Anyone know any good witch doctors? I need to turn this luck thing around.
Yeah it can suck.

I can be a bit superstitious for a scientist though and at the risk of sounding really corny perhaps this was meant to happen (the tournament cancellation not the death - sorry to hear about that).

Maybe you need a couple of weeks off of competition to get things into gear training wise? I mean sure your efforts are great but you said yourself sparring has been limited lately since you haven't had access to the right people.

Maybe this is your opportunity to perhaps look at more interclub sparring without offending your coach since I'm assuming he'll need to take some time off anyway?

I've just been away in the UK for a month so haven't been online much - I am actually interested in your log though so keep us updated .

While I met a lot of people who have inspired me in a few different areas of my life. As far as boxing and physical conditioning goes I was really happy and encourage by meeting Scrap and learnt a lot in only a few days - after not learning much at all in my old gym for more than the last year I spent there.

I've decided that my time off of boxing leading up to this trip has being good for me in the long run. Just working out now how to put everything I've learned from everyone into action.

Seriously you have soooo much time to win other big tournaments ahead of you - you'll get your break in one form or another at some stage and you'll do great!
