I learned the hard way not to mess with a Marine

I am just an ordinary humbled Civilian here to tell me story on just how great our troops are...



I'm 40 years old and I have been competing in strongman competitions for 20 years, I have been lifting weights since I was 9.. I'm 6'5 and 300 lbs.. I occasionally do boxing for a local amateur league in my town.. it helps that I'm 3 times the size of my opponents for the most part.. I always felt I was invincible until I was matched up in the ring against a young 19 year old Marine from Boston who is no bigger then 5'10 and about 190 lbs.. I thought I could take him since he was tiny next to me.. but I was dead wrong.. he toyed with me for a minute, and then it got serious.. his punches felt like death and I became scared for my life.. I was kissing his feet.. he broke my jaw and cheek bone and they had to stop the fight to save me.. the fight lasted less then 2 minutes, the longest two minutes ever for me... HE COULD HAVE ENDED MY LIFE IN THAT FIGHT IF HE WANTED TO AND I COULD NOT HAVE STOPPED HIM... I was just so glad when it was over... What hard lesson learned.. never mess with one of our trained soldiers.. they are trained warriors and even I am no match. I forever bow my knee to them
