The enitre purpose of boxing class is to teach fundamental concepts about boixng. That includes form, movements, fakes, and currently, jabs. For yesterday's class, it was only the 3rd day covering the jab and proper techniques to use and block it. Just happens to be my luck that I get a guy who can barely speak english, 10lb heavier then me, and forgets any uniformed technique that we have learned from the previous lessons. He was so sporadic at times that he would litterally drop both of his gloves to parry my little jab, only to qucikly follow up with a left hook (his idea of a jab). To add to his frantic punches, he would go at complete random times. Now I know that the whole purpose of boxing is to confuse the other guy with as many random and unexpected hits as possible, but this guy wsa throwing them while the teacher was talking! After my nose caught 3 left hooks, blood started pouring out. It pretty much continued all through class. The worst feeling was looking like a girly-man becuase this dude was wrecking my face when really he had resorted to gorrila warfare, with gloves. Needless to say, at the end of the day, as long as it looks like your trying hard, the instructors don't care how much blood is spilling into your mouth peice. .... ADRAIN!!!!
