Had my first kickboxing match last night after 3 months of training. This has been my first every boxing/kickboxing/mma match of any kind. Before this point of my life I have done a grappling tournament, played high school basketball, and played competitive paintball. I was AMAZED at how much more cardio I needed.
I lost on a split decision. I gassed hard at about the 1:30 mark of the second round. I won round one easily, the judges split on round 2, and I lost round 3 (judges caught me afterwards and said until the last 20 seconds, I was winning) after a straight right caught me and my legs were so rubbery I fell down.
I felt like I had better hands then the other guy (who had previous boxing matches) and did more damage. However, in the second, he "looked" more busy and that is why I lost it on two judges cards. I busted him up good in the first and start of the second.
I really need more cardio and had no idea just how much I would need.
Enjoy: (I am the one with the Red trunks)
There are more photo's on the album. I just tried to pick the best ones. There is one when I was down (from a nut shot) that is down right depressing.
