Taking Beatings & Forgetting Names

Bummer, dude.

At least you learned a few things. Now you can come in even better next time.
 
While I doubt any one would ever find out, USA Boxing gets kind of weird about people posting their fights on youtube. Apparently, they threatened a guy with revoking his license for posting a fight a few months back.

Aside from that, they attract a lot of comments from people who tell me why I suck. Ill keep it up for a bit for the training log regulars, but then Ill make the video private again.
 
Understood. i didn't realize they were hardasses like that.
 
wow I thought at first "how the fuck does that guy weigh 168lbs" then I saw his legs..

I think you could have tried to stay abit closer to him, it looked like you were always in his range but rarely in yours. Although he did quite a good job when you did step in, by throwing alot of punches to stop you from getting any offence.

Either way, good job meng! WAR SCHATZY!

When is the next one?

They CAN be. Like I said, I doubt they would find out, and Im not even sure why they care, but thats the rumor.

Its just as much for the people who I dont know seeing and making comments on the video as anything else.
 
It sucks because my lady friend is in san fran right now. If i would have had a few months in advance I would have came out to the fight.

Well, you're right. I definitely needed to get inside a bit more. I did it right the first time (about 20-30 seconds into the 1st round), and landed some good shots. After that, I tried to shell up and come inside, and thats when I got TOO close. I was smothering myself, and neither one of us could get anything done in there. Its a bummer, because I have been working on keeping my punch volume up high in sparring, and I usually throw a lot more punches. I have to admit, he threw me off my game, and I had a real hard time getting going due to his reach and height.
 
Well, regardless. You got in there and fought. You didn't punk out and you didn't get knocked out. Props Missus!
 
yeh, tbh he looked good. No shame in losing to a guy like that.

He WAS good. He had some good head and body movement, and actually got under a lot of punches...something you dont see a lot of tall guys do. Some good body work inside as well, ANOTHEr thing tall guys usually cant do.

Anyway, back to work...

I thought you looked good in there. He just seemed so much taller with a long reach. He wasn't a slouch by any means either. He had some good movements.

I got only one comment on my heavy bag work through youtube, and it was "u fuckin suck". Lol.

That is really, really dick, but pretty funny.

I thought you did good, especially later on in the rounds. He was just really able to control the range and use his reach effectively.

I agree with you on the smothering part, I'm pretty short, so I often try to get inside too, and tend to smother my punches instead of getting in that middle range where I can really deliver with power.

Thats pretty much it in a nutshell man. He fought his fight, and was able to make me do what he wanted instead of what I wanted. I waited too long to figure him out, and ran out of time. 6 minutes goes fast.

The frustrating thing is that I have really been working on my inside game, and thats typically an area where I do well. Against this guy, in my haste to get inside, I just got too far in and smothered what should have been hard shots.
