I've not done professional coaching but gosh shucks I'll give it a go, how hard can it be? If KT wants me to I'm availbable by phone :)
So i take it KT is not a contender yet ?;DQuote:

He actually went the distance which he'd never done before,and the one judge who gave it to McClure wasnt in his seat for a round and a half,even then it was a 1 point decision.
So yep,you could safely say he improved alot,and for my money he won the fight hands down. I was going to file a formal complaint over it,but McClure asked for a rematch,so I talked to Andrew and he decided he'd rather have another shot at McClure,then get in to an argument with the commissioner.
I felt really awful for Andrew about the whole thing,he fights probably the best fight of his career only to get hosed by a judge who wasnt even watching a round and a half of the fight
So another one of your fighters gets beat but it wasnt their fault? It was the referees fault, the judges fault, the other guys fault for punching back.
Patern forming here isnt there.
So your saying if your supposed to be judging a fight,you dont actually have to be looking at it?Quote:

Ive seen the fight from 3 different angles and any idiot can see Andrew won the fight,the other two judges had it a draw,which I still think is BS,but at least they had the decency to be at ringside for the whole fight.
Even McClure doesnt think he won the fight,and since he was the other guy in the ring,he'd have something to judge it on.
Unlike you
Why not, you train him without actually looking at him. Dude it was a majority decision, one of them thought he lost legit.Quote:

I mean youd think McClure had a better vantage point then just about anyone,he was the one getting hit in the face,and he doesnt think he won. And he'd be right in that assessment,because he didnt.
Everything about Andrew is micromanaged now,hell I'll know tonight how his day at work went.
And he's responded by throwing up the best fight of his entire career,and he'll be better next time by far
Only a bagel with no cream cheese? OK, I take it all back, you da man :rocks:
He's ticked off about it,he used to eat,well Id rather not say,because then Id want some,and Im not allowed to eat that crap either.Quote:

And since your curious,Andrew came in UNDER weight for his last fight,almost like somebody was checking his diet and exercise regiment.Or there was like this great holy miracle from god.
And for the record,I made him buy a new scale,because his scale was saying he was over,and it turned out he was way over
bagels are high calorie, they are high GI. refined white flour carbs.
I would have eaten the cream cheese;D
Stop talkin bollocks Missy, I think its quite clear the ideal training diet is plenty of bagels, possibly some nice donuts with a sprinkled raspberry icing on top, or if you're trying to come in well clear of the weight liimit, have a big Belgian chocolate cake ;)Quote:

You know douchebag,I have other fighters,when of them had a draw I thought he won,I didnt say a god damned thing.He shouldnt have let it get that close.Quote:

What am I supposed to say,"Yay we got hosed"?
And Fenster wonders why I dont give out my full roster,you rip on the fighters you know I have allready,why on earth would I give you more ammo to rip on any of my other fighters.If you had any reason to wonder why Im secretive about who my fighters are,you have only to find a mirror,and you'll know why.
So go back to playing Fight Night on PS3,and leave the sport to the rest of us.
you said 2 judges had it even, so even if one judge was to give it to the other guy, it would be a majority draw, not a 1 point lossQuote:

If all your fighters are as bad as Andrew then yeah your right, I'd rip on them too. If any of them are decent that would shut me and alot of others up pretty quickly wouldnt it.
Take a look at your posts for gods sake. Posting prediction threads about Luvaknobski V Nguyen, no first names, no links to records, like we're expected to know who they are, you do it on the main board too, Smith V Jones, who wins? I dunno, who the fuck are they?
Eat burgers leading up to fights, stuff your face with pizza or fried chicken, I hope my wife kills her next opponant ect ect
And your surprised when you get mocked?
:-\
don't forget the deep fried twinkys with chocolate ice cream and hot fudge, helps their stamina ;DQuote:

I dont write the rules for every state,but I can bitch and moan about them,in Arkansas that counts as a loss.
It comes back to why Id love to have a national governing body,we expected him to get hosed on the cards because he was fighting in the other guys home town,but we were all positive theyd give him a flat draw. Everybody choked when they gave it to McClure by a point,including McClure
Don't blame him. Some of the local hooligans were trying to steal his ice cream truck. He had to run out there.Quote:

I dont really understand why trainer monkey deserves to be ripped on like this??
So he sticks up for his guys and at times may even be borderline byest, we`d all be the same much like when our favourite sports team loses a close contest.
And what the hell is wrong with him getting his fighters names out there through the internet?? kid thunder and charlie zelenoff should by right be complete unknowns yet they managed to become over night boxing forum celebritys through their shananigans on the web.
No he may not ever manage to work with a decent fighter with a solid record, but he`s still getting these guys some attention!!!
and on that note i'd love to see Kid Thunder Vs. the dude from Napoleon Dynamite, the guy with the flag pants ;DQuote:

Whats with the Name TM..?.you going all ICE on us ;D
Post the fight up on here, is that possible? If not Pm the fight wouldnt mind wathcing it.
Simple,for some reason Mozzila and Excite have decided they hate my computer,I had my auto log in book mark on Mozilla,and I have my copy of my old password in my Excite E-mail box.And for the life of me I cant remember what that password is,so I had to create a different account using Yahoo insteadQuote:

But I saw something in him even in defeat,that said,"You know,if he actually had a trainer he could do something",you just cant keep that boy down.
You want to see the difference in Andrew and Charlie,its pretty obvious. Andrew had never had much training but it never stopped him from trying against bad odds,Charlie's had 100's of dollars worth of training and its never stopped him from running from any odds.
Are there things I wish he hadnt done against McClure? Of course there are. But that doesnt mean I cant objectivly look at the fight,and say he won. We've still got a road to travel,and he still has things he has to fix if he wants that record to look better,but now that he knows someone cares about how he does in there, he's putting in the work to do it.
Honestly,sometimes its more of an effort to keep him from overworking and hurting himself
As long as it's the real thing, "Philadelphia Cream Cheese", you should be ok. The best cream cheese comes from Philly don't you know. Any hick town with a boxing ring and a corner store should sell the stuff, along with 100% whole wheat wonder bread and a plastic knife you can take back to the motel, you are all set for the big fight.Quote:

Not comparing myself to Hopkins in any way,but neither do I.Its a hard city to live in.Any neighborhood you can afford to live if you have moderate means,you probably dont want to live in.Quote:

I miss my home town some days,but I really wouldnt like my kid to live there. Just too much random drama.
howdy, but everyone should be prepared to take the positive along with the general piss taking that is a mark of saddos ;)Quote:
