Mark Wahlberg recently revealed that his 4 year old son Michael has become a hug boxing fan and can’t get enough of it.
On his recent appearance onJimmy Kimmel Live, Mark told stories about how his son Michael has gotten “obsessed” with boxing. “My son is obsessed with boxing. I took him to see Manny Pacquiao yesterday at the Wild Card Gym [in Hollywood]. I have a boxing ring at home because I did [the film The Fighter], so I put up a ring in my backyard. As soon as we got home he wanted to go in the ring and just pound the crap out of me. And we did that again today. He puts on the gloves, he tells me to get on my hands and my knees and put my hands behind my back and he just punches me as hard as he can.”
The actor admitted that he may be in trouble though as Michael gets older. He said, “Fun for him, not for me. The kid’s starting to hit hard, I had a bit of a headache.”
He also revealed that he is trying to teach his son when to hit and when not to hit after “getting a call from a teacher.” Mark revealed, “We’ve actually had that call once and now he knows that it’s only play with daddy, in the ring, and that’s it.”
Mark and his wife Rhea Durham have three other children, Ella, 6, Brendon, 1, and Grace, 1 month.
