Praying its obsession not a fad!

So I've been boxing lately. I have been boxing a lot. This is the first time in more than a decade I've been into any sports seriously and I am loving every second of it. I am constantly finding myself shadow boxing to see which angle my punches can land in what situation while making sure my face is covered. I'm constantly working out with my jab and not letting my face exposed as much as possible.
In short, I think I'm getting obsessed. While I know I'm not going to be like Marciano or Frazier, I definitely would like to get better at this sport. My only fear is that I hope I continue down this obsession and that this excitement for the sport isnt just a faze I'm going through because this is the first time I am truly having fun sweating and bleeding. I mean I am burning upwards of 2k calories and I'm not even burned out. Time is the only thing stopping me from going over 3k calories burned....I enter the boxing academy and it smells like sweat all over and I am enjoying it more and more because this is a reminder what I need to do in order to workout like the olympians that the very same academy have produced.
Not really sure what the point of the post is. I just felt like saying this out loud because I'm a single guy with no family and what not and just felt like saying these things out loud I guess
