What got you into boxing?
What got me into boxing was I wanted to do a more active sport. Mostly because my biggest role model is my dad. He did ju-jitsu for a long time and a bunch of other martial arts, and he helped me become who I am today.
How long have you been boxing?
I’ve been boxing since December of 2022 it will be my first full year this December of 2023.
Do you have any nicknames given to you?
Yes, everyone in my class calls me “Killer.” It was given to me by my trainer because I move fast and my hits are fast.
What’s the hardest thing to do in boxing?
I would say the hardest thing to do in boxing is to keep going no matter how tired or burnt out you are because if you’re in the ring and stop for a split second, you will get hurt physically and mentally – because you will overthink and beat yourself up.
What would you tell someone if they want to do boxing?
I’m not quite sure what I would say, but I would definitely encourage them to join because it is a great sport for most individuals. On the other hand, I would definitely also let them know it’s not an easy sport and you need encouragement to keep going.
Personal question but, what is your favorite boxing move?
My favorite boxing move is a left hook! Not to show off but I have the best left hook and the fastest throws in my class.
