Answers:
sure! if u like that type of stuff...me? i don't know....i like boxing sometimes, and sometimes i don't...i don't like violence or fights, but fighting is dressed as sport...so, that is my opinion...however, if u really interested, you should go for it, try to learn how to box with your left hand and right hand, like both positions...if u are boxing with someone who is lefty, and you are righty, you gotta becareful with them left hooks, that is why, is very important to swith up on the person, to confuse them. i say, try it and if u like it, make it a goal to surpass ur dad...fathers always want their sons to do better than them, its the way it is...try YouTube this guy...Miguel Cotto, type his name on YouTube, and watch some interesting highlights, u can learn a lot from watching tapes, i always watch tapes of Kobe Bryant. Miguel Cotto is a great boxer. good luck, and may ur carrer flourish. =o)
