Fight night

Saturday gone saw Team Stealth travel to Wales to take on the mighty ADMA, we departed from stealth coalville at about 2 pm, are first stop was in coalville to get surplus for the Trip (allot of beer) and although i was fighting i had to partake in just a couple of cheeky half's,

We arrived at the venue at about 6pm to be greeted By two old friends ADMA owner/chief instructor Rhidian Hains and my opponent for the evening Ryan Parry, after a bit of light banter we got things going, as normal at these events i ended up refereeing all night but it did mean the fights went smooth and fast, there was some good talent on show and every one in the crowd seamed to be enjoying the night

However when 9.30pm come things relay got going with the MAIN EVENT of the evening, Matt Smith (me) of team Stealth VS Ryan Parry of team ADMA, this is were the noise level in the room went up to rival the noise of a space shuttle take off, I'd like to say it was for me but i think the 100 or so welsh people may have bin shouting for Ryan, The 30 stealth supporters didn't do bad though

we guard the crowd up even more be for the first bell, with a little bit of show boating Ryan did a trick, then i did one and this went one for a will but in the end he had more tricks than me (lol)

when the fight started i was relay up for it and the first round went fast and was pretty even with only two points in it, the second round however went slightly to Ryan pulling away by another couple of points, and that's wen it all went wrong the crowd wanted an extra round and Craig as referee obliged, but at this point my tank was empty and i couldn't even tell you what happened in the last round but we were both still standing,

Although Ryan won I was pleased with how i fought scoring some good points and a good couple of axe's in particular, i can tell how much i have improved since last time we fort 2 years ago when i couldn't touch him, all is not lost the may be third time Lucky when ADMA come to us in four weeks four our fight night and i get a third re-match with Ryan.

so i have four weeks to get rid of some of the extra 20kg i carry over Ryan and who No's it might be a different story!!

all in all the night was grate and when i got to the bar at 9.45 it got better. lol
