Lucky you to have decent lighting.
I've done this sort of venue, and the lighting was VERY limited. No flash allowed of course.

I was used to pro level boxers mixing it up in the ring. Compared to the speed and intensity of these kids, the pros are moving in slow motion.

Nice captures. Until you've tried this, you have no idea how difficult it can be.

I have never shot boxing before this. I was suprised by two things: the good lighting and the speed of these kids. They only sparred short rounds but boy during that time they flailed away at each other. It wore me out trying to keep up with them and the camera focused. I think I was more tired than the kids after each round.

Thanks for the compliments.

Bob
