Boxers return is approaching quickly and i'm very happy to see the father of starcraft back on track.
Who cares about the robot players(the majority of the progamers these days) doing standard builds to perfection all day when you compare them to the man who made it possible for the very same kids to fulfill their dreams of becoming progamers?
It doesn't matter if Boxer succeeds or not. What matters is that he's there - playing against the best and playing for the team that he built up and made so succesfull - shaping the very best players to ever play professional starcraft.
What matters is that he's there - as a reminder of the past to the players, to the coaches and last but not least the fans -- a reminder to never forget the person who changed the way starcraft is played forever.
This is what SKT1 accomplished with Boxer:
2003 OnGameNet KTF EVERCup ProLeague - 1st Place 2003-2004 LG IBM MBC Team League - 1st Place 2004 SKY ProLeague - 2nd Place 2004 Tucsan MBCGame Team League - 1st Place 2005 SKY ProLeague R1 - 1st Place 2005 SKY ProLeague R2 - 1st Place 2005 SKY ProLeague Grand Final - 1st Place 2006 SKY ProLeague R1 - 1st Place
Boxer left and things got a bit worse, to say the least.
I started following the professional Starcraft scene a few years ago when a friend on msn linked me a Slayers_Boxer highlight video, well..the rest is history.
I'm a fan of Boxer beacuse here's a player who is one of the most famous e-athletes in history and is still humble, still creative, still passionate and still developing the way starcraft is played single-handedly more than 8 years after his progaming debut.

Be the Legend.
Lol July isn't going to do anything else for the rest of his life, why would he need to? He's a fat zerg with a Golden Mouse. He can just slump slump slump and be hand fed by tossgirl.
I really hope Boxer can make something of himself again though, even if he just stops losing to scrubs.

I didn't like how happy oov and some of the SK team members were after Best dominated Boxer with a very cheesy build in the proleagues recently, they should have been showing melancholy for RAPING THEIR GRANDPA after all the things he has done for them!
