The Sydney Student Times is a new kind of online magazine. It was produced thanks to the combined efforts of a group of Year 11 students from the Lycée Condorcet Sydney during a few hours of English class time using the IT equipment provided by the school.

It is the students themselves who collectively chose the name of the magazine, decided on the table of contents and wrote the articles you will soon be reading yourself.

Before the publication of this first online issue, very little editing was done. The articles were proofread by the students themselves and only the most obvious remaining mistakes were weeded out by me. The articles within therefore reflect the writing skills -and difficulties- of the students who wrote them but also their particular interests.

Because there are so many different articles to pick from, from in-depth articles on current affairs to book reviews, I feel sure that there is something in this online magazine for you too 

Enjoy your read!

The Editor

1/Training

The training of a boxer as the goal to push himself to the limit of his body resistance. Series of stick hitting, dodging and repetition of shadow boxing are one of the main part of the “hard training”. In a second attempt, the fighter just have to practise his speed and agility, he does not have to be predictable by his opponent and close enough to move around without being touched .

 

2/ Boxing business

The richest sportsmen who ever lived is a boxer (Floyd Mayweather, 75 millions). Although, boxing became more than just a fight between two trained fighters. It is also a international event that is watch by millions of peoples on TV. It includes a lot of money for both of the fighters, with thousands of bets on the prediction of the fight. In every categories (welterweight, lightweight, heavyweight), there are titles that every fighters are trained for, and those titles bring the fighter to the top of his division.
