Learn to Punch First!
In the old days, we used to say "make sure you learn how to fight
standing up first, and then learn what to do on the ground." Today,
the proponents of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tell us that 90-95% of all

The
Most Important Things I Learned In Life, I Learned In The Boxing
Ring
It feels a little strange talking about my illustrious fighting
career, as I'm no longer fighting. I have retired. My excuse is
that I've turned 35, which is rather a good excuse, as you're not
legally allowed to fight in NSW once you turn 35. I could complain
about the 'ageism' involved in this, but to tell you the truth I'm
quite glad. It's not only escaping the trial of having to get up
at the crack of dawn every morning to go running...

Ted
The Bull's Ten Favorite Fights and Five Favorite Rounds
Over the years, I have seen literally thousands of fights and to
name my top ten will do injustice to many others and I apologize
for that up front. Still, I’ll give it a go and list them in order
of preference. Rightly or wrongly, I used the following criteria:
I had to see them live or when they were first televised (no tapes,
YOUTUBES, and/or videos), ebb and flow, sudden change in flow, controlled
violence, courage, imposition of will, superiority of technical
skills, pure savagery and personal satisfaction...

Beginner's Guide
to Sparring
Sparring is an essential part of any boxer's training programme
whether Amateur or Professional. Punch bags and focus pads are O.K
to develop timing, power, technique and fitness but they don't hit
back! A sparring partner is required to learn the true actions and
reactions of an opponent. Your boxing coach will tell you when you
are ready for sparring, this will be when your boxing education
really begins. There are two levels of sparring, body sparring and
open sparring. Both levels should be supervised at all times by
a competent coach....

The Revival
of Bare-Knuckle Boxing
When we think of Bare-Knuckle Boxing we envision the sport scene
more than the self-defense aspect of the system. We think of the
Queensberry rules and black & white visions of fighters who stood
in a strange looking, more upright, primary fighting stance. People
today consider the system a rather antiquated form of boxing which
has grown to become a high level sport...
