    Your a good scrapper man. nice standing 8 count! I would say keep your left hand up more. He got right hands over the top a few times!

    just curious what weight class are u in,u look a little tense not real smooth however i never was either.although both hands are a little low at times u look to be a natural boxer/counterpuncher.being more of a swarmer myself i couldnt help but notice a huge lack of bodypunching ,wich really can turn the tide on an aggresive opp.well anyways i enjoyed the vid ,post more when u gottem

    good **** man you have a long jab i like how you utilized it it the third to control the pace and when he wanted to slug almost trying to steal the round you werent scared to stand in the pocket and trade good work

    Im a light-heavyweight (81kg/178lbs). Yea mate.. i get super nervous before i fight! Its something i still havent worked on. As for the body punching.. i was being pretty lazy. I knew pretty early i was a bit better then him, no disrespect to him, so didnt have to throw right hands or body punch,not that im a massive body puncher anyway really i struggle with it because im a bit taller, (or hooks or uppercuts) and could win the fight just of the jab and stay pretty fresh for the fight i had a couple of days later.

    Heres the link to the thread about my 3rd fight..

    Yea.. I look super skinny in both those, not sure why.. possibly because of where its filmed or something. In reality im pretty big and really, really struggle like **** to make 81kg.

    Took the words right out of my mouth. Good work with that long jab.

    It's pretty cool that you get someone to tape the fights that actually kind of knows what they're doing, plus the commentator is a nice touch.

    U did very well mate, i'm a 1-0 middleweight am from qld. liked how you controlled your own distance in that fight. i have a similar style being a pretty rangy puncher. In the future if you want to keep them off you to control the speed of the bout use a few heavy rights to the head and body, can sometimes make the other bloke hesitant.
