There's fuck all people kickboxing in Ireland. Being ranked #1 isn't a huge achievement, honestly.

I know a lad who won a championship title after 3 fights.

I have this weird style where i hit the bags and pads like a pro, but spar like someone who's never laced up a pair of gloves.

There could be a hundred reasons.
I can relate. When I spar I sometimes get too concerned with conserving energy. So my shots sometimes land short, or half-heartedly.
Then when I compete, I actually try to kill my opponent. So I find i have more of a killer instinct when I compete.
