This is you Feuer? You sure you don't have a German twin living in Australia? You are a dead ringer for my brother's girlfriend! I'll have to get a photo of your twin sometime and post it so you can see what I mean :)Quote:

I've bought gloves from Target that lasted longer!
Those gloves are the bane of my existence....James is already 102kg so place those on his hands for sparring and every jab that touches ya hurts! But then again it encourages head movement!!!

We got a sport over here called hurling, I think ud enjoy it!!!
Man,I looked that up,geez theres a bunch of rules to that aint thereQuote:

To be honest the beauty of hurling is that although it is an amateur sport, it is the most important thing in the world to the people involved. (80% of the popualation) This is because it originated 100's of years ago as a form of rebellion against the British and ever since it's been a hugely patriotic sport, with the highest prize (the liam mccarthy cup) being like the holy grail over here.
But man it can be vicious!!! it's played in two divisions: club and county.
Ur club is the small local team belonging to ur village. County is when they take the best guys from all of the county's clubs to formulate the best most skillful team. But at club level!!!! Its just a bunch of guys straight outta the pub from the night before given sticks and told: NOW WHOEVER WINS GETS TO GO TO THE PUB AGAIN AFTERWARDS. Vicious man.
Interesting stuff,learn something new every dayQuote:

Would u believe that sport is comin in over here a little bit? Ireland is becoming a little bit Americanised due to it's reliance on the tourism trade....
Anyways i took a break for a week, back training this week. Man i forgot i was sparring the last night...oh well, so much for a break....Any way can't see my six pack so it's back to the Gym tonight.
Boxing in a MMA gym for the summer, the head guy wants to try steal me for muay thai :laugh:
Gettin some real tough spars with all these older guys, lovin it although havin a lot of weaknesses uncovered for me!
Congratulations CC for the win
