lets talk about boxers who crossed voer to thai/kick/MMA or any other martial arts do you know anyone among your friends and family? I have a good freind called "assad the afgan" he used to be amateur boxer during school days ( and was also "hardest in the school for his year" ) He went to university and took up Taekwondo. He entered his first tournament and got silver medal! He had natural athletic from being amatuer boxer. He also had amazing hand speed, but since TKD was semi contact sport, i think he sort of lacked control and ended up hitting too hard LOL He also had excellent footwork and managed to avoid most of the kicks. what other examples do you know?

no problem farhad first one is gone do you remeber andrew lowe - he was boxer turned kickboxer and made a damn good job of it to also ryan vickers was the same, ryan is not a fan of some of the stretching though (bless) both boxed for the services i believe andrew is looking to return to boxing with the aba, we are very lucky as we now have world champion boxer carl greaves taking a boxing academy at the gym, which is proving to be very popular.. for myself i have to say i get bored just using my hands my legs are alway itching to help out

I can well relate to that moley we have a lot of cross over in our gym between boxing and kickboxing.Were based in a boxing gym you see so theres a lot of boxers trainign with us and vice versa.

but dont u think that is a good thing i think that it keeps the mind alert and tunned in plus it gives the fighter a more possitive attitude to all aspects of ring craft and stiles of fighters? ?
