Greetings from canada... Heres a little introduction My name is Dan I have been in martial arts all my life and tried some kungfu/karate,wrestling,judo etc... But two years ago I discovered boxing and overtime I was able to express that traditional martial arts through the art of boxing. Which made me realize that boxer that dont practice martial arts are missing out and vice versa. Martial Arts gives boxers a good flexibility ( VERY IMPORTANT!!!! ) not for kicking but loosening the hips and taking your power to new heights. Also you become more creative and less prone to injuries and better sense of thinking and etc... Oh and boxing gives the Martial Artist some serious weapons and fitness great cardio workout and dealing with punches in self-defense situations and etc... Thats pretty much it here to introduce my background boxing/general martial arts and have some good talks. Thanks Best Regards Dan
