The Boxer and Sportsman

Part 2

Mandela joined the D.O.( Donaldson Orlando Community Centre) gym in 1950, he often took his oldest son 10-year-old Thembi, with him. Nelson Mandela never did any fighting after he entered politics. He's main interest in boxing was the training, he found the training a way of releasing tension and stress. While he was imprisoned in a small cell on Robbern island he was able to maintain a physical-fitness routine.

  1. The other thing I found quite interesting about Mandela as a sportsman and boxer is that he's main interested in as a boxer was the training and that he found training a way of releasing tension and stress.
