Sydney Olympic Park

The place I will be writing about is a sporting complex that I regularly go to for myself tennis training. It has a great history and is, in my opinion, one of the best sporting venues in Australia. I am sure you will like it too.

Sydney Olympic park is a large sporting, cultural and leisure complex located in Western Sydney. The area was redeveloped for the 2000 Olympic Games. Sydney Olympic Park contains 9 different venues of which arenas, stadiums and more. It also has a lot of capacity for spectators to come watch the sport events.

It has become a business centre as well with quite a lot of famous hotels, companies where people have jobs and even apartments to live in.

Sydney Olympic Park is an Olympic village which has been very well redeveloped over time and uses the professional facilities for the younger athletes to, maybe, one day participate in an Olympic event.

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.
