Dickinson, Texas heavyweight boxer,
Eugene "Mean Gene" Hill spends his mid-mornings training for two
hours at Savannah's Boxing Gym in nearby Houston. The trip back and forth which
he makes several times a week is different from the trips many commuters make
each day to work. The time he spends training, last only for a few hours but
every moment is precious to Eugene because at one point, he thought these
moments would never happen again.
"I tore my rotator cuff in my
last bout. I couldn't even lift my arm above my chest at one point. I was
literally a one armed man with two arms." says Eugene. "It is a
difficult thing to think you just won the WBF international Heavyweight Title
and you may never get the chance to defend it. This may be it. I can't even
really explain how I felt after winning and afraid that I lost. Even after I
had surgery, I was still scared that I may never return to the ring."
Eugene who returns to the ring this
March, for the first time since his surgery has put the both the injury and the
fear behind him. "I haven't fought in over a year and I have been training
over time to catch up on missed time. I feel faster and more confident than I
have in a long time. I feel like after everything, I can focus once again on my
career and continue building a name for myself. I think being injured taught me
one thing and that is we forget as athletes that we break just like everyone
else and that our lives are different outside of the ring. When you can no
longer punch, what does a boxer do? I'm glad that I don't have to answer that
question right now. I'm very thankful for that."

ReplyDeleteWhile picking the correct gloves for boxing there are numerous things that become possibly the most important factor when at long last settling on a glove that fits your own needs. As of late I've had the opportunity to get some Protex2 boxing gloves. Puncher
