ULTRA WHITE COLLAR BOXING | My Experience and Full Fight 

Thank you very much, mate. Much appreciated.

Thank you, mate. Really appreciate it. That's awesome man! Trust me, you'll get a lot out of it and its gor a good cause. Absolute win-win.

Thank you, mate. Appreciate it.

I don’t think he’s fought before. Definitely not in boxing. Can’t imagine a licensed gym would let him compete, but he probably has had experience in boxing. His movement was okay, not from a technical point of view but he definitely understood movement to a degree. Perhaps a Tae Kwon Do background or something similar. His punching was not technical at all though. I don’t think it was unfair, I think the guy in red just understood movement more and overwhelmed the guy in blue a little.

Best of luck to you, lad! Hope it all goes well for you.

Yes lad! Good for you. You'll do great, man. Just take it all in and enjoy the experience.

@@FullTimeFootballNI thank you pal

Thank you, man. I appreciate it. Best of luck to you with your journey, dude!

He was absolutely the better man. All the credit in the world to him.

The important thing is that you got in there and you did it, dude. Not many can say that they had the stones to get in there.

Good stuff, mate! I look forward to seeing it.

Cheers, buddy. Appreciate it.

Thank you, mate. I appreciate it. Hell yes man, absolutely go for it! Honestly, the hardest part is signing up.

Cheers, buddy. Appreciate it.

Very best of luck to you, mate. Wishing you all the very best.

@@FullTimeFootballNI appreciate that dude💪

@Lufbul did you time travel or something ? Are we still in October? 🤔

That's awesome, dude! You'll smash it.

Me too dude, my event is in December though this will give me some time to get fit 🤣

yes rollo :D go go go

I’m doing it in February. Any tips?

@@szaryobywatel5273 any advice?

That's awesome, dude! Honestly, by signing up to do it, you've done the hardest part. All it is now is just having a laugh and putting your all into it. If there was one thing I wish I had done was find a sparring partner outside of training, so as to make things feel more natural instead of having to stop and try to remember how to throw certain combinations. You'll get so much out of it, mate. Plus it's all for a good cause, so you cant ask for anything more than that.

Thank you, dude! Oh absolutely give it a go. You'll get something out of it. Respect to your brother too, man.

I appreciate the kind words.

Thank you, buddy. Appreciate it.

As much as I would have loved to, there's just nowhere really to where I live that would be handy to get to, unfortunately. Would have liked to continue to train but not to actually fight, if that makes sense.

Good stuff, lad! Hope all goes well for you.

Truth be told mate, I just wore trainers and they did the job the very best. Unless you're planning on continuing with boxing afterwards then I'd forego the expense, personally.

There was a lot of running involved, bud. Our warmup involved about ten minutes of non-stop running with intermittent sprints. Then of course there's the sparring which is enough on its own. To be honest, I thought I'd be gassed after a minute, but the adrenaline kicks in and you really don't feel any tiredness until afterwards.

Yes mate! Fair play to you for putting yourself forward to do it. That's honestly the hardest part of the whole experience done. To be honest, that was one of things I was most worried about when I signed up, but the very first night put any of those fears aside. The way I looked at it was that everyone was there for a common goal which was to raise money, not to hurt anyone else. At the end of the day, a good 90% of the people there had never pulled on a pair of gloves before so everyone is starting at the same level. The more comfortable you get with your training, the more confidence you'll gain and the nerves will subside significantly.

What city are you training in mate?

I trained in Belfast for this, my dude.

We all received a little commemorative trophy. Nothing overly fancy but it was nice to receive something. We did yeah, as long as it wasn't seen as offensive you could pick whatever music you wanted.

@@FullTimeFootballNI that's awesome :) I just recently signed up to do it this year (so long as boris and co don't mess things up lol) so nice that I'll have more than just aches and pains to remember the event

Good lad! Fair bloody play to you, mate. All the very best for it.

So, for myself and my group, we were sparring with each other. You have your coaches there to guide you and help you out, but as far as sparring goes, they'll generally pair you up with someone who is of similar build and experience when possible. As for where your training takes place, when you sign up they will send you all of the relevant information, such as where you'll train, what time, what days, etc. For us, it was a leisure centre in the middle of Belfast.

@@FullTimeFootballNI ahhh I see thank you so much for the reply, seems fair enough. With the sparring is it like full on? Or light sparring or what?

@@yungthug2403 The first few sessions are basically catered to how to throw a punch correctly, before incorporating the likes of hooks and body shots. In regards to sparring, the intensity builds session to session, with the last one being the most intense. Even at that, we were encouraged to hold back a bit, so about 70% maximum. It is for charity, after all. No need to beat the head off each other.

Thank you, buddy! I appreciate the kind words. Would love to do it again and try to give a better showing, but as you say, its more about the cause than anything else and that was the important thing.

@@FullTimeFootballNI Absolutely. For me, it was a bucket-list thing, as I’d always regretted not getting into boxing as a kid. I’d also say that to be fair, you came up against someone who looked very assured. Can’t imagine that was his first time by a long stretch. Get back in mate, and put out an update when you do. I’ll donate 👍🏼 take it easy mate

Great to hear, mate! Good stuff. Honestly, the only real advice I can give is to just enjoy it. Sounds ridiculously cliché I know, but its true. Just take the day as it comes. Don't think about the fight itself too much. You don't want to become fixated on it. Apart from that, just stay hydrated and relax. Once you're out there, the adrenaline will take over and you won't even have the capacity to be nervous. You'll smash it, lad.

Thanks again man. I won and dedicated the fight to my Uncle who just beat cancer. What an experience. 🥊👍

@@suitedandbooted363 Yes lad! Bloody delighted for you!

@@FullTimeFootballNI thanks man. It was amazing getting my hand raised. What a journey.

I’m doing this again in my home town this time. I must be mad and once again I an nervous as hell even though I have already done it. 🤣 Nothing can prepare you for this.

That was someone that they provided, my dude.

That's great, mate! Glad to hear you're giving it a go. Honestly, the hard bit is done. The most nerve-wracking part is committing to do it, and you've done that. The very first night will get rid of any lingering nerves, man. Once you see that everyone is in the same boat in regards to experience, it's nowhere near as intimidating. As cliche as it sounds, my advice would be to just enjoy it and throw yourself into it. I guarantee you will get something out of it and it's all for a great cause, at the end of the day. You'll smash it, lad.

@@FullTimeFootballNI I won btw, thank you so much for the advise it helped ❤️ what an experience

@@JKeyB Yes lad! Bloody congratulations to you! Delighted for you.

@@FullTimeFootballNI 👊🏻👊🏻 thank you again

Thank you, bud! Really nice of you to say.

As of yet, no. I would love to give it another go but too many other things are taking priority at the moment.

You can book a table for six people, if I remember correctly. So at least that way you can take a seat. Although, it was WAY too expensive so the poor folk standing just had to suffer on.

@@FullTimeFootballNI omg :d All VIP tables unfortunetely are sold out. Anyway thank You for answer :)

100% ha ha its a serious miss match

16,000 not 1,600!

@@Geohillierneo Even better LOL

Thank you, bud! Really appreciate it.

Ah, it's all good, man. He was just better than me in all areas and absolutely deserved the win.

But even if that was the case, he seemed to be way more dedicated to it than I was, so I give him all the props in the world. The lad absolutely deserved the win.

mitchell dring why wouldn’t he!? It was a great video and full respect to him for stepping in the ring.

@@Gamegodz76 Thank you, buddy. I appreciate that.

Life ain’t always about winning bro, just did my ultra white and lost too, didnt stop me posting it and being proud to have done it 👊🏼
