Newbies posting vids about how great they are

[Rafael Benitez]

Do you have a personality disorder or are you telling us that you are the 'Real Raffa' ?

Do I have to point out when I'm having a laugh? LOL. If I was then I would have a doctorate for applying scientific mkethods to training, in which case that would have to be mentioned here!


Salty, have you ever trained with pro's? That is the basics of what you need to do to make it.

I like them posting vids. It keeps ya going to see how fat you have progressed when you see a total beginner hitting th bag.

No I guess I haven't trained with anyone who want to waste vast amounts of time on pointless volumes of exercises when there are much more efficient ways of coniditioning.

Why would anyone want to do 1000 push ups a day on their knuckles and run 5 miles every day? Me thinks you've watched one too many Rocky movies or something.

Please when making a thread mocking people, try to not accidentally put yourself in that mock pot.

Plus I think the vids are awesome! Not for instruction or anything, but it is why I come here. For them and their reactions. It's disappointing to see a good spar or fight almost at times. If I hit one my reaction is generally..."Aw fook! Oh well, there's probably a bagwork or dude flexing down a bit further!"

Good thread; dont like the gringoes reference.

hasnt shawn even had a single fight???? i thought he'd at least had a couple......that just makes his vids more ridiculous

I have had more than a couple fights, punchdrunk just likes to talk out of his ass. He has some sick fetish with me. I don't know why.

I totaly agree with this thread, it annoys me when i see ******s with no skill putting footage of themselves on the forum. They have trainers dont they, why do they ask us for advice on there skill. I just dont understand it.
and.........
whats even worse is people so into themselves thinking they have huge potential in the fight game, when they have obviously never been to a gym, never sparred, dont know how hard the training is to be a boxer. I personally find it disrespectful to the people who do fight.These people who think they have potential think its an easy sport and they can just turn pro and make money. Makes me farken sick....

hey rafael, I wasnt trying to act hard when I posted my video I was just posting it to get some pointers or advice. If Im one of the people your talking about, I never talked about how GREAT I AM. Im never like that.

It is getting annoying. Too many threads mainly by gringoes about how good they are when they are clearly begninning and in some cases, still in the kitchen and garage. Not taking mick people, but you need to join an affiliated boxing club and learn how to box! Then comeback with your vids and you won't look silly. Boxing is not about prancing around with bits of equipment labelled Lonsdale or Everlast. It is about having actual fights and going for bouts. Please make sure this is your primary goal, and not trying to get some kudos on a forum or attention to make yourself feel less insecure. Not just talking about shawn there.

Found a video from the limey lounge of some guys cousin boxing. Go there and check it out. that is a real amateur contest. If you haven't had one of them then please don't make yourself look like a right tit, and go on about your potential. If you're not getting coached properly and corss your feet, throw slap then forget posting that ****e too. Here are some guidlines for the basics below. Please newbies, do not take ti wrong way and try to heed some advice from a wise Spaniard!


1. Punch in a straight line and learn how to do it, before going on about skills. Newbies always want to learn some fancy moves first but it is more important to master basics first.

2. Get into good condition first. A pre-requisite of a good boxer. If you look **** on bags/pads/sparring and get slated in these forums this is probably one of the causes. Seems a bit obvious, but seen some right bums who have obviously put no effort in. It is very unlikely shawn and hinduw run 5 times a week when they need to. That is why they have no energy.

3. Do 1000 press ups a day on your knuckles. 1000 sit ups/crunches/leg raises too.

4. Build up running to five miles per day and add some stairs/sprints too.

5. Listen to criticism or the parts where I made an example of you above and do not take it to heart ormake it into a personal thing.

6. Do not take give up, and get some bouts.

7. Takecare and Goodbye.

Lets see some of your videos. Im sure you know absolutely nothing about boxing.

Not for nothing but....

doing 1000 press-ups a day, 1000 crunches a day, running 5 miles 5 days a week, adding sprints and stairs to that and then boxing training....

Thats a quick recipe for overtraining, joint destruction and general burnout.

You were going great until you posted workout routines you yourself do not follow.
