This is why we’re reporters, not boxers (Video)

NorthernLife.ca’s reporters have tried a few fun things to amuse you as part of our Staff Tries videos.

Heidi Ulrichsen learned to beat box and showed off her saxophone skills.Mark Gentili tried his hand at ring-announcing a professional wrestling show. And Matt Durnan nearly got beat by a pre-pubescent rock climber.

Now, Durnan’s back for another Staff Tries.

This time, Gord Apolloni at Top Glove Boxing Academy invited us to take advantage of his prodigious knowledge of the pugilistic arts — by putting a reporter through his or her paces and letting them get knocked around the ring a little bit.

Durnan, we think, won’t be leaving NorthernLife.ca anytime soon to pursue a career in boxing.

We really appreciate Apolloni and the Top Glove crew for giving us the run of the place and being so accommodating.

Enjoy the video. If you have any suggestions of things you would like to see our reporters try, let us know in the comments below.
