Was a good fight, he was swinging and missing and was catching up with him towards the end but he quit with a hand injury he said, but I think he couldn't hack the pace anymore hahaha ;)

Right on.
nice one Tam
Congratsulations man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE POST YOUR FIGHT
Good one Tam, keep it up.:appl:
The old hand injury excuse. You beat his ass. Well done!
This amateur or Pro? Either way impressive. Maybe even more so if amateur. Good job.
As soon as I can get hold of the footage I'll post it mate. Thanks everyone . I've watched it back and again there's a lot of work to be done but I was really happy with my slipping, barely got punched and I busted his nose up. In the clinch his breathing towards the end was strange he was looking for a way out because I was landing hard right hands. It's a shame because I was warming up nicely, he came out swinging and hit me with one round the back of the head that I felt , my head was a bit buzzy but my legs were fine. That was the only shot that I felt though and I'm sure it wasn't a legal punch. I'm not moaning about it because I can take a dig and got on with it and started boxing. Was a good experience though because he was there to win and I got another stoppage.Quote:

White collar mate semi pro it is. But we did have headguard and 16 oz gloves on. I would love to do ABA boxing again but there's no ABA gyms where I live in southport which is near Liverpool, it's a shame really. But I'm hopefully going to move to Liverpool soon and I'll join a gym who go through the ABA. I've been at my gym since I was 13 though so it will be hard going elsewhere as I love are gym and we have great fighters and coaches there too. I just wish we boxed through the ABA. We are mainly a Thai boxing gym though.Quote:

Honestly master if you saw me in training and what everybody credits me for is how good of a jab I've got. It's weird because in sparring I never let my right hand go enough and use my jab a lot. But in real fights I let it go more. I think it's because I'm usually sparring with gym mates and we respect each other so I don't let my right hand go too often unless we are having a heavy spar.
You the man Tam!
I would have thought it was more to do with throwing your haymaker right hand because you want to finish the fight and get out of the ring as fast as you can.Quote:
