I made the transition from kickboxing to boxing recently, and see myself becoming a boxing fundamentalist since this sport is so cool.
I'm trying to work myself to amateurs, and then to build my record until I can reach national level.
Nobody prepared me for the insanity it takes for someone to possess when switching from being a hobbyist to trying to compete. My only K1 fight was organised by my gym with another fighter so there wasn't even bad blood. Yesterday, I got hit with such a clean left-hook to the temple that I was mentally devasted. If that happened in a boxing ring, my opponent would smell blood and finish me off.
With college in the way, and eventually university, I'm biting my nails. I don't know if I can risk it all just to become a national level boxer, and that's if I don't get injured half-way, or bitch out...or fail exams because I can't balance either. Honestly, have so much respect for boxers because a lot of them have families or full-time jobs and live off their own income.
I can always just go the gym and then jiujitsu here and there to continue building my ego but I really want to try this.
I've started to think less and less of my looks. Men are generally very accepting of my looks. I can't imagine giving women any favouritism outside of their looks, or provided that they have children. Men are more empathetic in my opinion.
I wish I could be a lot meaner in real life but I grew up with a lot of fucking food, and a lot of devices.
