I’ve been wrestling and boxing since I was eight years old. My dad put me into the sport because my neighborhood was never the safest, so he put me in basically so I knew how to defend myself if it came down to it. Eventually it did come down to where I had to defend myself in a fight when I was in 6thgrade. That day I was glad my dad pushed me into the sport. After the situation I had in the 6th grade I training nonstop and competing throughout the years. I knew eventually I had to get my feet wet and I knew I was going to have to step into the cage one day. My first fight was planned on May 18,2016 I can remember it like it was yesterday. My coach told me “Sylvia it’s about that time for you to take on your first MMA fight”.

“A View from the Bridge” is a tragic play written by Arthur Miller, based on the concept of illegal immigrants being snitched on by their own relatives.  In this play, the boxing scene refers to the last part of Act 1 or Episode 5 of the play. So far in the play, we learn that Beatrice and Eddie are married, and their adopted child is Catherine, who is almost a legal adult.  Marco and Rodolfo are illegal immigrants from Sicily, who are Beatrice’s cousins.   Catherine and Rodolfo soon start to develop feelings for each other, and Eddie is trying to prevent this, as he has an unnatural attraction for Catherine.  In the boxing scene, Eddie insults Rodolfo many times, and tries to humiliate him through boxing with him. Marco gets angry

The first time I ever fought was with Shayla and she is the only one who has ever made me cry in karate. For my first fighting class, my dad had bought me a helmet shield, afraid that I would get hurt. Ironically, the helmet shield hurt me more than it did protect me. When I fought with Shayla, she had punched me in the head and my helmet shield became loose hitting me in the chest every time she punched me. It hurt so much. I cried and got bruises all over my chest. This made me afraid of fighting. A few years later when I was a blue belt, my dad had accidentally signed me up for fighting at the tournament. Since he had already paid for it, he made me go fight. This was my first tournament, my first time fighting in since Shayla fought me, and I was terrified. As I sat down around the ring waiting for my turn, I saw one girl was beating everyone in the division. She had the fanciest kicks and the fastest movements. She even made three girls cry and I was knew I didn't want fight her, but ultimately I was chosen to be her last competitor. I was actually surprised at how well I did, but without Sensei Jose's help, I wouldn't have been able to beat her. For the first few minutes, I was kicked in the face a couple of times but then someway, somehow I scored a point by side kicking her, nothing fancy. I did that a couple of times, and then all of a sudden I was in the lead. I was winning.

     When we finally got to the fight, they weighed me in and my coach told me to start putting on my boxing gear.  I wore black trunks with a red flame going down the right leg and an black tank top.  After I put on my gear I started to wait till it was my turn to fight. I started to eat some cashews, but I was too nervous to eat. After a while, it was finally my turn to fight my coach wrapped my hands up and warmed me up.  My coach and I started heading towards the ring so I could fight.  When the bell rung, I rushed towards my opponent and started throwing all the combinations I knew.  By the time that I knew, the fight was over in the first 55 second in the first round. I shook my opponent’s hand and his coach’s hand. I was so happy I won and got a trophy my dad was so proud of me.

The blistering heat glistened on my face as I stepped out the car door. It was June and I was preparing to test for my 2nd degree brown belt, a belt only two other people around my same age had tested for. My father encouraged me by saying, “You’re on track to becoming one the youngest black belts in your school!” I felt the pressure building up inside of me, the fear of failing this test was evolving. I stepped through the door of the karate school, which was still packed with younger students who just finished testing for their first belt. I walked to the back to take off my sandals, greet the others testing, and wait. Fifteen anxious minutes later, we were called out to stretch on the mats.

Imagine working, traing your whole life to finally get to that 1 fight. Imagine getting to that one night, fight night.. Image winning that fight that you have trained for your whole life. Then imagine getting your title stripped away. I was punished for what I believed in. I was on the top of the world, I was the athlete of century, but that all changed in the blink of and eye.

When I was a teenager, I was the best boxer of my group of five boxers. I won 50 of 54 amateur boxing matches, 43 by knockouts. I won the U.S. Amateur Athletic Union 175-pound championship in 1934 and also was a Golden gloves titleholder. When I won that the next day I walked

Admittedly I’m not the best wrestler, but my hard work ethic and determination is what makes me exceptional. At the 2015 regionals I lost my first match of the tournament which really brought my spirits down quite a lot. Going into my second match I knew if I lost my season would be done, and sectionals would be out of question for me. I ran out onto the mat, my heart is pounding through my chest. I didn’t want to let my parents and coaches down again. The match started and instinctively I grabbed my opponent’s leg and pinned him in 23 seconds. Winning this match put me into the finals for third place. When I ran onto the match for the finals match my heart dropped when I saw the guy who beat me come out to wrestle me. This meant I had to wrestle the guy that beat me to get into sectionals. The match started and he took me down, so I

The “Fight of the Century” between Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Manny Pacquiao shared similarities with the Fight of Last Century between Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries in terms of grandeur and publicity. The fight between Johnson and Jeffries was painted on a background of racism and is viewed as a key event in the struggle against white supremacy. However, with the U.S. striving to eliminate racism, Mayweather vs. Pacquiao was not centered on racial conflict. Nonetheless, the fight on May 2, 2015 contained ingredients of social justice issues. “Mayweather is Jack Johnson without a redeeming side. Johnson, despite a polarizing persona, at least inspired pride among black folk. Mayweather's violent history with women renders him a hip O.J. Simpson,

I have a lot of childhood memories that come back to me every time I think about them I smile and talk to my friends if they remember the good old days. The one that I remember the most was back in 2012, and it is the world's greatest youtube channel Angrynerds3400 if you ever want to go check it out. We made this channel because we thought it would be fun to become Internet famous and be really rich, but that didn't work out too well. Dylan Jenkins and I came up with the name, and that is where we took off. We got some of our friends to come over and we brainstormed a few ideas, but the first idea for our channel was the best thing ever.

Two items in my residence room that I value the most are my poster of Mike Tyson boxing and my framed picture of my Mom and I. Even though one of my items is simply a poster of someone I have never met, it carries a lot of significance. My father got me that poster of my favourite boxer. My father getting me that poster shows that he has finally accepted and is proud that I participate in boxing, which was something he was very hesitant of me doing at first because of the risk of injuries. Knowing my father supports me doing something I love means the world and as a result that is why I love that poster. The second item is more self-explanatory. The picture serves as a memory of my mother who helped get me to where I am at this point in my

Fighting sports has played a major role in my life. I have been doing boxing for over five years and it has taken me places that I would have never expected. I have met countless professional athletes such as Evander Holyfield, Olympic Gold Medalist - Vasyl Lomachenko, and Manny Pacquiao. I got into boxing as young as four years old because I would always watch the fights with my father and grandfather whenever anyone was fighting. When I first began boxing, I was still overweight and I had my first sparring match which is the same as a fight but, practice. Before sparring, I was not as nervous as you would think I would be. I was actually confident as I had prior fighting experience from taekwondo and I thought I would beat my opponent, however it was the complete opposite of what I had expected. My opponent that I had sparred was a bit more experienced than I was of course and the match was a mess. Blood was everywhere and it was living hell during those three-to-four rounds. At the end, I had learned from my mistakes and I am now better than ever. From years of training I have gotten to a much higher level of experience and I accomplished countless amounts of goals I have set for myself in the boxing world, however I still do get beat by others who still have more experience than I do as most of them have won countless tournaments such as the Golden Gloves and have over one-hundred fights. At the end of the day, I will always get better and will always push myself to achieve higher
