Did you make your weight class? Did you get the results you were after?

Im in the best shape I have ever been, My intensity levels are so high the other day I went 12 rounds before feeling weak in the legs...Im in GREAT SHAPE!

I've gotten the results I wanted and some :)

My weight flucuates, Im 121 now and looking real lean...I've actually kept a lot of my muscle...I've even gotten my waist down to 26" and I had my body fat checked by the doctor and it was like 3.4% around that area...

Im geared up and ready to go :)

I owe it to you, You put me on track and in the right direction. Chalk another one up on the board for you. :big_smile:

I've sparred with the kid before, which will basically be the same thing...I went 6 3 minute rounds and instead we will be 4 2 minute rounds.....With headgear and all so it should be easy....

The kid throws punches from weird angles and doesnt move he is an inch shorter then me....I've excelled on my footwork so graciously, I can move side to side back and forth even diagnol if I have to...Plus my trainer has taught me how to switch hit, switching from orthodox to southpaw....


He is in trouble...Hopefully.

I will try and pop by every once in a while like now though..


Veda-Hey a long time off is needed from these boards, when I left everything was really sour and has turned me away from reading a lot of peoples posts....


Charlie-Thanks for the support, Some day if I am in your neck of the woods, I will have to lay an overhand right onto that bull of yours and practice my footwork :big_smile: J/K

Pritchard-Havent gotten to upload my new pics yet, Will around mid November, Keep up with your goals!

Hec-I will keep people here updated on my fights, The gym I am attending now takes their boxers all of the U.S. for tournaments so im sure I will be rounding around some peoples places for sure....

Thanks Everybody! :love:

Nice to see you pop back in Goldengloves.

I know what you mean about things being a little sour, but seems to have settled down again the last week or so.

Good luck with your boxing :)

Good to hear from you again GG. We were talking about you and your upcoming fight in my karate class last week. Let us know how it goes. Oh, and I learned that my instructor is succeptible to that overhand right you mentioned. He's a Southpaw.

Good luck, kick @$$, post pics.
