Question

Is it possible to practice and get decently good at Boxing without getting a trainer and paying lots of money?

Answer 1

Yes, it's very possible to do it cheaply actually. Just work hard and join a real boxing gym. If you do excellent on the bags, it will only be a matter of time before a former-fighter/trainer picks you up for free and gives you his heart and soul in hopes that you will be his first world champion fighter.

Without a good boxing trainer, it's very hard if no impossible. You will have to spar maybe 5 times as much to learn to teach yourself the same techniques. Other boxers will have an advantage since they are giving expert instruction that took years to craft.
