Share your story

Tell us about a moment in training, boxing or physical strength that changed how you saw yourself. We want to hear what happened, in your own words.

How we should address you. You choose separately how your name appears if we publish.

Used only to contact you about your story.

Roughly 500–1,500 words. It does not need to be polished; it does need to be true.

Submit a photo only if you want it published and have the right to share it.

What happens next

  1. You send it. It goes to an editor, not straight onto the site.
  2. We read it. We aim to reply within two weeks either way.
  3. We edit for clarity and length — never to change what you meant.
  4. You approve it. Nothing is published until you have seen the final version and said yes.

Questions people ask

Can I stay anonymous?

Yes. Full name, first name, initials or anonymous — your choice, and you can change your mind before publication.

Does it have to be about boxing?

It must involve training, boxing or physical strength, and what it changed for you. That is the focus of this publication.

What if you do not publish mine?

Stories are curated, so we cannot publish every submission. We will reply either way, and you are welcome to send another.

Can I change or remove it later?

Yes. Email andrew@balazsboxing.com and we will update or take it down. The story remains yours.
