When I drink @chlorophyllwater I feel like an #alien 👽 that’s because #chlorophyll helps the body transport more oxygen and more nutrients into the cells giving you a fantastic pump and amazing endurance for high intensity sports and things like MMA - about my technique I’m firstly #gojuryu and secondly american #Boxing #peekaboo style with basic #muaythay striking #technique I use an #openpalm for most of my strikes but also enjoy using the ridge of my hand in a chopping motion and rabbit #punches my movements are designed to be natural and agile - I focus on simple basic movements like the shin and knee kicks demonstrated at the end 😂 I call this street-fu because In real life there are no rules but you don’t want to get hurt! Punching in traditional style will ruin your hands I’ve already broken my 5th metatarsal by punching in conventional ways... my strikes are designed to effectively stop a human being in their tracks quickly so I can get to safety. One two three and were gone! Open hand is also super helpful for parry, blocks and non telegraphed strikes because when the hand is open nobody expects you will strike #karatedo #muaythai #boxing #connormcgregor #floydmayweather #brucelee #jackiechan #donnyyen #andersonsilva #georgeforman #miketyson #floydpatterson #jackdempsey #brandonlee https://www.instagram.com/p/BzGHtuYjW1A/?igshid=i297l0b2g2ry

“You’re on a pleasant cloud...But then this good feeling leaves you. You realize where you are, and what you’re doing there, and what has just happened to you. And what follows is a hurt, a confused hurt—not a physical hurt—it’s a hurt combined with anger; it’s a what-will-people-think hurt.” #floydpatterson #kingoftheworld #boxinglegends #inspirationalquotes #daytwentyseven #whyisthisgettingharder #thiswillpass (at Cuyahoga River)

Floyd Patterson was born January 4th, 1935 in Waco, North Carolina. At age 21, Patterson was the youngest ever World Heavyweight Champion. His record was surpassed by Mike Tyson, who won the WBC Heavyweight Championship at age 20 in 1986. "I always say that in order to appreciate warm weather, you must experience cold. I wouldn't change one thing - all the embarrassing moments, the defeats, all of everything - through all of this, I have learned me."

Everyone who attends a certain type of English school is given a nickname.  Mine was Floyd Patterson. In 1956, Floyd Pattersonwas the youngest boxer to become the world heavyweight champion.  I was certainly not a heavyweight but perhaps I was pugnacious in defending myself against larger and older boys.  Floyd Patterson had a maxim that drove his career: ‘you try the impossible to achieve the…
