Oh but box IS primitive as reference to something ancient, simple, uncivilized and uncultural. So there's no point of calling me elitist for that, what I said is a fact. I never said something like: "box is for stupid people". If you're enjoying it, well good for you I say. Anyway, I'll not say more about it...

You did come about as an elitist. The it's sad at the end brought that across quite nicely. I don't think most humans have a clue what they are doing in this life, so whether you entertain yourself by something like art or music which is considered cultured and civil, or by willingly stepping into a ring with some other guy doing the same thing to exchange blows because you enjoy it, I don't see it as making a difference or one being better than the other. But perhaps I am mistaken, it wouldn't be the first time I have been wrong.

Elitism or not, what the fuck is the point of willingly fighting with someone? I'll agree that it's very stupid and pointless, and shouldn't be compared with art or music.

Yep. Boxing is a retarted sport. Don't like watching it, its just plain stupid IMO.

If someone else enjoys it, more power to them...but I think its just stupid. To be able to make a living just by smacking someone...

If bashing me makes you feel good.... then put up the gloves and keep throwing the punches!!!

What is the point of willingly fighting someone? It is fun. Some people like to fight alot and when they get a chance it makes them very happy. I find art to be pointless and so do alot of other people, but you don't see me going around bashing it, because I understand that it is greatly enjoyed by others. I guess it makes people feel good to think of themselves as being above others. You are the mighty and civil and I am the lowly and primative. And yet, in reality we are both just humans who won't be around too long before death beckons us away.

Only about 4 more hours or so. This is going to be so much fun.

Good luck. Don't forget to wear the lead blocks in your gloves.

Sorry for letting you down pancakes. I sucked it up big in the first two rounds. I rushed the guy and tried to hit him over and over but just kept missing as he pounded away at my head. We were both frustrated. I was frustrated because I sucked so bad and kept missing him, he was frustrated because he kept landing super good punches on me but I wouldn't go down. Then finally in the third round I caught him in the corner and took over, but it was too little too late, so he won by decision. So I am 0-1. Dang. Oh well, it was still fun. I will try to redeem myself on January 30, 2003 when I box again.
