this is my 4th bout i had on friday, any help and tips would be appreciated.
i felt quite sluggish in this bout and didnt keep my hands up at all, also i need to stop putting my head down when i get in close, but its a learning curve :)

Alright cool. What weight was this? I haven't watched it yet.

I was talking to someone from a new club near sunderland somewhere at my last bout and he was saying how hard it was to get fights as they don't know anyone or have any contacts which sucked for them.

:lol1: We have a 13 year old who is 80kg and a 14 year old at 82kg. But, they get quite a lot of fights. Little fat ****s though. I've had 12 bouts.

Good fight mate. Kid had no answer to your jab. You need to use some parrying more and keep your hands up more. But, that last round won you the fight. All down to fitness. Did well out there man. Bit reckless in last round but still used your reach well and got some good counter hooks in.

It reminded me of where in the Floyd V Zab fight floyd was like that on the ropes off balance and still ducked under the punch. It would have been worse if he had walked off and just stared at you. Like 'what you doing' kinda look.

Np mate.
