He had 2lbs on me, but he was ALOT slower and ridgid then i remembered, it was pretty easy auctually, I won by ~12 points and a TKO in the 6th.
He's one of those "street" style fighters, psssh, you can see haymakers comin' a mile off!
Anyways, I just woke up and did 10mins on the bag with a 4-point repeting combo (left-right-left elbow ; right-left-right elbow) and did some leg curls inclined (45lbs) aswell as a quick rep on the bench press low weight high incline (40kg)
Question!
Does anyone find it easier aswell to benchpress on an incline as opposed to flat? I was told it supposed to be harder, but me and my friends find working on an incline when working out the upper body to be MUCH easier then flat.
P.S.
You guys should hear the disgusting noises my right wriste is making, I have to brace it now with a wrap
(Dont worry, im a lefty)

Yeah, I've noticed that. I think maybe (for me, at least) it has something to do with how my feet are planted and I can push myself back onto the back of the bench. I find flat bench using dumbells easier than incline though.

^I have'nt done flat benches in years. Partly because of a shoulder injury,but mostly because inclines are just so much better at developing the chest. Flat benches incorporate too much shoulders and triceps which often leads to injuries when you break the 350 mark. Inclines are more strict and develop the upper part of the peck which gives your chest a high-round look. Most amatuer weightlifters will tell you they can do more weight on flatbench versus incline.But if you'll do inclines regulary you won't have to sacrifice weight very long and your chest will grow like never before.At least mine did.

^Wow,that's honestly the first time i've seen those. Kinda like pullovers in that (I imagine) it helps stretch your ribcage along with working your chest. I'm definatly gonna try them.
Does it help or hinder to do them at an incline I wonder.

Okay, Its pretty much six point boxing, Elbows, Fists, "Slams" [Take downs, throws, counters], headbutts, Knees and feet. Its like muay thai, but has a traditional boxing feel with the point system, Its brutal as all hell! Its all mixed-martial arts too, The buddy who gave me the concussion was 6"3 270lbs......My my 5" shorter, 100lb lighter ass decided to try to take him out, haha, I lunged with a double knee takedown (to putm y knees on his shoulderblades, drop him to the ground then pummel the face with elbows), I landed it on the shoulders, he head butted me in the gut, spun me, and sent me down 8 feet onto cement with a power-bomb style (Ring to floor)...I swear to god, I could land a reverse heelkick to this guys face, his head wouldent move! his head looked like an apple sitting on a tree stump!
Ugh...There are NO disqualifying moves either! (cept weapons)
I dunno if its a sport everywhere, but round' here anyone who's been to SH penn knows the sport! [Gaurds bet on it :D]
I've still got the concuss-daze in my head. so no more fights for atleast a day

Let me tell you folks a story of some events that just transpired, since its not cool enough to be its own topic, its hur!
Allrighty, So about two and a half hours ago i was walkin' talkin', hangin' out with some of the boys, and anyhow, I start to walk off down a alley way to my car....Well, I get there, I see two fuckers, ones jiggling my door (White, probably 16-17), and the other whips out a knife in his right hand (blade FORWARD! haha, what a goof! For anyone who doesnt know, anyone who holds a knife blade pointing towards opponent, is retarded) and asks me somethin' along the lines of if I have any money, or there going to fuck up my car...
Well, I whip Out my wallet and whip a 50 (bright pink colored) dollar bill, crumple it, and throw it on the ground a few feet away from me, naturally, the two.....maybe 130lbs a peice guys dove for it, so, When they were down, ignoring me, thinkin' me a bitch-boy, I brough my left leg off the ground and dropped my heel on the back of the skull of the buddy with the knife who was grabbin' at the bill, Anyhow, The otherguy notices and goes fidgeting in his pocket....Well, I kept my foot on the back of the first buddys head and said 'Look, i'll only move when you do', he grabbed for his knife so I started grinding his buddys face into the ashvault, eventually he's like "Man, cmon, we wernt really going to hurt you, cmon man!" im like, allright, let me see the knife, he skidds the knife across the ground to me (I didnt touch it, mainly for fear of catching Hep, or some other junkie disease), Im like, allright, I take my foot off the first buddys head (applying constant pressure :D) and, well, they decide to be cocky, the guy I let up kept going on about how I was going to be sorry........at this point i'd had enough, I was the nice one!, I wasnt going to put up with ridicule,so, I went with a Mauy Koshan rib-breaker right below his heart (We were about two feet away, he was being really lippy, I would have used a KO shot to the sweet spot on the face, but again, I was to afraid of junkie blood) on the buddy who just got up, and the other buddy jumps for his knife, like literally lunges on his stomach.......I run a few steps towards him, JUMP on the fuckers back with both my knees pointed at 90 degrees (Hehe! I thought I might have broken it)
Well, After that, the first buddy couldent get up and the second, I wouldent get off, I picked the one i was on's pocket and called the police with his cell(About 3 blocks away)......After about an hour of tellin' the tale, they let me go, and commend me! (Uh.....I have a history of assault), they had to bring one to the hospital (When I was grinding his face, Aparently I broke his nose, tore his spetum and ripped out his lip peircings) and the other has 90 days[It was his knife, he admitted to owning it, since I didnt touch it only his and his buddys prints are on it [That'll come up in trial, im told]]. I went to the hospital later and got some shots (EVERYTHING, even the 9 huge horse needle "anti-aids" one) and just got back.
I get to be in mah paper, bitches!
Sorry, im kinda pumped and adrenalines going.
I think i'll start wearing a mask and cape and doing it for fun! Fear street thugs! Im here, and im legally allowed to use excessive force in my own self defense!
I need new shoes though.....I'll try to use my new found celeberty to hustle a pair :D
