I was only able to watch the first round (at work) but I thought that you stayed very well composed for your first fight. Obviously, there are many improvement points which others will comment on and most you already know, but I just wanted to say how impressed I was with your composure.

Was an unlicensed event last weekend.I'm in the black vest. Lost via split decision unfortunately but many people in the audience thought I won based on cleaner punching. Though looking at the vid my work rate was no where near enough because of my poor stamina so I understand why the decision went against me.

Critique away!:

Great job! U should be proud bud. I will leave the critique to others but u looked like you belong in there. Peace.

Very Nice work, you looked really good, fairly good defense and good counter shots. You will build stamina slowly by progress and you busted his face really good.

You looked good in the 1st round then the 2nd & 3rd your punch output dropped cuz he was smothering you like what shawn porter does. When they come in like that use upper cuts. You did good for your 1st bout, good luck on the next one.

You were working nice with your jab and movement, but why no combinations, and where were your right hands in the first 2 rounds. Lead right hands could have kept that guy off of you to allow you to breathe a bit. Stick that jab, up/down, double them up. And employ your right hand more often. Hooks? You'll grow if you stick with it......Rockin'

Gotta let that right hand go, and get that stamina up for sure. Looked good tho man. Def punch more in combinations and work out of the initial clinch.

The few times i did throw the lead right he ducked underneath it which put me off from throwing it. I wanted to stay tall so didn't jab to the body because I didn't want to risk coming down into his power but you're right sticking the jab to the gut would've been effective against his style. My left hook was working throughout the fight but i'll need to work on the right.
