Hi. I'm 20 years old. 6'4", 178 pounds (Just below 180, currently), and I have the ******, un-realizable, etc.. dream of becoming the next Super Middleweight great [Or 170 lb. catch-weight great], ha.
I've just really started training, I'm currently in college [Oklahoma U.], and I plan on giving this a (truthfully) good run.
To help me stay committed, I plan on updating my progress, my training schedule/routine, my diet, my weight, etc.. etc.. WITH PICS [duh.].
I'm a southpaw, but I also like dropping my left and using the flicker jab with my left (a little roy jones-ish). I've been trying out diff. techniques (no real trainer yet, I hope to get one here in Norman, OK. by the end of this month, though) and in love with the peek-a-boo defense, as well as the cross-arm [George Foreman comeback type, lower arm level than usual]. I've got a pretty good mind for boxing I think. I'm going to try and out-box with my height, not try to out-brawl with the advantage.
This probably sounds idiotic but I really think I've got some good natural talent. My straight left is pretty damn potent already.
So flame away. Or drop some hints or whatever as time goes on. I don't care, but you gotta' start telling yourself you 'can' somewhere. This is where for me.
I've also worked 8 hr. manual labor in Oklahoma 100 degree sun busting ass (actually working hard, just to work hard, not trying to work as easy as possible which everyone tried to get me to do)* and I've never been knocked out in my 20 years on this planet. I've got a scar under my jaw where my 180 lb. friend jumped straight up into my jaw with his shoulder [a full jump, we were playing basketball] and wasn't fazed at all. That is probably actually when I really started wanting to follow this dream.. Cuts will probably be a ***** for me 'tho.
* - and not for my 'dad' for an actual construction company, with actual 300 4 ft. by 8 ft. pieces of pressed, wet ply. And a jobsite 4 football fields area-wise. Obviously these things mean little, but give you a bit of info as far as my work ethic and natural conditioning go..
