boxing has had long history within my family and the sport means a lot to me all of my siblings have gotten involved in it one way or another boxing has taught me a lot about myself I love boxing. boxing is a motivation for me anyone can do it but to be good you must put your time energy and heart into it. for me boxing is important because it shows that things that seem impossible are able to be achieved through hard work and determination. and for me when i see gloves it takes me back to when i was younger with my father or brother watching fights in Madison square garden feeling the inspiration and spirit in the air. seeing boxers in the ring gave me inspiration to tackle anything i participate in with 100% of myself and is a constant reminder for me that i can succeed if I truly desire it. boxing also connects me further with my family as i remember growing up and boxing with my younger cousins in our makeshift ring in the backyard. Boxing is a vital part of my culture and serves as a bridge that connects me with my family. Growing up, I watched matches with my relatives, sharing the excitement and passion that comes with each bout. It’s more than just a sport; it’s a tradition that brings us together, sparking conversations and strengthening our bonds. Through boxing, we celebrate our heritage and honor the values of hard work and perseverance that have been passed down through generations. It’s a beautiful way to keep our family's spirit alive while creating lasting memories. Boxing with
