I walk around @ 138-142 so I'll get a few fights in @ 132. I always have to spar bigger guys but I know if I can take their shots and not get man handled, guys my size will be no problem
Finding lightweight sparring isn't easy....I often spar welterweights n a few smallish middleweights...I'm.physically strong and have pop so their not just gonna bull doze me, lol
Rae is very athletic, strong, good legs and hand speed.... Of course he was working with me and not going 100%
The kid I told you about, money Powell the lV is giving me instructions...the kid I told you that got signed with Schaefer n RingStar

My eldest brother did box, and was ****ing lethal in his weight class. Just as he was about to go pro, my mom was all "Noooo! You'll get hurt! Mom talk, mom talk" and he was like "okay." Besides, he has an addictive personality, and would have ended up as a boxing cliche/statistic.
But yeah, I want to do enough boxing that I'm good enough to understand it completely. I actually want to start a gym and ****, and eventually a Promotional company. Even build a dedicated boxing arena in my province, because its just the Eastern Cape and Gauteng which have genuine boxing facilities.
Anyway, I've rambled enough.

Originally posted by OllieA View PostRelax your stance a bit more, bring your legs a little closer together, maybe bend your knees a bit more and try not to lean forward so much. Will feel a little more natural
I'm definitely working on my stance
It was a lot more tense n wide
When I go train today I'm gonna work on it on the slip rope n shadow boxing
Money was telling me the same thing you did about my stance
Definitely gonna work on it so I can be more relaxed and with my legs closer
Thanks bro

Imcidentally - I'm assuming you're the dude in the headguard - your footwork seems a little like you've transitioned from another martial art, maybe karate or Taekwando, but that could just be me or the wide stance you mention.
