    It was the end of a two hour training session. We were doing cool down exercises when Efrain asked about inside fighting and combinations. That led to a mini 6 punch combination competition. They were all trying to out speed the old man. Victor Bravo is the most fun to do mitts with. He is so darn fast!

    It's great to see the work you do with those kids. They look really enthusiastic and genuinely look to be enjoying themselves.

    :good

    You beat me!!:twisted::p

    I have a 10 yr. old boy. It gets tough to keep up, sometimes not always physically, but spiritually too. One gets caught up on tryin' to stay on top of work etc.

    Thanks for the props but when you love something it is easy to do. We have a local tournament coming up on the 16 of July. Brandon Rios will be there and we want to be ready to go to war!

    That's surely not his name? No-one has a name that awesome.

    The kid is destined for greatness.

    He watches with me. Knows a good bit etc.

    If I thought he REALLY wanted to do it, I guess I could relocate a few hundred miles up to Jack Loew country.:p

    Being 1000% honest, I have no knowledge of any programs or gyms in my area to get kids into boxing.

    may be something over in Louisville, KY....about 4 or 5 hrs of haulin' ass.

    or up to Youngstown, about the same. Nothing local at all, and I'd imagine you'd want to ease your kid into boxing. (or atleast, at this point, I would mine...:yep....cause boxing ain't no bull****)

    That is indeed an awesome name.

    Seems like he has the type of body that's built for speed. The skinny athletic ones are always the fastest.

    **Following SportsLeader....AGAIN!....:p

    But yeah, if that is the kid's real name, that's cool/cooler sounding than Tyson Fury.


    How many kids do you coach Flatlander?
