@@st1lstaytrue1life82 But it is there. Go into any boxing club and you will find that culture of respect. Our club's motto is "Family Isn't Always Blood" and it's something that they try to instill with the young members.
Respect is a rare thing these days unfortunately. Combat sports is the one thing that makes everyone equal whether that be training hard or getting back up when you've been knocked down. No hard feelings after the fight too 🇭🇰🇬🇧
❤ boxed at 18, and now I'm back at 48 and it's the best damn thing I ever did for myself. I googled my old trainer from when I was a kid. He was an amateur champion in his time. He held the record for the oldest amateur champion. He never told me that. He told me " Bobby, u hit so hard Bobby!". Would pick me up in his car for my fights. Would lol pick me up with a six pack of beer and get me out of my parents abusive home. He was a great man! Thank you coach William J. Webb. I miss you and u inspired me more then you will ever know. A dream for me is to train lil kids and teens in boxing. Show them what it feels like to have someone give a sh!t about them.... Get them to have just one win in the ring to feel that champion inside them. 🙏🤘
I'm 31 years old, I started boxing at the age of 28. The best thing that ever happened to me. A boost of self-confidence, great cardio, great new friends. Even men over 50 years of age come and start their adventure. It's never too late. "How much can you know about yourself if you've never had a fight?" Great sport.
This man is an absolute motivator! I am 56 yrs old and workout everyday, including heavy bag and shadowing three times a week. The years are going by fast. 20 plus years from now, I hope I am still getting after it like Frank.
Very wise and factual information. I started boxing at age 68 and still compete as an amateur at age 73. It's doable!! The health benefits are through the roof!!
GOD BLESS this man, most old-timers (even youngsters) are complaining about their health while he's still slugging it out, what an inspiration. He proves that age is just a number, and that you're never too old to learn something new or start training.
"Boxing should be clean, and full of integrity and authenticity, and it's not at the moment." It's easy to say "If only we had more people like Frank in the highest levels of boxing, then it would be." Perhaps this is true. Maybe we don't have people like Frank at the top, but I think that we're perhaps more blessed that we have Frank at the bottom, helping those who really need the friendship, community and purpose that boxing provides. Thanks Frank for your decades of work, God bless you.
Mr. Gifeatther, My name is Opel and live in US as an immigrant but was born in Thailand and trying to move to Japan. I love the way you are and Moral that you have in your life. Because now this days people in this world is different of less in effort more of fake status and no quality. I lost my wife to cancer of battling it for 3 years,October last year that when her body gives up. We were together for 24 for each other with one son.I’ve been trying to strong and learn how to live again.I did start to boxing and helped me so much to deal with my sorrow.I started watched you in instagram and I wish I have a teacher like you to train me, it would be my honor to meet someone like you. 🍀Good health and happiness to you and your family form me Sanith Sirichandhra (Opel) sorry my English is not good 🙏
Keep going my brother… never give up, you sound like a courageous man. Opel you are also a role model my friend with love and respect. Tana from Australia
@opel Thank you for your message. You have demonstrated tremendous courage and faith and I wish you well as you continue to use boxing to help stabalise your life. Frank
My grandfather use to be a boxer, he trained untill his 80 years old, just cancer beated him at the end. He wasn´t exactly a good men but really tried to do his best for his family and hia students. In the funeral crowds of people where there for the last goodbye, some of his students where wearing sporting clothes, I couldn´t believ the kind of respect and honour he achiev it in life.
Im 66 and started boxing training last year. Not only am I in the best shape of my life but it's done wonders for my self-confidence and mental well being. It's never too late.
Joined my local boxing club a month ago as a 59 yr old in decent nick. Wish Id done it earlier, played good level rugby and this gives me the same sense of brotherhood. Guys so friendly and welcoming. It is indeed a noble art.
Reading this as an ex ABA carded fighter (Light welter). Nearly 40, Overweight, over 100 kgs... last fight was 6 years ago. I need to get my head out of my Arse and remember what boxing gave me.... It changed my life.
