Nice fight. What a head kick!

Where did he catch you for his body punch waza-ari? It looked like solar plexus.

Yeah i think so, if i remember right i threw a really slow kick and he counter punched me right in the plexus. I've had a lot of trouble with direct bodyshots in Kyokushin, using the clinch, knees or distance i manage to avoid almost all of these in Muay Thai but under these rules its impossible.

I'm altering my karate guard to be almost peakaboo boxing style to protect my front and working on strengthening my abs before the nationals. Headkicks don't scare me so it should work better.

Fighting at 66kg (145 lbs) on the 5th of November for a title. Ruleset will be 5 * 1.5 minute rounds, 1 minute breaks with elbows and knees to the head allowed against an opponent who really likes his leg kicks.

Good luck with training. Is he a lanky fucker like all the rest?

Good to see you back mate.

Na this guy is shorter, at 66kg i will be a giant compared to most of them. I've seen him fight, he beat one of my gym mates last year with leg kicks so I'm really looking forward to this one.

Opponent changed to a guy from the same gym with a record of 8 fights, 6 wins 1 loss 1 draw. Had the height advantage which was good for a change. Won the queensland title which feels awesome, the 5*2 minute rounds nearly killed me but i pushed through it to take the win. Lost part of my ear to an elbow, seriously.

Nice, congratulations! I wanna fight with elbows, though I have to admit to not really wanting a face full of scars, being a woman and all.

Thanks guys, will definitely be video. Elbows are a lot of fun, its really satisfying when you land one flush. You should come for a fight holiday to Australia kid, starting next year every amateur fight here is 5 * 1.5 min with elbow pads.

Well I would really like to come to Australia for a vacation maybe next year or something, after I've been to Thailand. I won't be messing around with that amateur sheeit though, I should be well into my pro career by the end of next year (so I keep saying)
