Guest guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 LOL- just kidding on the title. I am just a little proud this morning. Yesterday evening I hooked up with my friend Dave Tate and his buddyies and brothers to watch them box at our neighborhood school yard. As guys were getting bored because almost everyone had boxed, guys started egging on me and Dave to box. I didn't really want to because Dave is 20 lbs heavier than me.(remember how he got in trouble for not wanting to look " skinny " like me?) But everyone was was making " cracker eater " and " white boy " jokes, including Dave. So I figured I better do it or look bad. I think my diet is the only explanation for what ended up happening. We threw our hay makers and wild punches and backed off a bunch of times while the other guys watched and laughed, but I started seeing Dave getting really tired and breathing really hard. So I picked the time I thought I some a chance to land some hits and started in again. As we backed off each other again, his gaurd was way down and he was gasping for air. I just for some reason knew I should nail him ---so I did. It knocked him out----like a lite. It scared the heck out of me at first. All I know is we do the same type of exercise everyday ,and most other things we do are similar. The only thing different is I have not eaten meat dairy fish or even nuts and oil for a long time now. He does. Last night he ate my glove-lol. I checked , though it wasn't leather-lol. Thats true too. I really did check. To the group, though, seriously. I wasn't even breathing that hard or sweating much and, after Dave finally came back to earth and went home, I sparred again with another guy. I felt great. So did my ego-lol. Sorry ,Dave. I had to tell. It's too good a story to not tell. Text me if you want . I tried to get a hold of you all morning, and later last night.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Gosh! Wow! Congradulations, Joe! It sounds like you both learned that size, and even strenth are not the only things that go into winning a boxing fight. You may very well have more indurance due to your diet. Even at your age that extra gunk in the arteries from lots of animal products probably slows one down ..I hope David is okay now. After his ego recovers ,maybe he will be more open to going vegan now. Again, nice job, Champ. --- In , " mojoeriley " <mojoeriley wrote: > > > LOL- just kidding on the title. > I am just a little proud this morning.
