February Challenge - Favourite sport

Boxing is something I have always loved - even as a child I would often wait up all night with my Dad to see the big fights live from Vegas on TV. I belonged to first a boxing gym and then a kickboxing gym in the UK although I never fought competitively - there's something about being punched in the face I could just never get used to!

Wrapping your hands before boxing is very important as it helps to protect your bones and strengthen your wrist and thumbs. Most boxers are very particular about how their wraps are put on, and the fighters in my old gym would often insist on a particular trainer putting them on for them before a competitive fight.
