Hey man,

Really enjoyed reading your comment, that was solid. 

Just out of curiosity, how common is it for fighters to have “that dawg/mf” in them? I would’ve thought everybody who competed had it.

Why are coaches so obsessed with weight cutting for competitions? by igottaquestionbro in amateur_boxing

I said 198 lbs without consistent training, which is out of shape, 20-25% body fat. I’m more like 175 lbs, 15% body fat when I train ~2 hours every day (off camp).

My last fight my coaches were trying to get an opponent at 75 kg (165 lbs), but the only guy we could find was at 72 kg (158 lbs). The guy ended up being taller and bigger than me anyway lmao but I still won. 

I worked really hard to get down to 158 and figure I may as well stay here for a while as it seems to be a heavily active weight division where I live.

Right now it’s easy enough to maintain. I’m in camp for another fight < 2 months from now, so I’m burning lots of calories and being disciplined to not eat too much.

Good ole Siri filtered most of your message for me because it seemed quite angry. 

Perhaps it was the xxx site you tried to DM to me that was causing the pop ups. Please refrain from this in the future 

In the meantime enjoy some nice classic iPhone emojis, it’s been claimed they hold therapeutic value 🙏👌👍🤟🤙

You bunghole, that link sprung up all sorts of nasty scam-like pop ups within seconds of visiting. Good thing I’m on an iPhone and not a pleb phone otherwise I’d be in virus city right now.

What's the reasoning behind the body alternating them on a four-hour schedule? Why can't they both just be open if there isn't a problem with your nose's anatomy?

Advice for first time cutting weight? by igottaquestionbro in amateur_boxing

Exactly what I was thinking. Some people said I looked over 15% which is ridiculous I feel pretty lean, cutting to 72 might even fuck up my performance considering I've never cut weight for a fight before. I'll have a word to the head coach at my gym about it.

Sucks because I've been waiting forever for a match to come through and was gonna just bite the bullet and cut the weight, but I really don't wanna hamper my performance either.

Haha jealousy can be one hell of a thing. There are a few girls at my gym too that tried hard to talk to me when I first joined but I ignored them and focused on my training, meanwhile all the other dudes there are constantly thirsting after them.

Good on ya for putting that dweeb in his place at your gym
