Should I quit boxing?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
No, get practice, you'll do great!

This is totally normal, i was horrible at sparring, just keep shadow boxing, hitting the bag, speed bag, and ab work. remember to do road work like run 1-3 miles. My coach said 1 mile = 1 round. Remember to keep your hands up, make sure your jab and straight rights are as straight as your wall. if you cant land a punch, rush the guy and throw a lot of punches, if he curls up in his guard throw hooks. keep your eyes on your opponent. Relax, pick your shots but dont wait for it, remember the more you spar the more you learn. keep your head up and stick with the sport.

I was like you, i didn't give up on the sport and now im a beast in the ring, it'll be hard and wont come easy but hard work and dedication and commitment will play a key factor. Most of all, have fun! Hope this helps.

DO NOT QUIT!

Just to preface, I'm a female, and my coaches are big burly men...the other day I sparred with one of them and I felt like a failure. I literally almost cried because he is bigger, stronger, and faster than me, and I was just overwhelmed. I couldn't get a single hit in. He could tell that I felt defeated, but he told me that I should never be mad at myself for doing poorly, as long as I never gave up.

I know exactly what you're going through. BUT, you've also only been boxing for 3 months, and I've been doing it for almost a year and a half now. You will get better, I promise, if you stick to it and believe in yourself. That's how champions are made - it is never handed to you.

If you love boxing and if you have that feeling of love for the sport do not give up.It does not matter if you've been bad in sparring, Train more and not surrender.learn from those who are good at it in your club.

You still have much to learn. I felt the same way bro happened to me too. You just gotta keep training and work on your flaws.

Yo, bro. Don't give up on the sport! Everyone messes up, just don't get mad about it and keep trying (: Don't get out!

I've been boxing foraabout 3 months and tonight when we spared I did horrible. It was a bad night. Some of my punches didn't hit because my reach, my head movement was bad, I was kinda sloppy. I feel like I'm just worthless and boxing and have no future in it now. It's my favorite sport though. I LOVE boxing.I feel like a failure. I'm good on the bags just sparring is not my thing I guess. :/
