My one heavy weight got a last minute amateur fight for tommorrow night

[Douglas]

Let us know how it turns out.

[Trainer Monkey]

He reverted to his old trainers style,brought his hands too tight,and got caught with a bunch of hooks
He never went down,but the ref stopped it

[Trainer Monkey]

For the record,I was pretty sure he was going to lose
All he had to do to throw it away was revert to how he was when I got him
Some people have to learn the hard way
What will be interesting is how he re-acts
If he brushes himself off,well now he knows
Or he'll quit
Allways an interesting point
Feur bucked up,and is allready back in training,now we'll see with him

[Douglas]

Dang. Hate to hear about that. I'm sure he'll turn hisself around.

The other guys had him for well over a year,Ive had him only a couple of months
Had to accept the fact that he could revert to his old habits,he did
Now we see how he reacts to it
If he was going to do it,Id rather have had him do it in amateurs,or semi-pro,like he did

Shame to here he lost but hopefully he will use this loss and learn from it.

How Im looking at it
A)Fighters revert to a base state,when their hurt or confused.So he went back to the both hands high style he was first taught.He knows I dont want him doing that.One of the reasons I hate that style is you cant see to block big hooks.Well guess what he got caught with? Well now he knows I wasnt kidding him
B)He proved he has a chin,he never went down,they just stopped it
C) He did this in an amateur fight,instead of a much more easily researched pro fight.So it wont hurt getting him booked as a pro as much down the road
D) We'll find out one way or the other if there IS a down the road for him,by how he reacts

No better way to prove to yourself that your trainer is right than getting stopped

What happened when Mr Bic and Mr Mousey didnt do what I wanted

And before you nut jobs say different,I just poured some water over the lighter and the mouse after I clubbed them with the sledgehammer and lit them on fire
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm somehow that only sounds marginally better

[Sharla]

I was wondering how the mouse got wet

Losses are never fun but I swear I always learn about 10 times more from loosing. Maybe I'm not mature enough to take on what I need to improve when I win - too busy being happy

I refuse to work their corners
If they lose,then I missed something,and lets go back and fix it,my fault lets get back to work
If they win,they never have to doubt wether they could do it without me
I get them the best cornerman I can with the notice Im given,but I never want them thinking its the trainer that won the fight
