Boxing just wasn’t challenging enough for me it got boring knocking people out all the time. Had to move on to something else that could keep me interested. Plus, I wanted to learn a discipline that would allow me to successfully take on 4 or 5 opponents at one time in case I found myself in such a situation. Messed around with bodybuilding a little bit as well but it was making me too robotic and I was losing my flexibility which was essential to my Karate. This was in the 1970’s back then you really didn’t have to worry about someone pulling a gun on you unlike today. I am paying the price for it now though my body is a mess. Simple things like typing out this post can bring debilitating pain. I don’t have three knuckles on my left hand (I am a Southpaw) from brutally KOing too many people in hard sparring.

Bowl and Jake. You two have put such a scare in me that I just shite my drawers.
Off to the shower, then bed.
Good night.

How could you not be incredibly embarrassed to say this? People that talk like this blow my mind

I run a 4.4 forty, I'm 6'5" 260 pounds, I'm the WWE tag team champion along with my brother, I have a 13 inch weiner, I got bored with boxing because I was just knocking everbody out, and I'm an astronaut.
