I humbly ask for your feedback

You got a lot of great advice here so far i see...especially from MikeRo1972 and Rockin'. All i can say is stay off the ropes even in sparring. I mean, if you don't plan to fight off the ropes, why do it in sparring? Seems your wasting time that could be spent learning better habits, like footwork...that "back and forth" thing that Cotto does with his feet makes me nervous, for some reason. It seems to me i see him doing it when he starts having problems. I don't know why, but it just doesn't look useful to me. And i agree with not making noises when you throw or jab. It might help your opponent become aware of patterns you might have. i would only be repeating any other constructive criticism that's already been posted, but i say you're lookin' good...just keep in mind that bad habits are easy to make, and hard to break. Keep up the good work bud, and stay off the ropes! :drillserg thanks for the post :boxing:

So why do you want to move down in weight? Are you small at 140?? how tall are you? im 5'6 bro

pacquiao has gotten you pactards delusional azz fuk what? :thinking:

last time i fought was at a 140. im hoping to go down to 130-135 but cant seem to lose the remaining weight i carry So why do you want to move down in weight? Are you small at 140?? how tall are you?

What's your amateur record, and which weight class you at? You done pretty well, better than most cats who like to think their good on here! last time i fought was at a 140. im hoping to go down to 130-135 but cant seem to lose the remaining weight i carry

im not very satisfied with my physique to be honest well the first thing is to trim off the fat, dont go straight for bigger more prominent muscles, lose the fat, then start eating, drink plenty of milk and eat plenty of chicken, easy work then

Oscar says natural movements, like push ups, pull ups, sit ups, that type of thing helps. Pavlik says a lot of his strength training is hitting a giant tire with a sledgehammer... they did a lot of commentary on how that built his muscles to be loose and long as opposed to Miranda, who had the real buff looking body build, and... well you know how that match turned out. You are more of a speed guy it looks like, so you want to have the longer, looser muscles, so it doesn't compromise your speed. how many pushups do i have to make?

what do you need to build muscle for? eat more, and you'll get more muscles, boxing training should consist of pullups, pushups and all sorts of plyometrics and calisthenics im not very satisfied with my physique to be honest

so how will i build muscles? Oscar says natural movements, like push ups, pull ups, sit ups, that type of thing helps.

I would avoid it. Everything I have heard is that it doesn't really help with boxing related activities, and it will slow you down. That video I posted of Oscar giving tips talks about it more in depth. so how will i build muscles?

what do you guys think about weight lifting? I would avoid it. Everything I have heard is that it doesn't really help with boxing related activities, and it will slow you down. That video I posted of Oscar giving tips talks about it more in depth.

honestly???? get better video quality! lol, jk, looks like you got a good foundation and set of skills. one thing i did notice, even though you are sparring and i don't know if you were exhausted or not or if it was the first thing you did in the day, but the only thing that I saw in the short 1:34 video was that you were waiting on the guy sometimes and when you did, you got the worst of it, but when you lead and didnt' wait you looked really good. foot work seems on point and your balance seemed pretty well, also, you didn't look awkward in there, keep up the good work. no i wasnt exhausted at all man. i can easily spar 4rds or go 6rds if i wanted to

man im glad to be a member of boxingscene. i learn a lot of things here, thanks for all the input peeps

Not bad at all. I'll tell you what's good and bad. The good: 1)You have crisp strikes, sure you make a few errors here and there but they're real good. 2)Foot movement, you have good foot movement. The bad: 1)Semi to no head movement, if the guy was right handed, you were going into his power side(left), with no head movement depending how fast the guy was he could of easily hit you with an over hand right. Watch out for that. 2)Committing too much to that right hand, I suggest keeping a variety of strikes, including using left hooks/uppercuts more often. 3)You have ring control, use it. Don't get caught up in the ropes. Keep up the good work bro, you're good.

im the guy with a shirt on. i apologize for the poor vid quality honestly???? get better video quality! lol, jk, looks like you got a good foundation and set of skills. one thing i did notice, even though you are sparring and i don't know if you were exhausted or not or if it was the first thing you did in the day, but the only thing that I saw in the short 1:34 video was that you were waiting on the guy sometimes and when you did, you got the worst of it, but when you lead and didnt' wait you looked really good. foot work seems on point and your balance seemed pretty well, also, you didn't look awkward in there, keep up the good work.

nice movement, you let your hands go acouple of times. Pretty good man. While you have good movement you never did anything with it. You would exchange, move and wait for him to punch you acouple of times before doing anything and then moving again and waiting again to take the same 2 shots before throwing back. Get off first, I know you hear it alot, and get of often. Now the guy was bigger so I understand the respect thing, but keep them big guys busy thinking about having to defend themselves and not of offensive schemes, and then you move out leaving with a jab. Don't wait for him, let one go then use your feet and find the range. Waiting for a fighter to deliver first is not a great habit. Oh yeah, that stuff where you get a certain distance away and you bounce up and down on your toes after exchanging, lose it. It would take less than a second for his fist to reach you, if your in the air during one of your cute little bounces it can cost you. Good job, I'm interested in seeing more...........Rockin':boxing: so whenever i get on the ropes, i would have to throw my combinations? Pretty good bro,two things i did pick up though are that you fall in when throwing your right hand dont do that,also stay off of the ropes.you have a nice looking jab the only flaw i see is you need to sit down on it a little more,and when moving work on your laterall movement pop that jab step over and blast him to the body or the head.As my trainer used to tell me quit back peddling and turn that mothaphucka. im practicing my right straight bro. for some reason im having a hard time putting power on my right straight without semi falling specially when i try to switch my hips when throwing a power shot. you got any idea why?
