3rd amateur match (video)

How long you been training dude?

You look pretty good ... better than your record suggests.

Keep putting in the hard work in the gym and the wins will come.

Good luck.

On and off for a year...My first two matches were March last year after 2 months of training. I'm trying to get more matches in this year...

Well, it's obvious why you lost your first 2 bouts. After 2 months of training, it's going to be very difficult to win a fight.

In my experience, most lads train for around a year before their first bout.

I wouldn't try and get too many bouts in this year if you are wanting to win them. For example, say you have 10 bouts in the next 4 months, you will then be boxing lads who have had around 13 bouts (i.e. who have been boxing 2-3 years), and yet you will have only been training 16 months.

Of course if you just enjoy the bouts then by all means get as many as possible, but don't expect to win too many. If you want a winning record - don't rush it. You certainly have plenty of potential.

Good look.

My third fight was my first loss as an amateur dont sweat it bro... amateur its for learning hope this serves as fuel.

You look ok to tell the truth you just got to work on maintining the rythm also at the end it seems like you were running out of steam. Amateur boxing its all about throwing like crazy.

Good work bro keep up the hard work !

Good fight..Sorry about the lose though..Looked like you could get something from a strong defensive jab..When you employed one in the fight you didn't seem as confident in it as your step in jab..There are two ways to get extra power in a non step in jab..One is to use a Hip shift to transfer power into the jab the other way is to transfer weight from back to front feet without a step..I prefer the Hip shift because its lets me use the energy to throw a more powerful defensive jab and then step off to the left with a real fluid movement..You can chain them up so much it may look like a step in jab but its not..Its a hip shift, throw jab, step left and repeat..I can throw this with as much power as a step in yet use it to stop an advance or as a counter to opponent jab..Something you cant do well with in a step in jab..
The hip shift jab also sets your body up for a real powerful strait right or cross..As you return you right arm your body can easily crouch and pop back up with a left hook..Our push off your left leg to get space...All things that are difficult to preform off a classic step jab..
