I saw the first 4:15 seconds
1)shouldn't you be wearing headgear? I mean you got hurt a few times out there, this is just sparring right?
2)Just my advice, I don't have the know how or technical acumen of TM but shouldn't you pick your shots a bit more? You just went nuts for the first minute or so and wasted a ton of energy.
3) he throws straighter punches which was why he was getting to you. You actually threw the best punch I think I've ever seen you throw (I've only seen a few minutes of your career but still) about 2 minutes and 17 seconds in there, a pretty straight right hand but then you got wild again. I'd look at that right hand you threw and try to do that more often.
You were the guy in white shorts right? If not disregard all of this.

Personally, I wouldn't read too much into whether or not you should convert to southpaw based on your experiences with a guy who openly admits he didn't know what to do against one.
Also, and I don't mean this disrespectfully, with a chin as dodgy as yours I think you would be well-served to focus on improving your currently non-existent defense. Otherwise, everyone you fight is going to keep countering your wild punches with straight shots, and you'll continued to get hurt and dropped in every fight you're in.
Good luck in your upcoming fight.

Andrew I havent read all the comments here ,but Andrew honestly mate if you are not of the understanding as to why some other fighters are getting through your defense yet; then it is not time to switch stances by a long shot.
Occasionally (once in three years)you'll see someone with fight intelligence that is ahead and is setting up a finish by switching.
These are patterns that you train to accomplish in sparring and will set up an opponent into a position and you into a position to be able meet them (through the switch) coming at you side on so you can finish the job i the openng you have just earnt.
You will see some boxers switch when they are way out in front, some when they are themselves confused and being beating anyway. Both are stupid things to do,one is posing and going for more crowd points,the other is saying to his opponent:
" IM ALL IN".
Andrew ,Which one do you want to be and why?

Yeah. I thought I was settling in to watch a sparring video...
...and I thought Hatton was punchy.
Kid T, you're never going to make a career out of the fight game. Set yourself some short term goals and "retire."
You can train and learn to defend yourself, but to label yourelf a professional is a disgrace to your name.

When someone is stuck in the corner like that don't just treat them as a fucking heavy bag. Give enough space between you and them some you can create leverage on your shots, jab at them till they give you an opening. Split his guard with an uppercut, double up on one side. If he was decent at all he could have timed you easily and countered with a left hook right on your chin.
But man you need to work on the basics, fuck going southpaw, learn how to fight orthodox first. Get the footwork and straight punches down. Your jab had no snap to it. Keep you elbows in and twist your torso into the punch.

What I mean by this is...
When you tell someone that you are professional fighter they hide behind you when danger comes, never thinking that Slowpoke Rodriguez could "steal your cheese."
I can't be a "professional" auto mechanic if every brake job ends with my client pinned under the dash at the first redlight he comes to...

I concur
Micro Tyson looks like he is barely winning the race against Down's Syndrome
2:25-2:50 of rd. 3 was ROFLMMFAOI love how the ref dragged Thunder back into the ring like a limp corpse.
Here's some advice Thunder.....keep doing exactly what you're doing; it's great comic relief.![]()

I will give you the 2 most simple things to work on...
1. Throw your jab more, throw it straight and work off the jab,
2. You smother your punches when you get the guy in the corner covering up, stand back a bit allow yourself the room to punch, he is in the corner you can control him there.....even if he spins out you can still keep the range to be effective