Beautiful and heartfelt. Immediately drawn to him when he said 'Lead by example'. A wonderful Catholic priest told me the same when I was trying to show someone the way.. God bless everyone
It brings me a sense of hope, when I see younger people immersed in conversation with people of this generation. Particularly great men like Frank. The ethical influences developed through living a full life. It presents itself in a mans empathy for others
I just watched a video of you talking about Amanda Serrano, THANKS for it and it means a lot! Puerto Rica had and have a lot of great bóxer historia! God Bless You Sir!
When listening to him and his passion for boxing brings me back to my childhood. It wasn't perfect, I never had a coach, but the part where he reflected on what a boxing bag was made of hit deep. Rocky the movie taught me simple running, shadow boxing, and push-ups and my school bag was my first gym. Left, right 100 times was my staple, then I watched old boxing clips, and then we had our own champions here in my country, Jimmy Thunder and David Tua, and then for me Oscar Delahoia. Love this clip.
Wow, his nose is pronounced & straight after boxing all those years! Must've had great head movement, slips & angles. My nose is lopsided & my dad's was smooshed! What a fine gentleman & human being. I wish every gym & every fighter would adhere to his life & message.🥲
I never really followed boxing because I just thought it was people just trying to smash each other's heads in but since my son started boxing 3 years ago I have a more understanding about it. The skill, the fitness, the discipline,the hard work, and the comradery. I've got the greatest respect for anyone who takes part in the sport from the contenders and the staff.
I truly believe Sir Frank is a living legend and he will be remembered as one of the greats in the sport of boxing. He is a CHAMPION OF LIFE. Respect from your Cuban fan in Miami, Florida 🥊🥊🥊
Anyone who don't love this has got to be dense! Kudos to the man and the filmmaker! Me, I'm 70 yrs old and have trouble skipping rope, knees and all, but this guy, man! Love to everyone...
Thank you so much for sharing Frank's story. This is exactly what the world is missing right now - Imagine if we could get back to these ideals and values?~!!
Love the track “Funny how time flys when you’re havin fun”JJ❤️❤️goes perfectly with the video 80s an 90s the best eva early 2000s was good too after internet shit started changing but love the video stepping back in time just for a moment brings back the warm and fuzzy feeling love it ❤️🙏 🙂
I love and will always respect the knowledge and wisdom of the true boxing trainers of the world. They’ve been there and done it at times when men were truly men.
Great insights into life and training and inspiring words about being a man from a person who is so obviously a great teacher and real stand up Man. Huge respect Mr. Gilfeather.
“A champion is someone who gives back” powerful words my friend. These are the people who make the world a better place for other people. Not the people who make it a worse place to benefit themselves.
Ależ mądre słowa, dzieciaki powinny oglądać tego typu materiały zamiast konferencje prasowe jakichś idiotów udających wojowników. Dziękuję za ten materiał ✌️&❤
I have been to a seminar with this guy and let me just say, an absolute gentleman and Franks knowledge in the world of boxing is incredible, amazing teacher.
A dieing Trade Boxing Men like this Fellow who speaks the Truth.. Greed and modern day Technology is killing it (Hearns.. Warren) Respect and Love to him and his works💙
This is why I hate "Influencer" boxing. It takes nothing from, the sport except for money and that is not boxing. This is amazing and this is the story that needs to be told so youngsters can get into the sport.
My first ever boxing coach was more like a father or uncle to us and made sure we attended school and always said please thank you in the gym. Looking back I think he could see through us and knew some of us were having difficulties at home He was more of a life teacher than boxing coach I always remember him telling us what he earned from his first professional fight in the early 1900s-a goat,and he was terrified of it and sold it to pay his fare back from Dumbarton that night. Rip Charlie kerry I was never going to be a great fighter but it didn't matter to him or me and looking back I always wonder how many lives he changed and saved
"It does not matter that you did not win a fight, ot did not matter of you are not interested in competition!!🎉 ❤ This is a true sportsman!!❤ 🎉 Great statement.
Thank you Mr Gilfeather for sharing your knowledge, wisdom and humanity...Inspirational I'm 61 and never boxed in my life, but would like to try the noble art of boxing/being part of the boxing family. Any advice on where to start would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Many thanks
This man is the definition of being human. Kind, giving, and selfless. This is the quality of a real man, and most importantly a REAL person.
This gentleman comes from a time where honour and valuing each other mattered
Long gone now and it ain't coming back anytime soon. 💯

You cannot box past 35 yo as an amateur.
