I am considering taking boxing lessons. I am a meek person. I dont like confrontations. I tried Tai Kwan Do and Jiu-Jitsu for a while. I wasnt very good at them. After taking lessons for a while, I did not feel any more prepared for a fight. Boxing seems like it is more direct and to the point of fighting. I was thinking that with boxing, I might learn how to deal with punches being thrown at me. Maybe I would not be as afraid of threatening people.
