    I must say I did WAY better then my first time. I felt the first round was my best rounder ever in both amateur fights, so that's a big plus... I'm improving. Anyways, this is my second fight, training for about a year and a half... Just looking for tips.. Sorry about the poor camera footage, someone doesn't know how film, but what ever. Please give me tips, advice, ANYTHING, specifically against a guy who would walk me down and get me tired expending my energy.. (I didn't know WTF to do!!)

    I wish I could... But the next nearest gym that's not a "LA Boxing" is pretty far. far. My trainer has a very "Mexican" style that he tries to put me in and my gym is mostly Mexican.. My style is just different but I admit I have learned many things sparring all those fools.

    Hey mate,

    Good fight! I really enjoyed it.

    First off, good job establishing the jab early.. I personally feel this is a good tool to use against southpaws (everyone mentions the right hand and occasionally left hook but no one mentions the jab) only thing I think you should've added would be feinting the jab and then coming with a left hook, I've found it works well against SP.

    I think one thing you need to work on is either smothering or clinching, there were times (around 6:20-end of round in the 2nd & 8:30 or so in the 3rd where you really could've used them)

    The right to the body seemed to be there for you a lot, particularly as you were backing up and he was coming forward and you were both sort of in no-mans land.. throw a "throwaway jab" just to get his attention and then follow it with a right to the body.

    Overall I thought it was a good fight, and quite close. I thought you dealt with him very well and I agree with scrap you definitely have the makings of a good fighter.

    I think when you were going forward you were lunging in too much with your punches. And sometimes you back pedal so you ended up on the ropes a lot. Instead of back pedaling when the opponent is coming forward just bump into him then spin out and just keep throwing your jabs. But you did good slipping and ducking his power punch. Nice job!

    Move with purpose; you are currently wasting a lot of movement and thus expending a ton of energy. But that is a matter of experience. I would suggest watching Buddy McGirt vs Simon Brown.

    Brown is the larger, stronger fighter, trying to walk McGirt down and wanting to fight inside. McGirt wants to stay away but also needs to get in, land his punches and get away. You can learn from his economy of movement, how he moves to keep Brown from getting set, how he closes distance, and how he finishes his combinations but getting out without getting hit.
