There aren't many good boxing polls around here, so just answer as best as you can! This is the guys only version, the alternate version will come soon. Side Questions are not required, but for fun.

11% (6) No

If you chose no, why haven't you? For the sake of this poll, just make up stuff from here on out.

9% (1) Afraid of getting hurt, potentially injuring myself in major ways.
27% (3) Haven't found a girl who wants to box me, whether it be because they don't like boxing or just don't want to.

11 voters have answered this question.

If you chose yes, what type of fight was it?

41% (22) For Fun: We were hanging out, got bored, and decided to box. Plain and simple. If it wasn't so plain and simple, or just plain hilarious, elaborate.
20% (11) For Glory: We were having the age old, 'who's stronger' debate, and just had to settle it through boxing because arm wrestling is for wimps. Explain if you'd like.
13% (7) Professional Fight: Boxing gym, sparring match. OR In a group of friends, having a tournament or something similar and you got pitted against her. You can tell me about it if you want.
5% (3) Grudge Match: Your everyday 'I-will-kill-you-and-embarrass-you-in-every-way-possible type fight, no messing around. How did it start?
5% (3) Random: Whimsical, random. You were there, she was there. You saw boxing gloves, then boom. What caused it?
13% (7) Other: Specify
