Sparred the High School Bully last night.

[donnydarkoIRL]

When I was in secondary school, there was this guy in my year. He had stayed back a year in primary school and he was a Lot bigger than anyone in our year. He was of course a year older and therefore bigger, but he was also naturally big, to this day he's a big strong guy that towers over most,

He bullied a lot of kids, mostly by taunting and teasing them, but sometimes by beating them up. In school I was really short (only a featherweight til I was 17) he never really gave me hassle, as we lived close together, but there was the odd smart comment I ignored. He did however talk about me behind my back and say what he'd do to me if I ever fought on the street.

I received a text message yesterday; "I'm going to hurt you." Totally puzzled I wondered what this guy was on about as I hadn't heard from him in a year or so.
That night in training I arrived and he was there with all his mates. My trainer had told him I'd spar with him...The penny dropped. I felt a twinge of real hate, but John (my trainer) told me to take it nice and easy. Ok I said.

In the spar I did start easy, but he came out like a whirlwind, I tapped his guard and headgear and he swung for the fences, his friends screaming encouragement, they thought it was a fight. Then he clipped me. A hard one, I didn't falter or even stumble but the switch clicked. I remeber reading Rocky Graziano's description ofwhat he felt like fighting Zale the second tim and I understood.

"Fine, Fuck you then!" I threw a straight right and he's against the ropes.

"I'd love to rip your fucking throat out" I hammered a left hook to the head and a right hand on the nose, his 6ft 4 body started to flap.

"Take this you fucking cunt!" I fired an uppercut into his abdomen and he collapsed onto the ring apron.

My blood was boiling and John let the spar go on. I can only presume John let it go because he saw what they guy tried to do and had brought his friends to see it. My mind was racing, all sorts of vile hateful thoughts racing through my mind. I let everything I had fly and sliced open his nose and mouth, he was crying leaving the gym. One of his friends that I know vaguely approached me after saying, "wow you got tough!" I looked him directly in the eye and told him I'd always been this way LoL

Honestly, I've never had the animalistic side of me show so much, I'm usually the calmest boxer imaginable, but yesterday was different I loved hurting him.

I loved reading that! If only every one of the people he bullied were there watching you beat this bastard up...

Did you give him a Ricky Hatton left hook to the ribs? that would be a nice one also.. Although I pictured that uppercut rocking the shit out of him!

Reps coming your way if it allows..

Hopefully he stupidly comes back for more

[donnydarkoIRL]

He He actually the uppercut put him down, in fairness he got back up too!

But man I NEVER get like that in boxing. I always lay back and observe it and if I get clipped I just go defensive, I can't believe the reaction he inspired in me.

Honestly it felt so good, it felt like a drug or something.

[Dizaster]

Their was a guy like that at my primary school and high school who was a major ass.... ALL through primary school he used to beat up one of my friends on a regular basis.. In school, out of school, anywhere he saw him, he'd beat him up...
Highschool it happened a little less but still happened..

My friend started boxing for a few years after high school though, and about 3 years ago (about 23 y/o) my friend was driving along the main street of our town and saw this bully standing on a street corner... He just pulls on his brake in the middle of the road, jumps out, walks over to the guy and beats the CRAP out of him back...

I don't condone street fighting (even you sounded like you took the sparring session seriously until he came out trying to knock your head off) but that guy had tormented my friend for 10 years straight and he had that final revenge beating coming to him for a LONG time...


Justice has been handed out by Donny

[donnydarkoIRL]

For real!!!
He pulled up and put a beating on him!
Bullying is a terrible affliction, the mental damage it can cause is pretty gruesome and for me at least I love seeing a guy getting his comeupence.

I know thats pretty crude and probably sounds awful, but I mean it, I hate bullies and what they do, even If I never really was a victim of anything serious. Like you said though, it was a spar to me, until he used his size advantage to attempt to injure me....God bless expierience I say!

You ever have any problem with bullies Diz?

[leftylee]

Well done mate, Bullies are just cunts and when there are they're own they shit their pants, well done for showing him who's boss.

I don't like fighting i.e. street fighting, i feel there's no need for it and I try and stay clear of shit like that.

Good story to hear Donny i had something similar happened but not quite like that, anyway these pair of hooligans would pick on my mom when she left the house, she isn't very well and they took advantage of that like cowards, i always used to try and catch them in the act but never could, so one day me and my mate stayed in the all day and when my mom left the house me and my mate followed her but not too close, anyway i caught them in the act and me and my mate gave them the hiding of there life, there never done it again. That just goes to show you bullies shit there pants when its fair fight they always pick on weak people to make there ego's look bigger pathetic. But your story was great to hear Donny i love it when bullies get taught a lesson great stuff.

I also had a similar experience when I was in High School. One of my classmates who would usually bully my classmates tried to bully me. He challenged me for a karate showdown in our classroom. I showed him who's the boss by using some Muay Thai on him and from that time on , he never tried to challenge me again.When I became his senior officer in the Citizen Army Training, I would usually punish him without me feeling afraid and hesitant.I know I can take him any time.

It's nice to be tested and passed it......

Great to read about you putting this guy in his place. Bullying in any form is the most cowardly act.

I was bullied by three kids at school for almost a year. My dad took me to a friend of his who years before trained fighters in Ireland. I trained with him and sparred with his sons like my life depended on it almost every day for 6 months.

The next time the three of them caught me after school I just stood waiting saying nothing. One of them waded in and caught me on top of the head which hurt his hand more than me - while he was shaking his hand I hit him with as hard a right hand as an 11 year old could throw and actually broke his nose. The teachers who were usless actually suspended ME for that but it was worth it

So true. That deserves some rep.

That’s the way to do business Donny. Sometimes that’s how it goes in sparring. I once sparred a nutcase in my camp who tossed them low on frustration , mainly because he couldn’t do me in . , hell I let it go a few times , but once i realized the pattern me piss got hot ! So i gave him some of that same shit right back , let him feel the full force of the left hook to the dice see what he think ! The cunt lay there on the canvas for a full 10 min doubled up.. needless to say we never sparred again. haha . my lead trainer was also his lead trainer ,gave me a tounge lashin. was pissed something fierce... however me second whispered in my ear , had a grin on his face ,said to me
" That’s the way to do business son , don't take no shit from nobody ".
Enjoyed your read .. CC.. take care of yourself Donny, best of luck to you in the future .. - Godbless.

Wicked! have you text him back asking his dress size yet?

[Andre]

Oh watch your back now bro,whats thats old expression,Hell have no fury like a woman scorned .

[donnydarkoIRL]

Actually feared I was going to get a bit of flak for this thread, but I guess everyone resents some bully they met in their past.

I know, without doubt, this guy left some psychologiucal scars on a number of my old school colleagues. It really angers me that someone would do such a thing and I vehemently disagree with anyone who thinks they have the right to treat others like that.

[Sharla]

Wicked! have you text him back asking his dress size yet?

While I guess I should find that slightly offensive I'm too busy thinking it's funny

In fact I tend to think guys like this are most likely to falsely think being manly is about being an Ahole I think it's an entirely appropriate comeback to his original text

I also agree though he might be out for revenge and too cowardly to go one on one with his fists again so be careful Donny!
