I Have Been Beaten Up
Boxing... While going to the University I joined the boxing club. After a long period of training I was supposed to fight. I won my first fight but got beaten down twice. It was intense pain and humilation and caused a temendous beeding from my nose.
After accepting the pain as something you can enjoy (strange but true) I went for my second fight. Actually I wen for some punches to my body and face. We exchanged hard punches and it felt right. Then in the middle of the 5th round my opponent nailed me in one corner and one of his uppercuts hit me hard. My head was driven up and on my way down to the floor I took an other hook to my face. It felt warm somehow when I was knocked out. I heard the referee counting 8 and I tried to get up. The fight went on but just for some seconds. My opponent was hitting my body and my lungs in order to cause pain to me. Then he finished the fight with an other uppercut. My face was beeding all over and I was done. That´s what boxing is about and I love it even if it ends like this.
