Bad news for me...Malta fight is off due to injury (pics)

[Tam Seddon]

Very silly Tam (although I have punched a wall myself but that was shadow boxing and not in anger). Try to count to 10 and take deep breaths. It works.

I know head injuries and trauma is common in boxing but not so much concussion.

I am concerned about your concussion and need to get it scanned as well as to give sparring a long rest.

It's hard when i have to be up for 5am for work everyday and then train for this big fight and then have to deal with a draining dull 12 hour shift with an achohlic who use to be in the navy. My head is fine now, i did have doctors do tests on me and everything was fine. I was angry because I've woken up to a pointless argument which had nothing to do with my former work colleague and my mother was screaming at me too. I was calm as anything master I could of easily assaulted the guy at work or verbally abused him but I did the correct thing and walked away and spoke to my boss ok the phone after I had been to the hospital. It's rare I ever get angry and it came out because my mum pushed me too far and I'm not an aggressive person but I'm human and everybody can get wound up and lose it. Especially when I'm training and dieting and doing countless 12 hour shifts with low life's like this guy was.

Anyway I got back to trained Today and the owner of the gym posted this on Facebook about me. I could of easily sat at home feeling sorry for myself or i could of got back to the gym and carry on what I've started and do what I can do. I also did a 5 mile run after because I didn't do that much in the gym just light shadow boxing , ab work and some ring step ups.

I'm not going to let this situation turn into a negative. I won't fight again this year and fingers crossed this will give me good preparation time to turn into a decent 12 stone fighter in the new year.
