A couple of tough guys, here.
Talking shop after the fight.
The Callahan corner crew with Jimmy
Lean, mean, fighting machine at 158 lbs.
Our own Gentleman Jimmy Holmes fought Saturday night at the Patriot Center In Fairfax, Virginia, losing a 10 round decision to his opponent Jimmy Lange. From a fan's standpoint it was a barnburner. Lots of action by both fighters in just about every round. Jimmy Lange took round six off to recover from the action of the first five rounds and then came right back for the next four. The judges had it scored a unanimous 97 - 92 Lange but many thought the fight was much closer. Holmes had a point taken away from him in one of the early rounds that cost him a round, without that, it could have been a draw easily enough.
Regardless of the scoring, Jimmy fought extremely well in his first ten rounder against a world ranked fighter. We're all extremely proud of his performance but now it's time to focus on the Golden Gloves for the next few weeks.
Let's get out there and do your roadwork, people. You can't be a fighter without that cardio training.
