    Cool, I'm in training myself but don't intend to pro or anything.

    What do you think of the whole Manny Pacquiao/Floyd Mayweather Jr. thing?

    Its all a bit ridiculous. Ducking opponents is dumb, opposing drug tests is dumb. Its all a bit playground for me so i don't really care to much about it. But thats professional boxing for you, i like the skill level but the bullshit detracts from the boxing and i dont care for bullshit. So i actually find ametuer boxing vastly enjoyable in comparison.

    I don't know if you know this but Mayweather and Shane Mosley "verbaly agreed" to fight in May but Mayweather just backed out saying he wont fight for 10 mill.

    Thats major ridiculous if you ask me.

    I used to box, but I have a mental condition where basically 5% of the time I go braindead and forget what's happening during tense situations. This results in me leaving myself wide open. Not great for boxing.

    I used to be on my schools Boxing team, but after too many people (I'm guessing the school board) complained it was too violent they took it out...

    That was a major bummer.
