    You are young and learning. But you did pretty good. Feint, head movement, jab, All those good ideas to work on. So I agree with the other posters. Leading with the right is a good move, but not to be used all the time. Used that jab!! And dont always aim to the head. Trying aiming to the opponent's chest once in a while.

    You have a good straight right, but you need to use your jab with a bit more authority. Also, it seemed like you felt the need to initiate rather than wait for your opponent to step in. It's all about scoring punches in the amatuers, so there is no point taking a couple of shots if your not certain you are going to land cleanly. Make him miss, and with a bit more head movement you will be on the right road.
    When I was boxing, I used to do the exact same thing. Feed off the crowd and look to throw punches non stop for 3 rounds. But with experience, I began to think more in the ring and take my time, pick my shots.

    Hope the feedback helps. And look forward to seeing your next bout.

    Better than last time, but i agree with the fact that you flagged bad in the last, you may not think it at the time. But yer stamina needs working on, try a spinning class with a brutal instructor who'll have yer lungs hanging outer yer ears in 5 minutes.

    When my son was 20 he was having his 10th fight & i got him into a spinning class with me & he near on collapsed & threw up after 10 minutes, i never saw him again for a year:lol:

    Whats up Gpater:good Early on you show good balance and your right was good at times but i thought you were throwing it way to much. I think you should jab a lot more and work off it. Around the 2:27 mark you did a little nice move. Also more head movement hopefully this will improve in time. But id really stress working off your Jab more.

    Good fight:good Im sure you will learn off of it, you had better skills than the other kid,just got to fix some things.

    as others have said on here and i keep saying it too.work on your jab, throwing double rather then singles.also, ithink after a few right leads your opponent is going to know whats coming.
    the head and lateral movement will come in time, you're still only classed as a novice (aren't you ??) so there's plenty of time time to learn.
    nothing wrong with your bottle anyway.10/10 in fact

    All has been said I guess, head movement is what I first thought of.

    Your improving Greg... You need to work on your power and also your not effective at long range. Too slow to let your straight lefts and rights go, too much posing on the punch bag i'll bet. Don;t be afraid to let the longer range shots go, ok they won't always look that impressive but they will get you the W. Thought you were pretty good- honest no BS assesment.

    Thanks.

    I'm hitting a lot harder these days, you dont see it well on the video but I was hurting him (and I aint bsing either)

    I felt kinda nervous in the fight and wasnt relaxed.

    Im fighting in the scottish later in the year should have some vides of that and it is against aot better class of oppositon im used to.
