This comment got me looking up my amateur boxing record.
Boxrec only includes national tournament and international matches.
It doesn't even include state title and regional qualifier victories, so my PA Golden Glove Title match isn't on here.
My total amateur record is 49-11. Boxing fans will recognize at least two names here.
When amateurs meet, the loser is the one who makes the first mistake.
When professionals meet, the winner is the one who solves final problem.
When a professional faces an amateur, it's a lesson for both, but each for entirely different reasons.
The amateur learns his limits.
The professional learns how close he is to becoming one again.

For my fellow fighters, never be the dude who trashes the lifting crowd.
Fighting has this weird ego hierarchy. Everyone thinks their discipline is tougher.
I've been guilty of this myself.
But at the end of the day, respect the grind. I've always respected the grind, even if it ain't my grind.
At the end of the day—whether you're a bodybuilder, crossfitter, powerlifter, striker, or grappler—we're all doing something that most men ain't got the discipline for.
My favorite part about the “under 200lbs” posts is the rage in the comments
This is what 250mg testosterone a week & 4iu of GH ED as far as anabolics looks like
A TRT testosterone dose with a little GH sprinkled in
Retatrutide for the cut, a weeks worth of Mexican sun with Melanotan 2 for the tan & a couple other peptides for recovery & energy
What all the reply guys don’t want to acknowledge is 19 years in the gym busting my fucking ass while they were sleeping being cunts with zero “anabolics” for 15 of those years
I love the hate in the comments, it exposes how fragile so many men’s egos are, so please for my own personal entertainment never stop
And all the self proclaimed gun & jujitsu tough guys who have probably never even fired a gun least alone own one or even have a stripe on a white belt or even train MMA if you think the meatheads ain’t got guns & don’t roll a few times a month you might be in for a rude awakening one day
@KobraSportsMed Haha I am also 6'1" 215 lbs.
Well, 223 this morning, but I've gotten a little lazy as of late.
Spending the rest of the year hitting new training goals now that I've sworn off competition.
Serious question for those knowledgeable in peptides:
What would a black dude get out of Melanotan 2?
Not a light skinned brotha either but a dude *at least* my complexion.
When people think about the hood, they usually think about crime.
Now they're not wrong, because talking about the hood without mentioning violence is like mentioning omelets and never bringing up eggs.
Violence is one of—if not the defining—characteristics of life in the projects. There are poor communities all over the country. Trailer parks and Appalachia have poverty, drugs, and single mothers as well, but the violence is unique to life in the hood.
But I think that's where most people stop thinking.
Violent crime isn't the disease. Rather, it's one symptom of something much deeper.
The question isn't why violence is so common.
It is why an environment emerged where violence became one of the most effective ways for a young man to establish status in the first place.
@aruvinchan Even more than that, the look goes against almost everything dudes are taught is attractive–by both red pill and mainstream.
But I remember growing up, pretty boys got mad love.
Dudes will doubt it, but K-Pop ain't a world wide phenomenon because of the music and lyrics.
I have some really smart followers.
When watching your opponent, you don’t want to over analyze them, that’ll create hesitancy when competing.
You want to find 1-3 tendencies or ticks (like @ZacPauga said) that’s it.
