The Raven Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Good luck mate. I used to Kickbox alot however losing the sight in one eye for two weeks kind of put me off. Id love to try MMA just for the fitness side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_jekyll Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 what is it you do mate? mma, kickboxing? im excited now let alone on the night! ive already upped training to 3 times a week and going on runs inbetween want to be on top form! i did kickboxing when i was a bit younger , but my first "big" fight as an adult was boxing . i trained like mad leading up to it , i stoped the other guy who had 6 fights in the first round so i was extatic, the best advice i can give is enjoy it and express yourself. and see everybody you hate on the other side of the ring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0lly Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Good luck man. How long have you been training for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 Good luck, what weight class are you fighting in? 75kgs, which i think is welterweight http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4138487&id=21534408383 i used to box but then joined a cage fighting club. just felt so unnatural on the floor so decided to stick to my roots and go for kick boxing. feel much more comfy i was boxing for about 6 months and been doing kickboxing about 3 months so its all been a bit quick but when i was younger i done karate fr 5 yrs as my dad was a instructor so its always been in my blood thats why it hasnt taken me long to be put into a fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 i never liked the grapeling and wrestling, im 6ft 4 and 14 stone so boxing was far more suited to me , and iv allways had verry fast hands for my size , only thing that let me down was my temprament, as they say" power is nothing without controll ".

L33 Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 thats whats surprised my instructor as i have fast powerful hands thats why i was moved into the fight team training sessions then asked to fight im fairly controlled but do have a big of a aggression problem but usually is to my advantage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgeer Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Will you have to cut much weight for the fight, whats your natural weight? I've always been impressed with the way fighters cut so much weight it must be torture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 ive been 75kgs for over a year just hope i dont gain to much muscle and put on weight with all the extra training my instructor has a fight coming up and he was 110, and thats what he has to fight at, so he cut to 90 to loose fat and then bulk up to weight with just muscle but he is now struggling to make 100! and his opponent now wants to up to 120 which i cant see happening mcds every meal be fine lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L33 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Cheers for the support guys. Like i said closer to the time i can give time details and the like. My diet is pretty much the same every day. Corn flakes or bran flakes for breaky, my packed lunch is 2chicken rolls made from home, apple and bag of fruit flakes. Then just a cooked tea. I do kickboxing 2/3 times a week and now tryin to do a fast mile run every day or cardio punch bag work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L33 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 UFC is ok just gone a bit commercialised and taken the martial arts out of it. Like i said my fight is full contact kickboxing so not the mma ground work, but the other 3 from my club whos fighting as well are doing mma. I done it for a bit but just didnt feel natural on the ground with submissions ect as ive always done stand up fighting. So i just train doin kickboxing and muai thai.
