Good stuff Mark :TU:

I'm glad you've got a fight coming up. I don't think you'll need four rounds to dispose of Tutaki though... :D

Will you be stepping it up in your next fight?

Sounds fair enough to me. Is anything (anyone) lined up for when you get to America?

If Tutaki actually trains and comes in shape and wanting to fight, he can be a useful fighter. I know Mark wont be taking him lightly as hes right, he cant aford any slip ups while awaiting his US trip!

we hav seen tutaki plenty of time's over here,are u saying he never trained 4 any of them fights?this fight is a waste of time and wont help mark at all.

tutaki is inconsistent, did you see his fight with kava? anway regardless of what you think about him this is just a blog so people can look at the training routine and get an inside look,

What I am saying is if he trained seriously like Mark is obviously doing right now then he'd at least be solid opponent, not just a fall guy or punching bag like hes been in Aussie recently. Like Mark said hes inconsistant.

wow man, can i get an info from you in what weight class do you fight? i am traning also boxing, not fighting though....i am sure i am doing something wrong in my training, but i am doing much more work in a trainig session than you....but i am not training every day though, but every second or third day...i weigh 95 kg, 188 cm, I used to do around 110 minutes of hard work on the heavy bag, usually 7 minute rounds... 15-20 3 minute rounds with mitts, 2 hour athletic training and 2 hours of weight training...one training lasts usually 2 hours...
i just decided to write it down, so we can share training experiences....

good luck on your next fight! thumbs up!

greenmachine, i train depending on my recuperative abilities, i am fighting 4 rounds so i have to pack as much intensity as i can into those rounds, if you are doing alot more maybe you should aim to cut it down slightly but push alot harder in those rounds, if i was fighting a 12 rounder i would do more volume, but any excess endurance eats into power and recovery time, so i try to balance it.

also green machine, dont forget the body cannot stay anabolic for more than 47 mins during a hards session, which means after that time you are using your own muscle tissue for energy assuming you are training anaerobically not aerobically (eg fast slowfast slow versus slow and steady)

Do you really think you would have to train hard to beat Fatarse Tutaki?

Posted: 04 Jan 2008, 03:29
by dominator
ummmm, yes? i think i have to train to beat any fighter, running out of gas is not something that i deal well with

you are right, mate, at the moment i am trying to build endurance and fitness...during workouts i am changing the intensity all the time and ifound out, that this method builds endurance bigtime...it works for me, may not work for others...yes, you won t stay anabolic after an hour, you really have to take care about that, but me, i am not fighting and you know when the passion gets you DURING TRAINING, you can t stop..ANYWAYS, YOU HAVE STRICT PLANS, GOALS AND HAVE TO TRAIN REALLY SMART.

I can't see too much wrong with staying busy before he heads over to the US. It is certainly better than not fighting at all...

Nothing wrong with fighting Tutaki, he hasnt fought in a while so needs to fight.

Mark what are your thaughts on doing weights in the morning then boxing training at night? have heard different storys some say dont do weights the same day as you train for boxing whilst others say as long as you give yourself time to recover between each session it doesnt matter.
