Im curious as to why you posted that?
No,your curious as to how your going to rip on him.
If you go back to even the Zelenoff fight,he didnt look nearly so tight. He slipped shots,he had a good jab considering the gloves he was wearing,and had a nice tight cross.
In other words he improved alot and is proud of himself for it.
Lets see your sparring video
If you wont put up,shut up
Go away and get your wife beat up some more. Im sure you thought Darky Brown looked half decent too? Fucking moron.
i post it cuz i wanted everyone to see my improvement and plus get everyone input good or bad
OK mate fair enough. Im not going to knock you. I would suggest sparring with people that have half a clue though, you'll improve more rapidly.
That has got to be some of the shittest sparring footage known to man?
Are they Special Needs kids?
You didnt get knocked out , but you just lost to a guy 0-4 ( he had been koed 3 times )
Kid thunder you lost to him , i fail to see any future for you in this sport.
I really fear for guys like you with little or no talent , its very bad for boxing , especially when u consider promoters are making money out of this garbage.
I've officially called "Skid Thunder" out in the "off topic" board.
I'm trying to get TM to fly me over for the trailer park events so i can beat him in his own backyard!:cool:
You better get in the queue, we were already lining up Youngblood to face him

Although if you can't get down to 147, I'll have him & you can go for ICB ;D
hahaha;D
lucky him..i'm light heavy
The whole thing has got to be a wind up surely to fuck ;D
Sadly mate, it isnt ;D
I can't view the vid.
I will however offer one small ray of hope for those who will never be a world champ, euro level, country, state level etc....the sport is filled with people who recognise they don't have what it takes but they can supplement their income in a sport they love. I'd suggest if you're happy with that you work massively on defence - so you don't get stopped and suspended so you'd lose out on future paydates, get yourself over to nobby nobbs ;D you can happily and relatively safely make something of a living that way.
Guys stop knocking these guys.
I for one think its good that they are bringing the plight of seriously retarded people to the public eye
Blacky Brown ;D
I'm with Big H... these people can't be real.
They must be super smart comedy geniuses. Must be.
I'm actually surprised that a lot of you are ragging on Kid thunder here. To be honest it reminds me a lot of the 'popular kids' all ganging up to rip it out of one kid in class.
Has he bragged? Is he posting with some massive ego? Is he making out that he's some sort of elite professional heavily involved in the world of boxing?
No... the guy has just posted a video of himself sparring... no need to insult the kid.
I know you all of a problem with Trainer Monkey (lol... I'm not going to start on about that!) but I don't see What Kid Thunder has done? Like I said he's not bragging about being a pro, he's not bragging about his boxing skills... I don't see what he's done to harm or upset you... other than you fancy picking on him because of Trainer Monkey.
If he enjoys the sport then fair play to him... He's lost 13 times... do you honestly think that he does it out of anything other than enjoyment? No need to tell him to give up boxing, call him a retard or take the piss out of him.
If you're concerned about him being exploited or hurt then contrucivly tell him. Missy is pretty much the only person who has posted with a clue here. oh and memphis said something nice and constructivly too, he's cool like that =) He's clued the fuck up, so back up before you get smacked the fuck up
With out going to over the top here you're acting like a bunch of hyenas...
hakuna matata bitches
Missy said she hasn't seen the vid.
The rest of her post was about advising these plums to learn how to protect themsleves. Which is obviously good advice.
The guys that "rag" on Kid Thunder probably find it shocking that a guy of such limited ability is a PRO with a boxrec record. That's what i've always thought anyway ;)
There is no harm but i mean what do you expect us to say??
Its human nature if the kid had any talent whatsoever id give him credit, its just pathetic if you ask me, the standard is so shocking what does he expect people to say?
I can honestly say i could find 15 year old kids who have never even put a pair of boxing gloves on, on the street corner put some gloves on him and he would be better than these clowns after 30 seconds, no offence to the kid if he wants to box thats fair enough, but like Simon Cowell does were just telling the truth its pathetic ive never seen anything so bad in all my life.
