Okay well over the weekend I got interested in boxing. Yesterday i started reading up on it looking around and the whole thing seems interesting to me. One of the main reasons i wanted to get into boxing is because i want to get in shape and i kind of want to change the fact that i'm weak.
I am kind of a theorycrafter so i'm not sure what i can actually do but i like to plan out stuff.
After reading a bit i would say i am an Out-Fighter, because i'm not really strong so i can't do power hits.
One problem is the theory is different from practice so i've set up a thing where i'm going to try to box against my friends.
My friends prolly aren't going to read into this as much as i am so i'm going to use that as my advantage over their raw power. I wouldn't say they are insanely stronger then me and i'm not insanely weak but there is a difference.
Anyways most of my friends are left-handed... and i'm guessing that fighting a left-handed person would be a lot different from a right handed person. right?
what should i do about this?
is there a different strategy i should use?
should i just switch and myself fight left-handed?
during the fight would i have an advantage by switching back and forth between left and right handed?
Another question is I fought one of these friends a long time ago and they played aggressive. They would charge in and hit. When this happens what do i do?
Do i step back?
Do i try to dodge the initial punch and jump to the side of them?
Do i just brace for the hits and wait for an opening?
i'm still going to be reading more into this but yeah any help would be appreciated.
What would i learn more from?
Reading?
Training Videos?
Actual fight Videos?
or Actually Fighting?
1-4 best to worst please
