lol..floyd jr aint perfect but if senior didnt have him into boxing..the way floyd loves money hed most likely be a drug dealer..his pops sold drugs and didnt want that for his kids..and i dont want that for mine either..boxing is where its at

Make sure your kids focus on defense like Mayweather Jr., you don't want them to end up like Ali....

Definately after your 1st fight.

Train all you want...until you hit the ring for your 1st fight...your just "training to be a boxer"

Who cares about living the lifestyle of a boxer....whether its in a 1 room hut or a 10 bedroom mansion....boxers should live/eat/breathe the gym.

Sparring is just that...sparring.

Good luck to you and your son! For real for real!

thanks alot

where i came from, a boxer is a tight-fisted guy. hold his money only to himself...

Okay, this is Sutherland's 2nd pro fight despite the banner saying it's his pro debut. I have a problem calling someone a boxer after one fight because of this.

After your first fight... I have trained Boxing for 2 and a half years but I still haven't had even one fight, so when people ask I always say I train boxing, I never say I am a boxer.

I have fought 3 amateur fights, 3 rounds of 1 minute, and still wouldn't consider myself a boxer.
1st fight we used 18oz gloves.
2nd fight we used 16oz gloves.
3rd fight we used 12oz gloves.

I'm training this summer hard so I can hopefully fight at Chicago Golden Gloves as a novice.

Strange, normally amateurfights are with 10oz gloves?
There's also often sparring with 10oz gloves
And rounds are 2 minutes.

There is a difference between a rookie boxer and an elite boxer.
