Here I am almost 70 years old and you're the first guy I've met who was a boxer.
I salute you.
How did you get started...?

Thank you, but I never made it professionally. I started 8 years ago. I loved boxing since I was in high school. I belonged to a gym that taught it. They had a real ring and competitions. I decided to give it a shot. However, since I prefer to do push myself, I only boxed people who were better than me. I had no interest in trying to get a great record or something. I just wanted to get good. So, I lost most of my fights, but I am okay with that, because I learned more. If I had later decided to fight people at my level, then I would have probably laid them all out.
