Why would a rich dude like Broner give a homeless man $1000 and rob him for it??
thats hard to believe
Why would a rich dude like broner mug an old lady :dance:
Emmanuel Augustus on the right track could of been good
James Toney could of gone down as one of the best of all time if he kept himself in shape and out of burger king
Tim Bradley one of the most determined and hard working boxers in the sport today, The guy will say himself he hasn't got the skills to compete with the best so he will outwork them. The Pacquiao fight has been and gone forgive this guy :sad6:
They must have discussed about maybe going low against Matthysse if he gets hurt...
Hard to think straight when Lucas hurts you though. Garcia is going to feel it... let's see what he's made of.
I like Danny but its gonna be hard to withstand the power of Lucas for 12 rounds he gonna get caught at some point
Damn, It must suck being a boxer!
You lose once and your career is over...
1.5 mil for the fight. I don't they'll be eating spam and crackers anytime soon!
Win/Lose or Draw Angel will still be heading to the strippers :boobies: "We love the strippers"
I think Angel should be searched for a weapon cause I think he can go insane and just let lose once he realized his son career is over and back to eating spam on crackers and welfare checks.
This cant happen to Angel without his money he wont be able to go the Strippers and get wasted :alcoholic
Matthysse will win by DQ
When i think about this fight and the outcome i don't see Danny Garcia knocked out but i do see his Dad jumping in the ring and saving him from a vicious beating i think Angel would be like Paulie when Rocky fights Thunderlips he would take a Damn chair to Matthysse and bounce it off his head
I was there for the fight and did not know who Ishida was at the time. I went to get a beer and when I came back the fight was over
Why would you go get a beer during a James Kirkland fight :nonono: them fights be over quick. I don't feel Ishida was lucky if it was a 1 punch KO then it would of been luck but the guy dropped Kirkland 3 times so i don't feel it was luck
Congrates on the win!
Heres a few things to consider and correct that I feel are major contributors to your lack of power and accuracy.
Your back foot (right) is pointing to 3 o'clock when your moving to 12!! At times your toes are almost behind you, you NEVER turn (pivot) your right foot to be in coordination with your right hand!! The lack of your pivot doesn't allow your hips to be involved with your punch and your hips turning along with your shoulders turning and then pronating your hand makes you an arm puncher and theres no reason you can't correct these faults.
Your hands are carried to high, you have no peripheral vision and your body is open because your elbows stick out from your high hand positioning!
The elbows stinking out the way they do also gives away your punches, you lift them to get your punches away! (go the mirror and correct these faults)
Your very predictable from round to round!! You could have "caught his jabs and come right over it with your right hand with a hook behind that but you never applied anything new! Never punched the body either, I understand that many amatuer judges don't credit good body work but the reason to go to the body in a amatuer bout is to set up your combinations too!!
These are things you can correct in the mirror before you spar with the corrections. You will need your coach to see these corrections so you have "eyes outside" to remind you to use your new techniques!
When you start boxing at a young age it can become extremely difficult to "relearn" so I suggest you take your time and give yourself a chance to commit to relearning the correct posture to enable yourself to gain some extra pop and close up your defense of the body. This will take dedication on your behalf!
I trained amatuer & pro fighters for many years and was an Olympic Center (Colo. Springs Colo. USA) Trainer in the late 70s and early 80s. I'm telling you this so you know I have alot of experience training amatuer competitors and understand the differences between amatuer & pro boxing!! Best to you! Ray
Thanks a lot Ray it means a lot that you've took time out to give me some advice and corrections here. I can see exactly were your coming from i know i am flat footed a lot and the hands are a too high, its just bad habits am stuck into and i can work on correcting these things now the summer is coming up and the boxing season is closed also i understand what you mean about the body attack i will work on body punching in the gym and in sparring but for some reason when it comes to the fight i don't seem to throw anything down their. Thanks a lot for your advice Ray and i will take it all on board as we never stop learning and improving in this game. Thank you
A lot of what happens in the gym flies out the window in competition, tensions run high and sometimes your opponents nervousness can throw you off a little. I noticed you paw with the jab I can't tell what weight class you are in or you're height but based off your opponents size seems it like you're rangy, POP THAT JAB ! With authority ! It will be your best friend if you feel the need to kind of paw to find your range then throw a stiff jab and double or triple it.. Everything starts with the jab especially someone with your build also get those hands back to your chin after throwing and keep your chin tucked you appear to be a little upright and your body a little squared when you had his back on the ropes in some sequences... All that aside congrats on the win ... Very impressive you'll be just fine.
Your exactly right, ive seen many guys look good in the gym but when it comes to fight night nerves take over and they cant perform, I see what you mean about my jab ive been told this many times to throw it with authority and stiffen it up, am a tall rangy boxer for my weight which is between 54-57KG, thanks for your advice i'll be sure to work on stiffening that jab out and also tucking that chin down more. Thank you
I scored that fight a while back and had it a draw 113-113, Castillo got off to a slow start and didn't win a round until the 5th on my card, Mayweather was injured though and i believe that hindered his performance in the later stages.
berto's jab.
The straight shot like the power hand, if your orthodox its your right hand if your southpaw its your left. Sorry for the confusion am just used to hearing backhand in the boxing gym they call it that because its the hand at the back and your jab is the lead hand
what's a 'back hand'?

Good list but i'd have Murray at MW (He beat Martinez) and JMM at LW he can still make that weight IMO.
If JMM could make lightweight he would be champ definitely i just think hes a little too old now to be cutting the weight
