Smart move Jimmy. I think if a gym plans on having students compete, they should have a fight team above and beyond the regular student classes.

Good look with your new gym and training for your next competition. Looking forward to hearing more about it.

Jimmy, I would like to thank you for your insight and advice. Believe me we have tried too talk real with mac and I even reminded him of a few months ago when I scouped him up by the windpipe in the kitchen at my 44 yrs of age with nothing but the street as a trainer and I told him that if he was ready for this fight I would not have been allowed to do so, or to get that close! Mac believes his recent trianing is going to be enough unfortunetly! one part of me wants him to get schooled and the other wants to school him myself! he really wants this he says but he’s going to get hurt! even if he gets lucky it will bite him in the tail when he gets home and starts acting like an idiot! Jimmy, you and I know he is getting on the pain trian and there is no way to change his mind! the only saving grace is the doc on mon. telling him that his anckle is not strong enough since he has been in a bledsoe boot since the week before last. jimmy thank you!

Joe,

Your responsibility as a ring man is to motivate mac. During fight day your job is to make sure your fighter is focused and on point with his weight. During the fight you have to make sure he’s executing the game plan correctly.

Now your responsibility as a brother is to talk him out of the fight. I promise you he will get hurt. I don’t care how much street fighting he’s done, I don’t care how tough he is. Technique will overcome anything. If I was fighting your brother, I would hurt him without a doubt. He’s going to get gassed out in the first round and just get beaten on.

my 20 yr old brother just asked my brother-inlaw and I to be his ringmen. Niether one of us know what we need to bring or do or what our responsabilities are, in this , his 1st bout and he is an independant!I will call my bro mac! Well, mac has less than 6-months 0f broken up trianing and in that time has done his share of X-box battles, and T-V remote rumbles and has been smoking like a chiminey! Every time I try to get info. from him, I get the same response, “I got it” and if I try to tell him something, it’s ” I know”. In the middle of January, just days after he asked me to be his ringman he blew out his ankle and since then has done nothing to better himself or prepare for this bout! mac also has got no resect anything or anybody including himself! And with that said he needs to stop pressuring our 68 yr old mother who’s got 78% blocked in the heart and a diebetic “help”! JJ @ 774-283-3481

I believe I am a great fighter… But I’m expecting to be proven wrong when I actually start training, but I’m pretty sure I’d be able to keep up with the lessons. So far all my lessons have been monkey see monkey do and are applied to my own style and momentum… Problem is that I haven’t gotten into a good 3 round fight. So far I’ve tried fighting with my subconscious self, and he gives me a beating. Unexpected blows and stuff, but I need a mind that isn’t in my mind to fight against to see if my skills are adequate, and once I’m convinced its something to work for, I’ll start my quest to become an MMA fighter.

Thanks for the tips
