Lessons from my first box match

If you really want to test yourself I can recommend to try a boxing match.

I did my first one after a few years of training.

The interesting part about it is that you get to know yourself a bit better.

Some examples: how do I feel and react when I’m in a situation where I have to fight?

Am I nervous or can I act relaxed?

What happens when somebody punches me for real?

Of course, I have sparred many times but sparring is really different from a match.

For myself, I learned that I still can be relaxed but I certainly found out that it’s a different feeling than sparring.

Also, I learned that if somebody pressures me I’m ready to fire back.

Some valuable lessons for myself.
