It's hard to post when you're being trained in something you don't want to be

Fuck I'm being trained in the Security Console yay. More responsibility SAME FUCKING PAY.

My bike is also acting weird as fuck it shut off completely twice on the highway yesterday. And again when I got home today. I'm scared for my baby, hold me.

I've been home for 30 minutes and this is all I could up with to post since I'm too tired to think. 

Bernard Hopkins lit a fire

I watched the Bernard Hopkins vs Kelly Pavlik fight Saturday. What I saw was a 43 year old man boxing as if he was 20. It was an amazing display of boxing prowess. To think this sport can make it so at 43 you can beat up a 26 year old champion is amazing(not saying Pavlik doesn't have his flaws but he's not a push-over). 

I felt that fire inside me watching these two men fight. I'm completely hooked on boxing again. I downloaded the Vitali Klitschko vs Sam Peter fight as soon as I could. It filled me with great joy to see Vitali in motion. I didn't even care about this fight or that Vitali won last week. This is the change that Hopkins brought upon me.  

I'm so hooked I payed $150 for tickets to Roy Jones Jr. vs Joe Calzaghe. I feel it again like I regained that spark. That feeling of joy from watching poetry in motion.

It feels great.

Onto some personal news. Saturday I'm going to get my tattoo finished. 

Going to get some nice colour in there.

I'm excited for that.  As soon as that heals I start training full time for the Golden Gloves.  

Today I took a drug test for the Carpenter's Union and hopefully will be starting school in December. I plan on keeping my security job and doing that so things may get rough in the future. 

Well it's not a super long post as I said it would be yesterday but it'll do.

Didn't get to post at work

Was to busy watching Pavlik vs Hopkins and then the Malaysia Moto GP will do a nice long post on those tomorrow since I'm off.  I also have a drug test for the Carpenters Union and I'm really excited about the opportunity.

Vitali Klitschko beat up some Nigerian

Vitali Klitschko won the world heavyweight title last saturday. He apparently beat the crap out of Sam Peter. I think its sad that I just found out about this and I seemingly don't really care. There was a point in time where I would have been watching live cheering and doing shots when Klitschko won. This is the sad state of boxing. 

I've always loved boxing. It's been something that I've always fallen back on. I was born in the year Mike Tyson captured the heavyweight crown as the youngest man to ever do it. I used to watch the Rocky movies religuosly. I always had the most fun pretending I was a boxer as a young rapscallion.

Now boxing sits in this dark place with MMA chipping away at its foothold. Sure there are many fans that will never waver considering MMA to "barbaric". Me? I'm young and I've actually come to enjoy watching MMA it doesn't bother me to see wreslting and BJJ. But I miss the joy I got from watching boxing. MMA fights will never match: cursing up a storm when Lewis Klitschko got stopped, almost coming to tears when Kotsya Tszyu quit against Ricky Hatton, laughing at the insanity during the 10th round of Judah Mayweather. Boxing stirs something up inside me that MMA never will. 

Boxing seems to hold the answer to the question I've asked all my life. "What does it mean to be strong?"

I started boxing to find that answer and while I wavered from my search for a while, I'm back with a determination to get my answer. So while I may not care about current fights in the boxing world in the future I will care about my fights... and the world will too.

BOLD

I weigh 254lbs. I'm fat. It's time for me to take initiative and get off my ass. I'm making a bold prediction right now.  I will win the NJ state Golden Gloves at 175lbs.  This is something I will try my hardest to accomplish. 

I've boxed on and since May 2005. It's time to make something of myself in the boxing world. I have skill and more than enough natural talent. I just lose motivation. This can no longer happen.  I'm 22 years old while still young I am getting older everyday and I'd hate to never give myself a chance.  I want to fight and I want to win.  The only way I can lose is if I don't try. 

So I make my prediction again. I WILL WIN THE NJ STATE GOLDEN GLOVES AT 175LBS!

Vroom Vroom

It's always strange starting a blog. I'm never quite sure what to write or what I set out to accomplish. I know one thing that always happens though I end up abandoning my blog. That's going to change I'm going to update this blog at least 5 times a week.  Why 5? Because that's how many days I work my shitty security job where I do nothing but sit at a front desk for 8 hours. From 4pm to 12am. Hey it pays the bills.

In my incredible boredom I figure 'why not?' I spend a lot of my time reading blogs and various forums but that's the one downfall of the internet while you can always find content is it something you want to read. So I'm going to create my own content. 

I don't really have a purpose for this blog. It'll be about my daily life until I can find some topic that I can stick too. Although I may never find this I do seem to have quite a bit of different places to draw upon so while I may never find a true direction there will always be something to read. 

I guess I'm done for right now. I may update again today while at work.
