I got to shoot ring side at an amateur boxing tournament called Battle of the Badges. The tournament fighters were either police officers, corrections officers, or fire fighters. I've never been to an event like this before let alone be so close to the action. There were moments when the boxers ran into the ropes right in front of my face. It was a very awesome experience. I like this shot a lot because of the blow the guy's face was so hard you can see the sweat coming off his head.
