doe anyone do amateur boxing in college? the drinking and partying really effects working out. for those who box, can you still maintain in decent shape to compete? should i make a choice between competing or partying, or can make compromises between to two. just wondering if anyone with experience has any advice

I used to box during a lifestyle involving a lot of drinking and late nights, personally I found that during training it didn't matter so much (I trained about 5 to 6 hours a day anyway due to my job), but when you know you have a match coming up, ease off during the last week or two (depending on your fitness level) and you should be ok - although it's not ideal, and of course it's going to vary depending on your actual lifestyle, general fitness, and how much time you can commit to training.
