[jamiebhoy]

Good for you mate !! Keep shooting high , no reason you can't do whatever you set your mind to now. Real happy for you.

[Master]

Well done for living the dream that I wish I could have had.

[Dizaster]

That's f'n awesome man... Time for someone to give this darn tooten forum some credibility in actual boxing.. (where is a high five smiley when you need one)

Seriously, I bet everyone here is real proud of you, as you should be to yourself..
Just remember every pushup, every step of roadwork, every punch you took in sparring, every minor tweek you had to work into your punches and footwork to get to that level... It's an incredible thing that you have had the motivation to work to a level where you can step in there and win against guys who have probably worked as equally hard as you...

Good luck with whatever the next step is!

You can get a Canuck fan drunk on paint varnish, but w/e you do, don't let him near the keyboard.

I'll give it a real go without the CFH fantasizing...


What is your normal weight division you fight?

Had last 3 fights at 165, and before that was 154...last year. Can't maintain this weight as growing too much and fast and had to cut hard to stay there, so now gonna get to eat, train a bit differently and head on up to 178, light heavy.


What is your style of boxing like? (name the fighter)

Not sure. I use a lot of different styles and am still playing with it. Recently I was working on philly shell and I do keep my hands fairly low. i'm faster then anyone i've fought so far and it isn't even close so can get away with it plus its fun. But I also practice a high tight guard and can go there quick if need be. But mostly good defense, footwork, range control and picking my spots to hit. Have prob not been hit more then 3 or 4 times in a fight, ever. So if that sounds a bit like a Mayweather style, while I can't stand the guy, I suppose it is most similar to that when considering which well-known pro.

What is your favourite punch? Combo?

Left hook. Downstairs upstairs, upstairs hooks from either side.

What is your weakness?

Fight experience. It is hard to get fights. Mostly because I live so far from anywhere else it takes a lot of travel time. Also a lot of people near my age won't fight me and the older match ups can't be sanctioned.

I also am working on my right hand. Trying to bring it to the speed of my left, and the accuracy and comfort in combos. So in short, my right hand I guess.

Well done YB, thanks for sharing.

[HattonTheHammer]

Very interesting. So how tall are you now? And do you think quite possibly in a few years you'll be a HW since you said you're still growing?

[Master]

Light heavy seems too much from the pictures anyway, plus they are big fu88ers up there. You certainly have bulked up since the skinny pictures a year or two ago.

I thought you would be Tommy Hearns style, you look tall and rangy thought you would naturally have a strong right cross.

Really impressed.

Theres hope for us yet then, if you can take out the Canadian Championships at 42 years of age;

Surely I can take out the Northern territories one over here at 51 .

And Lyle can probably take out the Carolinian one @ 30? and win himself a caravan or somethong.

[Salty]

Congrats again brother! Can we expect the fight up on facebook anytime soon?

PS can't rep you, so i'll mentally high five you instead.
