Finally getting around to updating this ... I really wish I could pull on the gloves and trunks and climb into the ring with all the boxers on here, but I figure I'm past the age where I should be taking punches – but more importantly after two back and neck surgeries, I've been told by my doctor that any abrupt movements have the chance to cause some serious damage, so my in-ring days are pretty much done, but I haven't ruled out some light sparring at some point ... I boxed almost 15 years amateur (before you get any ideas, just for full disclosure, it was VERY low-level amateur, the great majority when my gym club would have a card with other nearby clubs, never anything like Golden or Silver Gloves or any kind of state, regional, etc., stuff). But for right now, I'm just looking to chat boxing, message with other boxers, and share photos and videos. I've done a lot of cyber and role-play boxing online just to keep my interests up, not nearly as good as the real thing but better than nothing, and since I'm a writer by trade I'm pretty good at the cybers – at least that's what I've been told (and I have had a lot of fun recently with cyber on audio/voice ... don't knock it until you've tried it LOL). And since I mentioned being a writer, I'm going to continually add to my blog that's available to everyone, and post some boxing fiction stories I've written (read the top blog for more info there). Give a shout if you want to chat sometime, I'm also at Steely Dan Boxer on Skype if you're there (I'm there more often than here right now, but that could change...)
