OK, so for those not familiar with my story, basically I wanted to take up Boxing full time about 7 years ago roughly but had a freak accident in the gym not long after and fractured my spine, I was partially paralysed down my left arm for about 2 years so I thought fuck it, I'll take up Thai Boxing, my knees elbows and shins still work right?
I've stuck at the Thai Boxing for about 5-6 years and had a few what Boxing fans would call "smokers" basically gym fights.
Anyway, Last October the neck injuries were getting really severe again and I was ready to pack in. I did barely anything between Oct-Dec last year then from January up until about April this year I did fuck all, I put on about 15kg and thought this ain't for me.
Anyway, I went back to the gym (the regular gym) and my shoulder and neck actually felt OK. So for the past 2 weeks I've been Boxing and just started Thai Boxing again tonight.
Basically, I'm about 10kg overweight and rusty as fuck. But who gives a bollocks right? It's only a few daft vids
Give me 6-10 weeks, led me shed 10 kilo and I'll look like a different man. I'm about 18 stone at the minute would like to be about 15.
Boxing enthusiasts - This is essentially a new sport to me, I've always been a thai fighter. So I know there's loads of mistakes I make. (particularly with footwork).
Muay Thai enthusiasts - Yes I know my kicks are a bit rusty, I need to get up on that opposite leg more and generate more torque. As mentioned I'm just heavy at the minute and rusty.
