    3 min rounds will be a killer first time around. Trust me.

    Cheers, yeah I know there would be no shame in losing. It's obviously a lot harder to win than some think but I do really intend on winning.

    The money is part of it, but I also don't like using head guards as well. I just like the pro-style rules more.

    I lost today folks. Found out just before the fight the guy I was against was a former K-1 British Super Heavyweight kick-boxing champ just before the fight. The guy had over 50 K-1 fights. I was basically told KO him or lose. I came out, cut him hurt him and then got KO'd. I was stitched up.

    post the vid, I actually cant believe that you did this and the whole "I dont like headguard "thing to not go Ametuer boxing makes zero sense.

    A novice with no fights at all fighting in 3 minute rounds with 10oz pro fight gloves is a receipe for disaster/

    Post the vid though :p

    Unlucky mate. Who said KO him or lose? And they put you in with a 50 fight experienced guy... Your promoter sounds like a ****.
    Actually in this case he should keep his chin down :deal
