Yeh I'm quite stiff backed. I will be working on the torque tommorow. Good advice. To be fair the guy i fought was a midget, I'm only 5'10.
Thoroughly enjoyed that, Greg. You are MUCH improved. Busy as hell, changing up angles, not afraid to let the other guy blow for a while and you come back strong. That right hand, when it comes into its own will be a thing of beauty. Congratulations, and as another poster said, I am proud of you!
its the late alan rudkin.one of the greatest british fighters never to win a world title.he died recently
I'm gonna log in a little later to check up on you. Gotta run for now, buddy. But I just wanted to congratulate you on a great win. Wish you the best on Friday!
You really look good! Made som great progress. You control distance well with good footwork and, especially, you're much cooler in the defensive; keeping the guard up, moving your head, not making any unnecessary moves and leaving openings. You could perhaps have worked his body more, though; at the times when he was covering up and protecting his head with both arms. There were some nice opening to the body you probably could have exploited more there. And when you threw a straight right to the body you bent your back instead of your legs and opened yourself to a counter. But that was perhaps only a one-off. As others have said, you threw some arm punches as well, but also some very nice ones. Especially the jab and the right cross. But that's just minor stuff. All in all you looked really good.:good
Mate great performance! Felt that you showcased a really nice jab in the early going and that uppercut at 6.45... OWCH! Keep it up, look forward to watching your next fight.
Great first round Greg. Your balance was good and you used your height and let the fight come to you very relaxed. Thats your biggest attribute, your reach, keep using it. Keep working your jab to setup your power shots even when you got the guy hurt like you did, forget that ratatat stuff, your going to do more damage with some nice balanced two three shot combos. You kind of got caught there rushing in a few times going for the stoppage once you got the standing 8. Also mix in a little body attack when you got him against the ropes like that. Overall nice fight, great first round.
Right, I also fought Friday night as in 2 days ago. Sorry this is in different parts but I can't change that. And for some reason part of round 2 is missing. I am in blue again. The guy I was fighting was 20 or 21 and very strong, I felt. I also think he was roughly 2-3KGs heavier which is 4-7lbs heavier. I went a bit to war in this fight and its a humdinger. I lost a majority decision by 1 point, I think I lost it in the last round as I was buzzed by a right hand and gave away a few points because of it. Still I felt it could have went either way. I'm fighting this guy again on Friday this week.
