some that only have people who are going to fight as they can’t facilitate keep fitters, with the exception of maybe people who have boxed for that club a long time.

This is so true my coach says it’s fine gotta get you in shape !
One of the best decision i made is to go train Boxing
huh, the warmup of the kickboxing gym I go to humbled me real quick. When you see actual beasts in the gym, you realize that you ain't sht. And then slowly you improve and feel much better about yourself, especially when you have bros pushing you to be your best.
After seeing this I was like “fuck it” and looked up my local boxing gyms. I think I will start boxing. Thanks man, keep up the great work! Love your vids!
I wanna do boxing so bad but my mom doesn’t want me to get hurt, like I’ve been bullied my whole life and I am pretty sure I’ve been through worst
If your mom is worried about head trauma you can try wrestling or bjj. It's like equally dangerous in reality but it might be easier to convince her that it's safe. Also good for self defence :)
@Sava Ok and even in boxing if your not professionally fighting its VERY VERY rare to get head trauma from it
Your best friend looks exactly like The Yorkshire Ripper- The serial killer
I train so i can fight in the Ring, i wanna fight in the Ring
DAMN. This is really making me want to join a boxing gym this summer.
You will regret not doing it I recommend kickboxing or boxing
Do it bro.
"Its ur first night at fight club u have to fight"
fighting is an art form, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
talk about repeated concussive head trauma
RUNNING in the MIDDLE of WINTER
At some gyms you do have to fight like my gym is a competition gym only people who compete can go
I haven't fought someone since like 6 years ago, can't wait to start training boxing and sparring people
Point number 2 depends on the gym. Plenty of boxing gyms do offer fitness classes, but many will keep separate classes for competitive boxers, and there are some that only have people who are going to fight as they can’t facilitate keep fitters, with the exception of maybe people who have boxed for that club a long time.
The last one is def true i've defenetly learned to stand up for myself and be there for myself from boxing
3 weeks into my kickboxing journey and so far I agree with everything. I’m already down 3kg, feel more disciplined, and much calmer.
