Kirkland laid the pipe on ol Annie,that's how he got his nickname.
Wouldn't be surprised that's Kirklands kid but the guy is too ****ed up to take care of him so Wolf is looking out for him.
Dykes take pipe too on the low.
Blue clearly won based on clean shots.
Now I gotta wonder for the rest of my life if Wolfe and Kirkland have ****ed before.
Ann clearly has fvcked Kirkland and Kirkland was the bottom..Wolfe is the dominate one in their relationship
Anne wolf treats training fighters similar to that of a dog fighter training his dogs for a dog fight. I don't know why any fighter would willingly train with her? she could very well shorten a fighters career.
This poor child!
I'm of the mind that kids are totally pussified and weak today. That said, this is the type of thing that creates behavioral health issues. That headgear isn't keeping the brain from getting jarred around inside the skull and at such a tender age, when the brain is going through crucial stages of development, this is just a terrible idea. Teach him to hit a bag but don't have him taking shots at 5 years old.
Are they really hitting that hard though?
I'm sure Wolf will go on to do harmful things with her son. I'd be worried about that. There is no doubt in my mind Kirkland is brain damaged and his chin is destroyed because Wolf thinks it's a smart idea to kill her fighters in training to make them tough. I thibk she's an awful trainer. I'd be worried for her son.
Yeah seeing clips of Wolfe training he adult fighters makes it worrying.
Don't know how hard they're hitting but it looks like full contact between 2 kids who just learned how to walk. If they keep it up by the time they're 15 they'll be weathered like a seasoned professional. A decade of getting their heads dribbled.
Way too young for full contact sparring IMO. Look at all the terrible habits they're forming too. What's the point?
Kids are both gonna be semi braindead by their teenage years Good luck with that.

Best time for kids to learn Imo. Hardest part about boxing is being comfortable and reacting to getting punched in the face. Kids don't hit hard enough to where it truly damages you.
Though with that kid being Ann Wolf's son, he's not gonna have a choice.
I've seen young kids sparring and I don't think it's a big deal.
But these kids aren't learning ****, there just standing in front if each other swinging away.
I would not trust Wolfe training young kids. Her style isn't built for that.
I was traveling once. In Indiana iirc. And saw a sign for amateur boxing one night. Said f#ck it. Lemme stop & check this out. It was a whole card of lil kids probably 5-12yrs old. The best part & the part I'll never forget is there was a kid named Salvador Sanchez who I think was 6 or 7 & he started crying midway thru his fight.
I don't really see this as any different then tackle football leagues for lil kids. Should we nerf the world for kids? Maybe, but I think there are plenty of kids who enjoy this sort of activity & its ultimately keeping them on a positive path mentally, competitively & health-wise that bring more positive things than negative things overall. That said if kids are getting concussions & **** like can happen in the extreme I think you need to pull the kid out of this sorta activity in light of all we've learned about concussions only fairly recently.
A good age to start is 8-10 yrs. You need to be old enough to be able to focus and concentrate on the concept of the game and really understand technique, etc., it's a good age to start sparring and do am competition. I started at 14 and fought am until mid 20s.
