How to get on the marine corps boxing team?
1. How to get on the Marine Corps Boxing team. You send in your resume , listing your boxing accomplishments. IE: how many State Golden Glove Championships, how you placed in the US National Championship, How you placed in the Olympic trials, What your ranking in Nationally in your weight class. IE: you have to be more than good, you have to be great and proven you are great. 2. The Marine Corps boxing team, is just a temporary team, its not like its a full time position. They will train for about a couple of weeks before the inter service boxing championships, that's it. 3. The Marines who train daily, are members of the Elite Athlete program, IE: those ranked in the top 8 in the world, at their sport. But even they must still do their day job and train after hours.
Why do People in the Military section think that special forces will defeat Pro Fighters in a Boxing match?
I notice when you ask a question of Special Forces VS Boxer,Kickboxer, MMA Fighter, etc. in a Boxing Match/MMA Fight, military people especially people from the military section always yelling how Special forces will win the Boxer, MMA Fighter Etc. in a Boxing/MMA Ring because they are trained to kill as opposed to Boxers,MMA, ETC. who are trained to fight. Uhh, the questions said BOXING MATCH OR MMA MATCH OR A FIGHT IN A BOXING/MMA RING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I agree that special forces may be able to kill Boxers and other pro fighters on the streets or combat zones, but these questions are asking in a fight scenarios between special forces and boxers under a ring setting with rules not street fights!Here are two such questions where military people barged in bragging that special forces would defeat the Boxer ETC. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100722141232AAMOgqg&pa=FZB6NXXtFWMW0cLWweMc9FrfbCzr.9mnqS5AUHizMQq090r3p5w-&paid=add_watch http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100722142034AAcwgnC&pa=FZB6NXXtFWMW0cLWweMc9FrfbSPr.9mnEcsxxeosrH2tVEmTgFA-&paid=add_watch How come military people believe special forces would defeat any other fighters in any circumstances including ring fights?I mean sure special forces are trained to kill but they will easily get pawned in a pro fight with rules such as a boxing match! Anybody that fights for a living including those who rarely use punches/boxing techniques at all such as TKD masters and Muay Thai fighters will easily pawn Special Forces in MMA as most Special Forces punch like ****! Most Special Forces just suck so badly at defending against hooks and other boxing/punching techniques and are just horribly sloppy at executing basic boxing/punching techniques like jabs and uppercuts! Why do people think Special Forces could easily win Boxing and MMA matches and other fighting sports just because they know how to kill?Two different things, apples and oranges! I could punch MUCH MUCH HARDER than 95% of the Special Forces out there and so could every amateur boxer/MMA fighter who participates in Yahoo Answers and I know I can easily pawn 90% of Special Forces in a Boxing match and so could every amateur boxer/MMA fighter who participates in Yahoo Answers!
Boxing (sport): Who would win in a fight (to the death) between a professional UFC fighter, a pro heavyweight boxer (Mike Tyson at his best) and a Navy Seal?
a) A UFC fighter spends about 25 hours a week or more devoted to making himself better at beating his opponent with his fists, knees, elbows, feet, and submissions. His training is focused EXCLUSIVELY on unarmed combat using strikes and submissions. In a year that is roughly 1300 or more hours of training.b) A professional boxer spends about 25 hours a week or more devoted to making himself better at beating his opponents with his fists. His training is focused EXCLUSIVELY on unarmed striking combat. In a year that is roughly 1300 or more hours of training.c) A Navy Seal may spend an hour a week on unarmed combat training. In a year that is roughly 52 hours devoted to unarmed combat. That's because Navy Seal has to know how to do the following: foreign language trainingtactical communications trainingweapons trainingmilitary free-fall parachutingHALO jumpingtraining for their specialization: sniper, assault, heavy weapons, communications, medic, breachercombat diving Unarmed combat is simply not an important asset for a Navy Seal, and subsequently the average Seal is not going to be able to devote enough time training in it to be competitive with either a UFC fighter or a Boxer who may have spent 25x as much time in unarmed combat training than the Seal has.UFC fighter > boxer > Seal in an unarmed combat situationI'm not sure how a "fight to the death" will change anything if none of the participants are given weapons. Most people, in a life-and-death situation will do whatever it takes to survive. Elite-level professional fighters who have the raw grit to take on a profession where they are expected to do as much damage as possible to their opponents, should be even more likely to do so.A UFC fighter has the training to easily kill a man with his bare hands, chokeholds, kicks, and other submissions. A boxer has the training to kill a man with his bare hands, and although not particularly trained in submissions, can still strangle an opponent to death.Last note, there are other answers that state that Navy Seals can use eye gouging, knee-kicking, groin strikes, or other myriad "dirty strikes" to win. This relies on the assumption that the UFC fighter and boxer are somehow magically unable to foresee or execute these moves themselves in a fight to the death.
