    I like your boxing style it is smooth, composed and skillful. Reminds me of Oba Carr, who was a favourite boxer of mines.

    Well done. I am glad Glenn Johnson is training, he has a mountain of knowledge to share.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    You get anyone's ppv, you have no taste.

    Great technique and body position throughout! Honestly, can see similarities between your style and The Road Warrior's: hands held high with a tight guard, consistent pressure, good use of your jab, always on balance and set to punch, and the biggest similarity is your use of the right hand. You are very effective at chopping with the right over a low left hand or lazy jab (your opponent's, obviously). Keep up the hard work and training, will pay off in the long run. Hesitate to give unsolicited advice (and can't come close to what Mr. Johnson can provide), but found my biggest issues/losses came when I focused on the name/accomplishments of the other guy, vice the things I could and needed to control like body position, defense, distance, technique...etc. Focus on the mental aspects and with the way you are fighting now you will go very far.

    For what it's worth, I've deployed 6 times to combat, and understand that certain feelings/memories tend to have a significant effect on your mood/state of mind. That being said, you didn't ask to be put in those horrible positions, you were placed there. Don't assume blame for a situation you were powerless to stop, accept that in order to survive horrible situations, you were forced to see and conduct unpleasant acts. Your country and fellow citizens owe you a great debt of gratitude for your bravery and sacrifice. Be proud of your service, but feel free to criticize or disagree with those who forced you to be in those situations and make those decisions. If you ever feel overwhelmed or alone, please talk to someone and get help. Thank you for your service/sacrifice!!!

    Thanks! Yeah its funny people tell me i fight like him even though im not trying to. People dont know it but body position is so damn important in boxing almost more than anything else man. I swear im a stickler for it because when its off by even a little everything else feels like its off and not coming out right. When that happens i always have to come back to how my body is placed, where are my arms, am i angled etc
    Also its more tiring to things out of postion

    So far, I think that you have a lot going for yourself, technique and movement are pretty smooth and you have a very good speed. Keep it going bud, you could get pretty far.

    Hello friend! Glen Johnson is a legend, not much he hasn't done or seen in the sport so a great guy to learn from I'm sure!