Say: Nothing/give him advice/even criticize him.
it's more the fact that it's for some reason people seem to feel the need to talk about special needs etc
Like I've said as long as he enjoys it and doesn't harm other postes there's no need for people to be plain insulting to him.
if he enjoys it great, good for him... he definitely needs to take a look and ask if he's taking too much punishment or being exploited, obviously he needs to take better care of himself but I don't see how calling him a retard helps at all.
He has a state licence/a box rec profile, it's not really a great accolade to be honest, if you have a problem with the fact he has a boxrec or a pro licence by all means say so but keep it at that.
Fighters like this are no new or shocking thing... part of boxing's food chain I'm afraid... the reason why we're even seeing him is because tne years ago there was no youtube or broadband
Part of the fun of training Andrew is watching him grow as a fighter and a person with positive re-enforcement. He really has grown alot. Ive allways been protective of Andrew,but if you want to rip on him when he's bad,you should also let him know when he's improved.
You may not like me for being a sarcastic bastard,and trust me its mainly sarcasm,but thats no reason to rip on Andrew.
And oddly enough,Im considered one of the most proffesional people in the buisness
Be afraid,be very afraid
What does this mean? Your criticising everyone on the thread for having a pack mentality and then lord it over those same people with that line above? 'You dont know what your talking about, Missy does and I know this because I am also one of the chosen few who know what Im talking about'
You dont need a sports science degree to see the double standards at play here right?
Im sure I remember you having quite a bit of fun with Jax on similar grounds.
Andrew seems like a really nice and humble kid, and if he enjoys what he is doing fair play to him, but it's not fair for anybody to ever suggest that the boys has any talent or will ever be a decent boxer. Tell it straight, keep it as a hobby, enjoy the sport, but get a new career.
(Sighs) Y'know something part of me wants to royally take the piss but I haven't seen the vid so I chose to play fair and be reasonable. I think you're all right ;D
I have seen some terrible boxing on shows and wondered how did they every get licenced. Is is bad for the sport? That's another topic. Has KT come over all bigheaded? I don't think so if he did he'd be in for a major kicking. He has been looking to improve which is good whether we agree with whom he has asked...another story:cool:
lol... way to read way to far into what I've said... Missy is the only person who had constructively said anything with a point to it... rather than just taking the piss.
I don't know who these chosen few are Memphis (or when I even said that??), either you're seeing something that isn't there or I'm missing something? What does having a degree in sports science at all have to do with people taking the piss out of somebody?
and lol... you want to talk about Jax?! he hasn't posted here for YEARS but that was all good spirited, I have the kid on myspace and MSN and he'll still randomly chat with me. Fuck give Jax some credit... he might like Rahman a little too much but he knew exactly what was going on.
haha! fair point I suppose! :p
What I mean is he at least knew I was carrying on with him... he kept asking me to make more videos on MSN.
Right I didn't see that, I'll edit my post and name drop you with Missy if you like. I wasn't trying to exclude you from some elite group.
If you said something constructive and didn't do nothing but take the piss then it's fair to assume that I wasn't talking about you isn't it?
That edit just wont cut it Im affraid, can you redo it to say that I have a clue please. I thank you.
I dont get why your getting your knickers in a twist? Whats the difference between whats going on here and what happened with Jax? He posted videos (comedy gold) in good faith asking what we thought of him and got royally torn to shreds over it, its the dine thing......isnt it?
I don't see how pretending to be a russian rap super star asking jax for a fight which he obviously knew was fake (unless he hadn't seen a single one of my posts were I wasn't a russian rap super star that wore a giant red crash helmet) and carrying on with him on MSN is the same as bluntly telling Andrew that he is retarded.
Come on he posted videos of himself dancing in his boxer shorts to the fuckingmortal combat theme tune :p... not sparring!
I'll re-do the quote... god... you don't ask for much ;)
C'mon now, Jax was dead serious with all that shit. You dont make a vid of yourself doing like 3 pressups wearing one hand wrap and then thump your chest if it isnt genuine ;D
are you two boys going to start fighting via youtube?
What against a Russian rapper? You must be fucking joking ;D
Exactly why Andrew deserves more credit than Jax... he actually fought AND beat a Russian Rapper.
Charlie Zelenoff
He's also a baller ???
