Must suck being Thurman's trainer.

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Thurman loved his mentored and when he past tragically he dedicated his career to him. It's called integrity and honor!!
Birmingham understands the reasons because he has young kids in his gym that he is mentoring right now who look up to him.
Most of the boxing gyms that are established to help youth develop social skills are just using the sport as a tool.
The percentage of kids who become state champs never reach the regional's or the nationals. Most never compete internationally and
less than one percent become pro stars!

Thurman gives back to his trainers goals and supports the local
kids in his area.

This is true. He's always at local fights coaching.

Yeah man, some people are just put into environments that almost force them to be successful, as long as they put int he work. And of course you need the psychical ability to keep up with those guys, but even if you can't, you're a lot better off than most.

But yeah, I don't think I could take head and body trauma for my career lol. No bueno on that, son.

When I told my dad I was gonna start training he started panicking as if I was gonna be fighting or some **** and started telling me of the consequences of boxing as if I didn't know. He said he didn't like it but he would support anything I did. Lol

Do you train right now? Are you involved in boxing in some way, professionally? Or more of a hobby?

This. I highly doubt Dan gives a crap, as long as his 10% keeps rolling in.

Yea..plus when Thurman finally loses a fight he can blame Ben & keep his job.

I just hated it when Tyson praised D'Amato...

When I was training I just trained and sparred. After I had my daughter I started getting away from it little by little cause I was busy taking care of her. Now I got school AND gotta play daddy too so yea... that's all gone for me.

I started developing from shoulder pain too which I think came from lifting weights too. It would get to the point where I could barely even jab. Lol

Hah, story of my life brother. When I had my daughter, stopped going to the boxing gym, and just hit up the gym to lift weights. Hey man, you're lucky you have time for school. I work full time, daddy duties, and wish I had time to go back to school. Keep on grinding man. It's gonna pay off my dude.

I was working full time before going to school but said **** this. It's free and I get paid so might as well go. I got it pretty easy right now tbh. Can't really complain.

What's the story of Ben Getty, how did he die?

I'm too lazy to google
