Alright I've noticed quite a few Heavyweights here in the Training and Nutrition section, so I wanted to touch base with a few of them and either offer my advice to the total greenies or take advice from a few seasoned amateurs/professionals.
I'm 6'4 1/2, 275lbs (**** you, i know im fat, but once I decide to lose weight it melts off like butter, and even at 275 I have extremely quick hands when I want them to be, my only problem is stamina. DAY 3 NO CIGARETTES MOTHER****RES WOOOO...my gf is pissed at me because i was so upset last night and wanted a cig so bad I didnt even wanna sleep with her...nicotene is brutal, and we've never had any probs in our ***life but man...when you quit smoking cold turkey it makes you have these shakes, and you just feel pissed off for no reason...I lost my boner in like 15 seconds, anyways..that ****er on green mile woulda called me "Yew limp newdle" hahaha,,anyway...)
Strictly orthodox, but I do have one trick move where I shift into southpaw just to throw a quick straight left and then switch back into ortho. I'm working on the punch, it's interesting, and something you'd only do maybe once a match, but it looks beautiful when executed right. I have a 78 inch wingspan but my body and arms are proportioned to where I can get decent leverage on my hooks, and also have a nice snappy triple jab when I need it. So I am more of the versatile type rather than a one trick poney. When I get a guy in front of me whos a short-stuff puncher, I'll just move around away from his power and feed him the jab, when he gets close I'm dirty ,i hold, clinch, n unload a big right hand or left hook to the body as i push off. im a dirty ****er. but it works... and just keep moving and landing the jab, doubling and tripling up on the jab vs shorter opponents that dont move their head well will benefit you taller guys, alot.. When I fight someone taller than me I tend to adapt and change my style up to a boxer puncher/peekaboo last resort type **** if I need to look good at the end of a round...close the gap while my pendulum is moving back and forth and deliver the left hook in close, then finish off with lefts to the body and crosses as I back up and start all over again, unless my guy is open in which then it's jab+cross+left to body all day.
Anyway im rambling, any other heavies feel free to post in here. not sure if you cats have any vids but feel free to post em, i got sparring vids and bag vids if you have trouble finding them let me know.
remember this thread is for heavies only, so you little guys unless you want to give me advice on my style or another heavy advice on his style, hit the bricks...its strictly a hw thread unless you have constructive criticism.
As far as my goals for boxing and why I want to clean out the local amateur heavyweight division (that's goal #1.) goal #2 will be announced when I clean out the local amateur heavyweight division.
I'm quite confident I will be able to accomplish this task,im not gonna be one of those guys who goes losing his first fight and ****...I honestly feel sorry for the first guy they put in front of me, the surgeries and pain ive went through for this first moment...man, that dude is gonna have to ****in kill me to win the fight.
