Different Types of Street Boxing Minds

Self-conceit. To go out there and prove you are superior is one of the worst
motivations. Street boxing can sometimes be a venue for racism and sexism. Nationalism is
different from the previously mentioned beliefs; so is the love or honor accorded on
one’s family, company, school, or sponsor. Nationalism is simply love of country. It
is not going out and proving to everyone that other countries are inferior to yours and
you aim to humiliate them. This is called extreme nationalism. Racism and sexism
have the same intent: to treat others as inferior and humiliate them. Boxing for the street champions do
not compete to prove anything except that they train harder than others do. They also
understand the fact that others may someday be able to do better than they do if they
train much harder. At times, ace athletes compete to prove their style or technique is
better, but this does not make them better persons than others, or that their race or sex
is better. How a fighter trains decides whether he wins or loses an event, not his race
or gender. Hence, a street boxer also knows that in life, everybody has a chance to
win, depending on how hard one tries. He lives the truth that he does not belong to a
supreme race or gender—he only trains and tries harder.
