STATEMENTS

Your first opponent................
1. keeps both hands below his shoulders at all times.
2. has no defensive skills.
3. has horrible head movement.
4. has no sense of the ring.
5. has a horrible stance.
6. doesn't know how to fight off ropes.
7. either doesn't know how to clinch or when too.
8. has sub-par foot movement.
9. FORGOT he had a right hand.
10. doesn't know his distance for ****.
11. throws the jab low.
12. brings the jab back low.
13. doesn't know what pivot means at all.

14. shouldn't be sparring in the first place seeing how winded he was after throwing less than 60 punches in not even 1 rounds time(and thats being generous I even counted the smothered ones)


The second guy is too out of shape for me to even start on him.

You'll never get good going against this level of opposition.If You want to have a chance in any national tournaments find better people to train with.. and thats jus being real because I got welter weights in my gym that would eliminate any aspirations or hopes those guys wake up in the morning with that allows them to even go to the gym. Neither would have lasted 30 seconds against me.....Sounds ****y but im jus bein real... Your gonna get hurt when you enter a tournament if you waste time with those guys holding up your progress. 1

Catastrophe --- Weight class 165

^oh **** dude you are yoked you think you can handle versa in a gym war?

[hectari]

for the bolded part thats the difference between me and u,I dont go out and act like a badass and try to go for the kill in sparring. I took the first guy out in like a minute in a half and I didnt even mean too. I was taking it rather slow.second guy look out in 2 rounds that were 2min each. first round I was workin on defense cause I wanted to work as u can clearly see.

and why ppl always think ill get hurt and other things when I pick the competition up in sparring or comp or what not,Its sparring only.u know how many flaws I can find on great fighters also?plently.theres no such thing as a perfect fighter.

and lastly I dont pick who I spar I take what I can and get in there and work,I never saw those guys in my life til that day.

There just haters...you were by far the most impressive ive seen on this board...and that 2nd guy was trying to be tough..DA1CATAS probally didnt observe how your corner man told the other side to chill out and its just sparring.

you clearly got some good power you need to pursue this as a career while you are young and if you dont get far at least you know you tried.

make that paper.

Hey what DA1Cats said was all pretty accurate. Don't take it as hating Vers. I want you to succeed and I've always liked you, but I think too that all the guys I've seen you spar with are not good enough for you. It's not your fault and you'll be fine. I'm not saying you're going to get hurt or any dumb **** like that, but you should look for some better competition than you've been getting. DA1 would not have said any of that if he didn't think you had potential.

Since im working with leija im sure he has **** loads of connections to ppl I can spar with,he observes me quiet well already.And yeah I want more ppl to spar and better ppl I need to test my chin out.

Damn when you turning pro? what weight class you gonna fight? your pretty short but **** man you got the style of tyson and with better stamina and hopefully a clearer mind and more heart, damn dog you got some good whiskers too that one dude tryed to knock you out and then you dropped him clean with 1 punch haah thats what he gets.

I am guessing you will be fighting and cutting down to at 140? or 135? you look about 170 at 5 feet 5? am i correct?

still laughing at that 2nd guy when you knocked him down he still didnt gather his marbles he didnt know where he was haha.

I wanna turn pro in like 5 or 6 months and fight at either 154 or 147.

How tall are you?

First off I don't sparr acting like im trying to kill my guys... but the level they are at leaves no room for holding back.. its jus that simple.... 2 of the guys I spar with are 1 and 3 time state champs in florida...152 (so I get use to the faster speed and punch output) & 178 (because he's 6'4 with long arms and a scary jab)....There is no half assing when im in there with those guys because they wanna work hard... Each sparring match is like a fight.. we have specialized defensive rounds after sparring.... That makes sense because no one is gonna go light on any of us in a tournament.. I understand you don't pick your sparring partners THATS WHY I STATED TO ask for BETTER OPPOSITION.....and if your trainer sees these guys are no match he should make you move with better guys..

And to anyone who thought I was hating on VERS go read what I said again... you can clearly see that I said these chumps were holding up his progress.

Videos when i get them.

how much you walk around at? Im pretty sure you might have to fight at 140-147 range since your not that tall...but would the cut be too much? how much you weigh in the video.

and your stats bro?

[shawn_]

Dont say you want to test your chin out. A fighters goal in life should be to never know if they can take a punch. You got the good bob and weave defense going on. Keep honing it, and dont think about "testing" your chin.

I have always said, fight like you have a glass jaw, even if you dont. That doesnt mean you have to run or pot shot, it just means work your defensive skills. You fight like Tyson. That is good. I feel Tyson is one of the best defensive fighters ever. I know you watch all of his fights. Most of his early career, he never got hit. You should do the same.
