    Well this is the first round, the chap i was fighting - in yellow - had one bout in the past.

    He had quite a bit of support, 30-40, one tried jumping in half way through the second round which was nice.

    Who do you think one the first round?

    You move too much and blow your load too fast. You must've been really tired the last round. But that's usually how it goes in a first fight

    Not bad for a first fight. What's up with the upperhookthing at 1:58? Besides that and the all-too-common absence of amateur body work, you're a good athlete and your jab looks pretty solid for a first fight. Keep it up!

    Yeah as said, I've seen worse first fights! You picked some nice shots but needed to relax and let your punches flow a bit more, but as it was your first fight with an away crowd, it's understandably difficult.

    I have no idea what I was doing with the uppercut, in my head it looked a lot better. My trainer had a word about that afterwards.

    I was very tired in the 3rd, but my shots were better in the third as I wasn't moving about so much, I was hitting straight through his guard.

    Few beginner amateurs know how to land body shots without getting countered.

    I've been training for like a year myself and the only body shot I can land safe is a straight to the stomach which I set up with a jab to the head

    You looked a bit messy for the first half, it looked like you were wind-milling in.

    I only mentioned it because the effectiveness of his jab left his opponent wide open to left hooks to the body on at least 4 occasions. Good job for his first fight though.

    Looked pretty good for a first fight. It seemed at first Like you were kinda forcing your shots at first but still good for first fight.

    Yeah, he just tried to get me in the corner and unleash shots. Need to work on my corner work, had a habit of 'running'. Need to turn him and get him on the ropes.

    I thought i was just moving out the way but my coaches wernt happy haha.

    As previously said you need to sort the movement out, you picked some nice shots though mate.
