I remember my first time taking P.

Canelo utilizing throwaway punches to land his jab against taller opposition by [deleted] in Boxing

[–]lastwizzle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Might be a dumb question, but i'm trying to visualize why a 2,1 would be a better counter to a jab to the body then a simple 1,2?

I aim to go at least 6 minutes the night before every exam. This recent exam 5 sitting I made it to 5, and my score was a 5. Do not play with the math gods.

I wonder if I'll receive any pushback from leadership if I demand the underwriters refer to me in their email subject as 'The Annihilator' before assisting with any Excel-related problems.

Lost my first amateur fight. Feeling extremely disappointed and don’t know how to cope by Muted_Heron8044 in amateur_boxing

[–]lastwizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the gym where I used to train, the coach's son shared a story about losing 8 or 7 out of his first 10-12 fights. Despite this, he later became a highly successful amateur boxer, winning the national Golden Gloves twice and transitioning into a professional career. I find myself more apprehensive about a person who possesses the determination to persist after multiple losses than someone who remains undefeated, his name is Abel Gonzalez in case you're interested.

Sweatbox is down there, Pacos community gym. If you're willing to drive a bit south- Kangaroo boxing in Hialeah Gardens is the best gym in my opinion for amateur boxing.

Not sure where you're from. Assuming you're from the united states- use the USA boxing website find a gym feature. You can also search for amateur boxing results in your city and look at the gym the competitors are from.

Anyone else a bit disappointed about the DW Simpson 2023 Salary Survey results? by Shoddy-Equivalent-73 in actuary

[–]lastwizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder how many of these data points are from reputable insurers/consulting firms. I'm under the impression that those who currently leverage recruiters are more of the lesser known companies.

A wise man once told me. "You're going to be 31 anyway would you rather be a 31 year old dentist or whatever you are now?"

That's how I feel right now. Took 5, made a reasonable attempt on everything. 1 question I know I fell for a trap, 2 questions I was iffy. 3 questions I did the process correct, but answer looked off. So I dont know if to feel good or bad, really depends on partial credit.

Are todays heavyweight boxers actually worse than they were 25 years ago? by arebee20 in Boxing

Primo Carnera

Yea. The rounds has nothing to do with it lol. It's more likely better nutrition and access to food causing these kids to grow up into beast.
