With an opponent more in line with my height we have about the same ranges and, I can utilize my strengths more readily.
As far as the training and fight weights go, when I train for a fight I train 5 to 6 hours a day as well as work a full time job. My girlfriend would kill me if I did this everyday and that is the whole reason
My return to fighting is something I've been thinking about for a while. At the age of 33 I realize that my glory days are pretty much done and, I'm some what civilized now so I don't have dreams of UFC gold or anything like that. Plus I love my role as a coach, I like helping young guys learn to fight and one thing since I don't focus on my training I can really focus in on theirs. I'm a low level pro fighter with a bum knee and, I'm cool with that. But to be honest with you I feel like I have 3 or 4 fights left in me and I have a few things left that I'd like to accomplish.
I don't know if I answered your questions or just ranted. Hope I answered at least part of them. |
You def answered my question. And I must add I dont think I could afford a girl friend and my training. So I dont know what my reasons for not training more are

So what is the cutting process? I've never been involved in a sport thats required it. Although by the end of most seasons you weigh a lot less than you did at the beginning.
