gotta add one more thing....the thought of athleticism/"blackleticism" mentality in regards to fighting and esp boxing has to be dialed all the way back

I can't say that Nate just don't know how to box bruh. We talk about the athleticism factor when it comes to professionals fighting professionals.

The Truth
Hopefully:beli:





:unimpressed:



This puts allot of things to rest
1 muscles/ being ripped don't mean you can fight
2 boxing needs some respect on this board
3 if you not used to getting hit"everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face"

People called me pessimistic e.t.c but anybody that's done any type of training can tell you, focus mitts are just for show basically. They look and sound good in training:manny:

@patscorpio @Dallas' 4 Eva @the old mongoose @O.T.I.S.
Mitts are good if you use them to box EXACTLY how you plan on boxing. There are also good for conditioning, accuracy, practicing defense, etc.

But just because you can throw a timed combo doesn't mean you can box. People saw Floyd doing that shyt and ran with it. Floyd actually fought like that though and there was a lot going on with those mitt sessions... not just the pretty combos.


Just like with JUST hitting the bag... great workout, good practice if your hitting it the way you actually fight, good conditioning. But means nothing without ring work....


Watch how Tyson used to hit the bag

Everything he did was geared towards his style of fighting... not just throwing to look good for IG. He practiced everything he was going to do in the ring


Every time I saw Nate hit the mitts it was like they were still teaching him how to throw a punch... 6 days a week, twice a day? He should've been focusing on what he's gonna literally do in the ring by month 3..

Floyd called his sparring wars at his gym the dog house for a reason. Headgear and all... come get real work.

Nate did not get any real work leading up to this fight. If he was sparring against someone Jakes size for at MOST 6 months, but better than Jake (like KSI was sparring Viddal and other cats better than Logan Paul), Nate would've been fine when shyt got real...once he shook off the nerves.

Instead, dude looked like he hadn't been in a real fight, fukk a boxing match, in a long time

I’ve been saying this.
KSI hasn't been training nearly as hard... dude went back to being a YouTuber....

With that being said, I think Viddal would have him ready. Jake called out Viddal too... I would LOVE to see Viddal whoop his ass

Those very punches he was throwing in this first gif. He was doing to Roy jones consistently

I know Roy woke today like:damn:body soreness must be in 100 especially given his age

He's practiced that style of fighting in every thing he did that it's engrained in his DNA... he just had to get in shape and get his rhythm back.

I would've loved to see him bend his knees more.. get more leverage in his hooks consistently but I know it's tuff at 50+ with ring rust

Lost respect for Nate. U lost to that cac. Smh

Take it more seriously. :yeshrug:When I saw the training vids from the whole deji/KSI and Logan/Jake stuff, I was actually worried for Deji and his bro.

Jake takes it seriously to a certain degree, you just gotta take it a notch higher than that.

I honestly think jake would ko ksi and with Vidal would be interesting.

Good stamina, power, come forward fighter with decent movement. Ksi can not try and push this guy back, he will get laid out. Ksi and jake have poor defense so it’s who has the better offense and jake by far is the bigger puncher. Him knocking him out cold before he hit the mat was impressive, this guy has been sparring his ass off.
