    WOW!!!
    Its apparent this kid will be good in the future.
    I remember when i used to train here at home my brother would watch and wanted me to train him. He was only ten at the time and just taught him some combinations and simple boxing technique. He caught on very fast and his speed and pop amazed me.
    I remember one time i was just swinging the bag at him back and forth and telling him to step to the side and throw a simple 1-2 to immitate a guy rushing him since most guys wrestle when you fight around here. And he did the 1-2 like i told him at first then out of nowhere he started throwing some quick ****ing combinations then stepping to either side and just followed up.
    He has some serious talent still as apparent by his street fighting record. He was fighting 8th graders as a 10 year and beating them up. He definately learned how to box good but just lost interest in it.
    I think he could have been even made a career if trained properly. Its a shame he lost interest.

    No wonder Calzaghe is moving up in weight class now.

    He's talking about his brother, not about the kid from the video.
