    Watch his combination

    First try at the Punching Bag, watch how intense he punch with the Straight.

    [YT]AJxGHfTicfQ[/YT]
    Watch he shoulder roll in this fight. He don't want to hit his small cousin in the face. He don't want to hurt him.

    [YT]XvcyTFCdlc0[/YT]
    Watch his Jab, uppercut combination in the beginning of the Clip.

    All this with no Training. He's a natural.

    I agree with that. Nice video, no more than that.
    In soccer I've seen several "next big thing for sure" coming along, even being called that by former top players, and none of them ever even made it pro.

    Good luck to the kid, but the odds are heavily in favour that we never hear anything of this kid again in the future.

    totally agree

    it only proves that you could teach that a ******

    but it doesnt mean anything, of course he will be a local school badboy but thats all we can assume

    otherwise it means the succes in that and every sport actually wouldnt depend on your talent but just how early did you started training

    The real reason this kid might amount to nothing is that his Dad also weight trains him. There are other videos of him doing weights and he is RIPPED to **** for a 6 year old. That is a bad bad move for a child, it will stunt his growth and he wont develop properly. He may also start having joint problems by the time he is a teenager and will be burnt out before he hits 20.

    It is ****ing ******ed to have such a naturally gifted kid, who is also clearly very patient and smart and to ruin it by making him strong and muscular before his body has finished its natural growth.

    He should start doing light weights when he is about 13 and not at ****ing 6.

    I tell you what the more of those other videos you watch, the ones posted above and other ones on Youtube etc, the more that kid Prettyboy Bam Bam stands out as a phenomenal natural talent.

    The other kids throw punches like a child who likes boxing or MMA. They throw shots like someone who has been taught a bit or watched a lot, but as you would expect like a kid or someone with no real training. Wide, wailing, no natural guard that is a default setting when not throwing etc etc.

    That kid Bam Bam has a better technique than some pro fighters, not an exaggeration. He holds a disciplined guard for the entire session and turns the hand over when punching, throws clean shots with the knuckle part of the glove and is so switched on that he is throwing exact combinations based on his Dads instructions.

    He is incredible. And the other thing that stands out especially when you watch say that MMA kid above..is how incredible fit Bam Bam is. A child of that age should be exhausted way before the routine ends. Look how sloppy and lurching the MMA kid becomes quite quickly, he falls over and you can see how tired his arms are.

    Bam Bam goes through a vigorous routine and maintains pop in his shots and keeps the guard and shape intact.

    As talented kids go he is pretty special.

    Also everyone saying child prodigys never make it....Tiger Woods and Lewis Hamilton were both child phenomenons in their sports.

    I think you have to choose the sport to love it, so hopefully along with that he actually likes to do it. Also everything changes when you get hurt. I used to be into skiing really hard, like flips and spins and rails and all that. And kids would come out of nowhere and be doing crazy things, but the second they took a big fall they were scared as ****, kids don't understand the consequences at that point. Also, they're bodies were so messed up from doing that from a young age, none of these kids broke 5'9 even at 18 and 19, most were about 5'5 and lower.

    It's an impressive video but I don't think he'll make it anywhere.

    I heard the same thing ... what a coward ... it would be like taking candy from a baby.

    Floyd needs to fight this kid to secure his legacy as an ATG ...
