In this site and our martial art sites some ppl think they know enough about boxing without any training or anything. Truthfully I'm tired of them thinking they know it all just by watching some PPV fights and thinking its all about punching. So I'm going to list some things I heard. Also if there is anyone who wants to add to it or w/e go ahead.
1. Boxing is easy and everyone can box in some degree.
Boxing is not easy to learn. No one with boxing training can not box like a boxer can. Its like saying I know Muay Thai, because I can throw a kick, punch elbow n knee. Well its not true. You will have trouble with the basics of punches. EX. Learing how to throw a straight punch and not dropping it when returning it.
2. Boxers cant fight without gloves in the streets.
OK thats the biggest bs. A boxer learns how to use their fist with or without gloves.
3. Boxers are limited in a street fight.
True a boxer cant kick, or elbow their oppenents do to the rules they follow in the ring. Note I said ring not street fight. So if a boxer was in a street fight they would use what ever they have like every other ppl would do to win a fight. EX. MIke Tyson was in many street fights and used his tools to win.
4. Boxers cant handle Multiple oppenents.
In the real world no one can handle multiple oppenents. This is not a movie where you can knock someone out with 1 hit n beat all 20 or 30 ppl to the ground. The most that anyone can handle is like 7-10 maybe.
5. If you train in boxing you will break all you knuckles easy.
First the only way a boxer can break their knuckles is when they over do it. The same thing can happen to anyone who doesnt train in boxing. Second no matter what art you are doing, you have the same risk of breaking a leg as easy as breaking your knuckles.
6. Boxing teaches nothing but punching.
Boxing does not only teach about punching.
Boxing teaches
How evade incoming attacks from every angle.
Shows how to find your distances between you n your oppenent.
It teaches you footwork
And much more, but I getting tired so I'm pretty much done.
7. Boxing only works when your big guy.
To me boxing works much better when you are small guy. I say that is because, smaller boxers are quicker than the big guys and still packs a punch.
Well I'm done for to night I wish I could remember some more, but I cant. I'm to tired and I'm going to bed. If you like to add anything feel free to do so. Good night to all.
