(VID) First kickboxing fight of friend

[Dilaanf_]

My friend from my gym(red trunks) fought on the same event as me. Was wondering what you sherbro’s thought of his performance.


Like always any tips and comments would be appreciated.

Better than a lot of shertards in here that either doesn't train, or is only training in a beginner class. Pretty much 95% of shertards in here are just fanboys that never fought in competition before.

His guard could use a bit of improvement IMO. Hard to tell from the video but it looked like he was susceptible to a middle attack/uppercuts from a harder striker. Also, I'd like to see more head/upper body movement in that guarded position to take less direct punishment.

On the positive side his ringmanship was excellent, taking control of the center and keeping constant pressure/counter-striking when struck and moving forward/keeping his opponent moving back. His cardio looked to hold up well too. Not sure how many fights he's had but I've certainly seen a lot worse performances and he should be proud and keep working.
