Main3s Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Okay so for those who care, here are a few pics from my boxing match on Friday. Scheduled for 3 rounds (Hey it's amateur) and your winner by way of the judges score cards... Chris "The Main Event" Maines (aka Super_GTP). Though I’ve been at this for about a year now, I can honestly say this was the hardest fight I’ve ever been in. Tony, they guy I was fighting, was very good and about 5 inches taller then me. His downside was his cockiness and that every time I landed a solid punch he would get upset and stop “boxing” and start brawling. I out boxed him in the first 2 rounds and did most of my damage early on but ran out of gas mid way through the 3rd so I spent the last 1:30 moving, blocking, and tying him up. It really took me to the next level as we were both trying to take each other head off and damn near did a few times… Now for the pics (I'm in the white gloves) enjoy! http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/2-1.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/3.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/4.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/6.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/7.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/13.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/13-1.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/12.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/11.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/10.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/8.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/cmaines01/9.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I had time to be in good enough shape to do it. It's really fun, even if ou only do light sparring. You get a damn good work out and get to mix it up a bit without getting your head knocked off.

Main3s Posted December 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 how serious of a league is that really, i mean you are wearing nike 6.0 skate shoes... It’s not a league or anything. It’s just a fight that our gym holds every month as a way to step it up a notch. You can get in the ring every time you go up if you want & there’s someone willing to step in with you. And sparing with someone is a bit different then going in and fighting them. So the first Friday of every month they hold Friday Night fights. It gives those of us who aren’t quite ready for real amateur bout something to train and work towards. You get in there with someone who has similar experience and go at it in front of a crowd. And even though it’s not anything “official” the intensity is there and we have a lot of good fighters. We also have a few pro’s and armatures that fight out of the gym too. My goal is to be ready to fight in the golden gloves competition next year. hey i bet you know josh schmidt. he boxes there too. he lives and works just up the street with me. one goofy kid. i watched the last boxing match they had there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkyJqEib6ZY (part 1 of 2) Hahah, yeah I know him, I've even been in the ring with him a few times. He just needs a little more confidence or aggression and he’d be a lot better. He’s taller and has a good right, but doesn’t throw a good enough jab yet to keep people away, so everything that’s in his favor kind of goes out the window. But he’ll get better; he’s up there almost every time I am and seems to be willing to learn, and that’s all it takes. I was actually going to fight him this past Friday but I wanted to really go at it with someone this time, someone who wouldn’t be afraid to hit back, someone who would test me. So I asked for this Tony kid instead. Nothing against your friend but he’s not really at that level yet. Small world though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractor Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hehe for me a light working would mean I lay on the floor trying to breath at this point. Been way to long since I've done much of anything except walking while carrying gear at work. Used to do Karate when I was 16-19 and was in excellent shape, but got busy with work and life and got out of it like most people do.

Main3s Posted December 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hehe for me a light working would mean I lay on the floor trying to breath at this point. Been way to long since I've done much of anything except walking while carrying gear at work. Used to do Karate when I was 16-19 and was in excellent shape, but got busy with work and life and got out of it like most people do. I know what you mean; I was working 2 jobs for the longest after H.S. Got into a steady relationship and just didn't care. Then I was asked to be on a softball team at work with a bunch of older guys,(40-50 year olds) guys who have been behind a desk most of their carriers. Was in the outfield and after sprinting for a few pop ups I was out of breath. I looked around at the guys I work with and thought. I don’t want to be this way when I’m their age. Something that I was always interested in was boxing. I got into it, loved it and the rest is history. I’m not ripped or anything and I’m probably not the strongest person I know, but I can run laps around most anyone and endurance is amazing (that’s what she said) I know I’m in excellent shape and I’m doing it while enjoying another chapter to my life. I went to the doctors a few weeks ago after I broke my thumb. My resting heart rate was 43, 46 and 44. They took it 3 times it was so low. Apparently 50-100 is normal 50-40 is common in most athletes. Hahaha If you get a change to get back into something do it! You’ll thanks yourself later.

HotCarl Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 . Sullivan Brother GYm off of Sawmill Rd Did they move? Last time I was there it was a real nice space just a bit small, from the pics it looks like they moved to a bigger facility. Always felt kinda out of place working out there, maybe it was b/c I was the only one there at times? Nice place wish i could go again sometime.

Yeah they moved about 7-8 months ago just accrss the street. It's a much bigger building. Their first one was small no doubt. anymore it's either packed full or there are very few people there. It all dependes on when you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
