Any boxing fight fans here or others who have boxed themselves such as I have?

Sugar Ray Leonard
Manny Paqiou
Evander Holyfield
Ali, of course.
I did not ever box. Sadly my fisticuffs were in bar parking lots. But, I like those four fighters. mtmtuley

Jackie Robinson stuck me in a ring after too many fights on the ball field. Dabbled some into the service and the new definition of fight & winning came in.
I did like Ali. Haven't seen a fight in many years.

All good pics mtmuley! Manny Pacquiao was one of my favorites also. I felt like he beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. when they fought but didn't get the decision.

I started in 1971 and fought there until 1979. My parents took over the club in 1973 I believe it was. I moved to Stevensville and boxed there for a couple years and then moved to Missoula and started fighting at John Felde's club, the Missoula Maverick's. Last year I fought was in 1987 after I came back after a few years off so I could go fight in the World Police & Fire Games in San Diego California.

A friend of mine ran the club in Hamilton for awhile. I think in the 80's. mtmuley

Who was that?

 

[Birdbander]

Had exactly one bout in my life. I didn't grow a scrapper or fighter, just a small guy back then. Arrived for my first tour in Korea in '91 and found out my until was heavily involved in boxing smokers. I was voluntold. Two weeks later a KATUSA ended any illusion that I had of boxing in less than 3 minutes. Didn't get knocked down but he was so fast I couldn't get my head pointed straight to even throw a punch
Never participated after that.
A man's got to know his limitations.

I like that voluntold. It's a good sport but a rough one for sure.
