I grew up playing sports, but I was never really into contact sports. The most "roughing" I would do was throw a cheap elbow or two to a girl who was literally holding my hand under the post - but that's about it.
Don't get me wrong though I love to play around (I am @ninjakibs after all) but I'm not a big fan of people purposefully trying to cause me bodily harm. Doesn't mean I'm not a fan of watching slasher films! On the contrary to me not liking to inflict harm onto others, it doesn't phase me too much to witness it. Maybe it's all those video games I played as a kid...
One of my oldest friends took up boxing months back, originally as a fun way to stay in shape post-football, his hobby has now turned into an event!
preface: I'm all for women being equal and blah blah blah but to be honest, their fights were boring as fuck. merp.
ladies first
these were the most skilled boxers of the entire night, I only got a chance to tape some of the fight but trust me, there was blood.
We have Michael Summerall (joke) in the Blue Corner and Joe Zarrella in the Red.
Round 1.
Round 2.
Round 3. "FINISH HIM"
Great job to all the fighters that night, you have courage that I hope to muster up at some point in my life.
