Boxing club, anyone?

As suggested here, I think we could all use some sort of healthy outlet for frustration. If we have that, we can focus on the overall goal better.

I tried speaking to the staff about this (yes, using their kind of psychobabble) and they shot it down. But it doesn't mean a few of us can't meet every so often at night to spar, or get a few matches in.

I'm more than happy to serve as leader for this little exercise. I'm Akihiko Sanada, and as others here can vouch, I've served as the captain of the Gekkoukan High School boxing team for the past several years. I'm ranked pretty highly nationally, and I'm proud of my skills. But that doesn't mean I don't welcome a chance to keep them honed.

We'll be following standard rules for this kind of thing, so no fighting dirty. And if you need a refresher course in those rules, let me know. I'll be happy to provide one.

Also, suggestions on a place would be welcome. I'd be willing to start this thing up tonight, if there's enough interest.

I've only just arrived, but I would be interested in participating. Would this be limited to boxing, or would you also include other forms of physical combat?

We could certainly expand it to other forms of physical combat, as the participants want. I'm most familiar with boxing, personally, but if other people want to teach their styles, it's fine by me.

I haven't been formally trained in any specific style, but I have received basic military instruction in hand-to-hand combat. They've dulled my reflexes here; I want to determine to what extent. This sounds like a good way to do so.

All right. When I get a meeting place and time nailed down, I'll let you know. Looking forward to it.
