Took an amateur boxing fight for Saturday 11/19. The show will be at the New Brunswick Boxing Gym at 121 Jersey Ave. in New Brunswick, NJ. I expect to be in the ring around 10:30 but there'll be at least 6 good fight before me and probably a super-heavy after. Can't beat it at $15 a ticket.
Took the fight at 190 but I was told that might change to 195, depending on what this chump can do with his weight. Check out my pics section at www.myspace.com/brunswickboxer for complete shots taken by my girlfriend tonight of me at 202. Doesn't look like I really need to cut any wieght for this, as you can see i'm holding some water and will drop naturally when training picks up. That means I won't be losing any muscle. Shit, I can even drop some fat on top of the water and make 187 if I had to, without giving up any strength.
All I know about the opponent is that he trains in Old Bridge, NJ and he's 205 now and not very lean. But we're about 5 weeks out and anybody who knows anything about amatuer boxing knows anything can change - from the date to the weight to the opponent.
Only nagging injury is some "pain" in my right wrist (don't know or want to know the cause). Right now i'm fine as long as I wrap properly. Worked out pretty good today sparring, bag and mits and had no problem throwing the right with all the heat i'm known for! I'll keep you posted! Anyone in the area within 15 lbs. who wants to work out a little to help me out, get in touch.
