ferguson911 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 We had a practice with our river equipment for the firefighters at the pool, using the banana boat (to grab someone out of the water ) and the ultra tight floating suits ! Here are some pics....ladies calm down I am not wearing a shirt (I even put them on FB...never been done)! ENJOY! It's a milestone for me to be OK with sharing pics like this !

ferguson911 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Hit a slight wall last night.... coach called me telling me the fight was off just as I was about to go jogging, decided to take the night off, today I was confirmed that the fight will be delayed 2 weeks later...march 14th... 2 more weeks to train, 3 weeks before the fight.It's quite hard when your moral gets destroyed from not having a fight, I guess it is a true test of will, I'm re-scheduling my training to adapt for the next 3 weeks #day1 Quote Adventurer STR: 3| DEX: 2 | CON: 3 | STA: 3| WIS:2| CHA:2 Link to comment
lolavictrola Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Sorry to hear that your fight was delayed, that's really tough when you're getting in the groove to go! I have to join the fangirl base and say: you are looking HOT. I'm sorta kinda crushing. It definitely helps that you are beastmoding this life-change, and girls love a man with determination. Rawr.

ferguson911 Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 NOW I have good news...I believe good things come to those....who just f*kin take it! I was offered a fight on an event where I was supposed to be cornerman, le 8th of march, Exhibition fight (no scoring, no winner) pretty much a demonstration for the crowd, 3 rounds of 2 minutes, but against the silver gloves champion, weighing 220 pounds, with 8 or 9 fights...my coach told me, and it took me 3 seconds before I said YES ABSOLUTELY. The thing is...it's a great chance to get experience for the fight the week after. Can't wait to try it out ! We are 4 fighters from my hometown at this event with close to 25 followers ( out fan club ) heading out to the event.Now... I have accomplished a few objectives in the last year ( I think)...I would like the community to decide on my level, my stats ( str...sta...dex..con..wis..cha) as I have not (sadly) updated them...but I believe the ones in my signature might be off Here is a challenge for you all ! 1 Quote Adventurer STR: 3| DEX: 2 | CON: 3 | STA: 3| WIS:2| CHA:2 Link to comment

ferguson911 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Fight week has begun, my weight is stabilizing around 275-277, I will be fighting twice in 6 days, first fight 4 hours drive to, and the friday after, 8 hours to drive to get to the fight. This saturday I will be going against their champ for an exhibition, a good way to get controlled ring experience. Now...Not quite sure WHAT I should be eating untill then, and on the day of the fight, as to have energy but now be bloated for it. I will have pictures and videos of these events Thanks NF community 2 Quote Adventurer STR: 3| DEX: 2 | CON: 3 | STA: 3| WIS:2| CHA:2 Link to comment

ferguson911 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Fought at 274pounds (good hydration and good food all day long) , all went well I must say, I impressed alot of people at the gym we were at. Got out with barely a scratch, impressed myself and others against a fighter with 10 fights and a championship win (silver gloves). The referee was the same as my coaches last fight 15 years ago ! I loved the experience. Was a little stressed when I first walked in the gym, then it all dropped when I got dressed, warmed-up, then it was all confidence and fun. My opponent was a real gentleman too I must say, being my first fight he did not try to finish me off, but there still was good intensity, we can think of it as a public sparring. Friday I will be fighting again against someone 6 foot 8 285 pounds ( last saturday her was 218 pounds)....I have rarely met taller and heavier than me, can't wait to get into the ring. The only pro photo of me.....is one where I get hit with a solid hook ! Stayed on my feet, and if you look closely, my glove is just about to hit full force Here are the 4 competitors from our club 3 Quote Adventurer STR: 3| DEX: 2 | CON: 3 | STA: 3| WIS:2| CHA:2 Link to comment

The shoulder is back on track, rotator cuff got a little tired, I just realised I am a few pounds away from 150!!!!! I will be going to sun bathe in Cuba for a week in april....first thing I packed was a pair of boxing gloves and some targets.
