This is the fight against the former professional Southpaw. I can't wait for this. I'm fighting at 13 stone 4, I'm on the weight now and ready.

'Tam is the Man'

Patience, and then counter.

Cheers mate and I know I was far too heavy. But I've trained hard and I'm ready for it.

[Dark Lord Al]

Good luck Tam.

[Tam Seddon]

Lost a close majority decision. Barely was touched he was just hard to nail with anything. He was the home fighter so they gave him the nod. I couldn't let any punches go compared to normal because he was a southpaw. I'm gutted but shit happens.

[IamInuit]

Oh well. Dust yourself off and get back on the horse. You seem pretty active and that domestic scene along with Mexico is probably the toughest on the planet. Learn from it. Southpaws are a tough nut and this guy probably new some tricks to keep you off.

No pain no gain. Have a boo at Benny Leonards first 25. He was barely batting 500. It aint over.

[Primo Carnera]

Unlucky pal. Look at the positives , southpaw ex pro and a very decent one, you must've learnt a lot tonight. Keep plugging away , the buzz of getting between the ropes will keep you motivated.

[Master]

Southpaws should be banned.

Do not worry Tam.

Pre fight picture. There was no Shame in the result if it would have been a home it would have been different. All experience no doubt. I'll post the video soon

Last round of the fight

[Master]

Tam that was an elusive southpaw like Herol Graham who are awkward to catch.

He also ran and held more than Floyd Mayweather so punches in bunches with an elbow punch below the belt thrown in was what was required to slow him down.

You must have felt frustrated.

[El Kabong]

Sorry you lost Tam, but it's a learning experience vs an awful style. It takes a cagey fighter to steer a guy like that into traps and big punches.

I am interested in what DID work for you though, because often in thinking about what DID work, you're better able to figure out some sort of rhyme or reason as to why other strategies failed AND why new strategies might work instead of the ones that didn't.

So where did you have success Tam?

[Beanflicker]

No shame in losing. As long as it was a fair fight and you enjoyed yourself.

[Beanflicker]

Challenge him to a bit of thai boxing and kick the fuck out of that lead leg.
