Street bully challenges boxing coach and gets f***ed up

No you don't throw punches like that if you aren't trying to knock someone out. The coach is an asshole too in this situation. As I said not many experienced boxers would do that to a beginner whether he's an asshole or not. The way to humble someone is by outboxing them and gassing them out, something the coach could have easily done instead of trying to hurt the guy for clout.

I doubt if he let him throw some punches and pitter patter pot shotted him he would have got the message.

More like he would have walked away thinking he was pawning the coach till he gassed out. I’m being serious here a guy like that clearly has a self confidence steeped in mental gymnastics.

What might have helped him get the message is if he had have filmed it and then showed his intensity sparring with someone who was actually on his level but I doubt he had the presence of mind to think of that in that situation. Nothing wrong with how the coach handled it imo.
 
At least he showed up and tried to whoop his ass.

it’s only a mistake if u don’t learn from it- Bruce lee

that guy wasn’t a beginner, he was an asshole. A beginner is someone who shows up with an empty cup wanting to learn to box. An asshole is a guy who challenges the owner of a gym (who’s fresh off of hip surgery) to fight and then drives an hour to knuckle up.

When you’re that good, bouncing punches off the side of someone’s melon is a choice. Hitting someone on the chin with a hook or curved punch is another choice which would shut someone’s lights off. The coach here chose not to target the jaw.

thats not how ducking someone works. Ducking is when someone else calls you out and you say no. This dummy picked a fight and got it

Well at least he put his money where his mouth is. There’s a lot of people who talk shit and when they get challenged they don’t fight and just make excuses

I like how everyone is saying he could be mentally ill. He could be but more likely he's just a dipshit who thought he was tougher than he actually is.

Its a strange and ill fated development that we blame more and more the people not responsible for a situation instead of the agressor. Actions have consequences.

This coach went light on him were there wasnt any need for it. Guys like that prey on the weak and now he got his own medicine. He challenged a coach after hip surgery with the intent to injure him.
The only language someone like that understands is a beat down.

I think the story behind the video would have been helpful:

This Video Is Old but as we were getting ready for my kids boxing class this dude walks in with black leather jacket on with a book bag and says he wants to teach my class. I gave him a chance because i thought he knew the kids in class and he had some idea of what he wanted to do. Coming to realize he was full of shit so I asked him to step off my floor. He had more planned than just teaching class he actually wanted to fight. And again i gave him a chance to throw punches at me... Considering he wasted my time I smacked him with a hook then gave him a hug and asked him what the hell was wrong with him. He said he just wanted to teach self defense and have fun. I told him He can't just walk in a boxing and ask to teach class. ...After a tough lesson learned he humbled down took gloves off and walked out....

the coach is by any metric an experienced boxer. He also could of knocked the dude out by targeting the chin but chose not to.

That’s how I read the situation as well. I think he was just trying to humble him. This guy isn’t really hurt here. He’s not walking away with anything more serious then possibly a headache, some bruises, and a shattered ego.

Ive seen videos like this where someone acts tough and gets the absolute snot pounded out of them, and I always say that the gym fighters and coaches should show restraint. But this wasn’t that bad.
 
Seems like this guy was just joking and playing around but he also seems like he's not too swift in the brain department. He wasn't even throwing punches, just laughing and horse playing. He probably really wanted to learn and was trying to buddy up to the coach.

The coach seems like the Bully who got mad that anyone would even joke about sparing him.
Further evidence shows the coach continuing to knock the old guy down and verbally insult him instead of being a coach and teaching the idiot something.
Then putting it on the internet to try and look like a hero.

Big man indeed.

Idk man. I'm not saying this for you but most people don't realize what coaches have to deal with. If you run a boxing gym in a big city, you'll have people showing up to your gym literally every couple months looking for a fight. Most of them will leave if you ask them politely but some won't take no for an answer unless they get an ass-beating.

The only difference between this coach and others is that he made sure to record those incidents, probably for his own safety. It's easy to say he should have handled it this way or that way when you're not the one having to deal with aggressive retards regularly knocking at your door when you're just trying to run a business or go about your day.

As for the guy in the OP, he's been in many street fights while in and outside of prison and is now challenging former professional fighters to calm his anger issues. He's on the right track get killed some day. If anything, the coach did him a favor by teaching him a lesson. Other people would have knocked him out cold and dragged him out of the gym.

I don't disagree with you - I'm not really passing judgement on him, it does raise my eyebrow a little bit knowing he has two videos on it - but like you say it could just be that he had the foresight to record

He wasn’t joking and playing around, he emailed the coach challenging him to a fight and then drove an hour to see it through.
