    Default My Countering Is Getting Better And Better.

    It just seems so natural to me now i was sparring again today and i leaned back when my opponent rushed in and i caught him with a counter right and knocked him down, i was able to exploit my opponent's weakness of rushing in making him off balance by leaning back. Sorry if i keep making threads of my day to day sparring sessions but it makes you feel really good inside when all the practice and hard work pays off.

    Good to see things going well for you. My bro in law has a punchbag, I was on it the other day and felt good. I might start getting back into boxing. A lot of my cousins do it.

    I suggest you do it mate and if you don't want to have fights or etc, you can just do it as a hobby or something like that.

    Oh I'd be interested in fights. The hard part is just walking in that gym though with loads of new people thinking who's this kid. I'd feel a little nervous if I'm being honest. I'd rather not join the Rotunda gym as well (Where Paul and Stephen Smith are based) as I'd rather join a different one.

    I understand what you mean its kind of like going into new school, but your be fine just as long as your not big headed or etc, because they don't allow that in my gym and your be ok. I think your love it and you certainly should do it now because your young don't wait too long Lee.

    Yeah I said to myself I'm gonna join the week I come back from holiday (Middle of August) beacuse otherwise I'd regret it for ages. I read a lot of boxing interviews in magazines etc and Paulie Malignaggi inspired me by sayin he got thrown out of school and joined a gym at 16 and now he's became a world champion. Obv i dobt I'll reach that stage but it gives me motivation that there's no reason I can't be successful. The earlier the better really.

    Exactly and who said you can't be champion ?? your human, you have two arms, a heart, just like they do. So your always in with a chance and always think that way Lee.
