Cool.
Getting busted in the nose and face
and having to keep your eyes open
is a hell of a lot of fun... eh?
I like boxing, especially divisions other than the heavies
now, because they are really great athletes and
some of the toughest people in sports.
Takes a hell of a lot of guts and you have to be
in superior shape. I have boxed. Just at gyms (San Antonio
is a really big boxing town with all the hispanic boxers).
A really good boxer in the Army showed me a little bit.
(San Antonio also used to be full of military). Never been
so tired in my life. Not to mention that it hurts to get hit
in the face, even with protection.
Really I just like to watch good athletes. Thats how I was drawn to
the horses as well. I played every intramural sport known to man
in college. Sadly I was far superior in Tennis, the sport I probably
like the least now.
