So its not exactly like tyson did it.


      In my view Tyson set the standard by which all other short sluggers should be judged. Although far from perfect, he was pretty damn good and so much better than anybody else. If you are even half as good as Tyson you are ready to turn pro because you will get the knockouts. Lets face it, you are probably already twice as good as Sam Peter and only half as fat!

        Sam Peter.haha. Ive been working with long lanky ranged jabbers lately. With more skill then anyone you've seen in my videos.He's a trainer at my gym,around 5'10. He does everything that ppl said could have beaten Tyson when he was in his prime. He jabs alot,throws fast combos,not afraid to go toe to toe when have too,and he moves around alot. Its a good learning lesson,even if Im schooling him.I learn alot from ppl live that. I'll be posting a video on the 20th,win or lose.If I can get a camera in time.

          What does he do when you bury your lefthook in his guts? If you haven't buried it yet then you know you have more work to do otherwise you will be digging your own grave!

            Ive done that.He grunted and looked as if he was going to go down so I let off on it. I also started left hooking him upstairs and he would get hurt when it landed so I slowed that down too. He's a good sport though.

              If you turn pro, you will get paid to knock guys out. What is the point of doing it for free?

                I need more practice.I already got the ok from my trainer so its all good. Just trying to get some more practice. I face enough pros and different style to be comfortable now though.

                  pretty good, you look good.

                  only thing is your head movement is too predictable and repetitive. A solid one two from a guy who knows what hes doing and isnt gun shy and knows how to use feints would catch you everytime.

                    Ive sparred alot of ppl,and pros.I tend to switch up somethings with their style. Im not always the same.If you check my other spars Im not always the same.

                      Looks good, I don't know if this was your goal but if you want to fight like Tyson, He would throw a straight at the same time his opponent would, accept he'd duck out of the way at the same time etc..So like a punching duck/weave?

                      you look in good shape though
