And some of you keep throwing around words like “coward” or “pussy” when you talk about me — and some of you even say I can’t throw a punch, that I have no hand speed, and no punching power.
If you actually want to know the truth, don’t take my word for it. Ask my old boxing coach from Poland — Matusz Banaś in Katowice (he’s on Facebook) and ask him about Douglas from the USA. I sparred with him 4–5 times, and after our very first sparring session, he told me straight up: “You are brave.” A coach doesn’t hand out words like that for no reason.
He can also tell you how my punching skills were — my technique, my hand speed, and my power, etc. I only trained with him for a couple of months, so I’m not claiming I’m a polished boxer — but he’ll back me on the fact that I showed up, worked hard, threw correct punches, and never backed down.
So if you really believe I’m a coward or that I can’t punch, go ahead and ask him yourself.
