      yeah man. i feel ya.

        I once got a chance to turn pro but they wanted to match me with this little known kid from New York. At the time he was 6-0. The promoter thought that I wouldn't have heard of him - his name was Paulie Malinaggi. To be honest I seriously thought about it even though I knew that Paulie would have knocked me silly.

        Thanks to age and genetics, I now weight 180.
        You should have done it, that would always be an interesting story. Back then before his hands were constantly broken he probably had more pop.

          ha ha it was mainly a joke, but I spent my childhood on the west coast in california and now reside in the UK. I would say not necessarily Brits but European's in general are definitely more health conscious and yeah generally more fit, that obviously includes the whole population not just athletic people. Yeah I find it very hard to diet, in America it is even harder as there are much more outlets and opportunities to indulge in junk food.

              My lead right hand will be the key to my victory.

                I am in weighing in at a strong 186. After this week of debauchery, paddys day and start of the ncaa tourney ill probably be up to195. I couldnt make 175 if i was locked ina cage with nothing to eat. Ill probably eat my face off get up to about 230-240. Then hit the gym hard for 3 or 4 days and be ready to campaign at hw.

                  My body is almost identical to Kelly Pavlik's, except I'm 6'1 and he's 6'2. The big difference is he is 160 and I walk around at 155. I'm 26, and my weight usually doesn't drift away from 155 more then 2-3 lbs. I think I could be in great shape at 154. I even think, as skinny as I am, I could get down to a reasonably cut 147. I box for fun, with friends, but I have thought about going into a gym soon and really testing what I have, even if I am a little old to start.

                    I suppose I'm really a cruiserweight. I'd be a walking corpse at Light heavy. They really need a weight class with a 188 limit or something. There's a 130, 135 and a 140 yet I've gotta either fight 200 pounders or drain to 175? Shennanigans.

                      You need to take on Enzo Macca. If you can stop him then go on to fight Monte Barret. If you can stop him then you might find yourself taking a shot at top dog.. Those aren't the toughest 2 fights ever.. I think you can do it if you can party ways with Bud Light.
