When did eric go to Barbados, I must have missed that.
Good luck.
lost on points tonight, got knocked down in the first, ill need to watch that back again I have no idea what happened. It was a flash a knockdown, I didnt see the punch i was down but no hurt. I was behind from that point and he was the best lad ive been in with. It was tough, and the rounds were close. I wasnt out classed but I lost. He was a lot bigger than me in size. Im going to get to light heavy for my next one, im too small for cruiser against these bigger lads. Giving away too many advantages. Also had to fight in 10oz gloves , everybody else were in 16s, was a bit annoying. Ill post the video soon.
That's rough, Tam, but you said yourself that the other guy would be bigger and that you are in the transition to a smaller weight, so you might as well take it as a learning experience and count the positives. You sound like you were still competitive despite the size difference, and yeah, you were on the way to LHW anyway. That's the thing with the gap between LHW and CW, it's such a massive differential and so if you are stuck in the middle you are giving up a lot and you don't get any of that at any of the lower weights. Chin up and move onto the next target!
Fascinating hearing your experience.
How are you going to cut down in weight?
What will be your diet?
How are you going to improve your skills?
Going to speak to the right coaches, all pros or former pros. Skills wasn't the problem mate, defence needs to be tighter I'll be fine. Not put off by it more determined ;DQuote:

Dont get on much these days but always reading. Unlucky on the loss Tam. I'd say it's awesome you step beyond the ropes pal, not many on here do I bet. I think stepping beyond them ropes is one of the most brilliant things a man can achieve. A friend of mine started a year or so back, inspiring it is..... Good times ahead and best of luck with sticking at it and the rest of the training pal.....
Nice one mate, I've got a lot to learn but still always improving. I'll be back training tomorrow, going to move down a weight classQuote:

And all very good, no easy matches at all and they all know they had their toughest fights. I've had nothing but praise of their coaches , even though I lost I have learnt from it. I'm back in the gym tomorrow and diet starts Monday, just got a juicer this weekend so going to have a plays with that this week.Quote:
