Boxing with Heppner Ep 1 - Sponsored by FitAid

[@shainsaw8441]

Should get the buttery bros to do a documentary on the two fighters leading up to the fight...would make a dope documentary!

[@wleng]

Brilliant idea!

[@BernhardKohli]

I agree with Wouter - I often got beaten in simple sparring because I couldn't take a beating, not only due to my physical fitness. There is a relentlessness that a real fighter has which can wear people down and break them. Watch Sapp vs Minotauro - gives "Never give up" an entirely new meaning. Shogun vs. Rampage is another example of a strong dude mentally breaking a stronger dude. Can only imagine what was going on in Rampage's mind..."Why the ... am I doing this?!?!" Whoever can overcome that "moment" has my utmost respect!

[@fedecr889]

I was dying to see this!! Josh is a great guy, but... Team Heppner all the way!!! I'll do my best to save up and go to vegas to watch you fight!! You got this Jacob!!

[@knoxzd3]

HERRREE WEEE GOOOO!!!! I'm pumped for this

[@melissa7122]

This is going to be such a good series! Watching you transition to that fitness style and level is going to be awesome!

[@donethier7935]

you realize Josh will be watching these vid, be careful what your putting out lol.

[@bsdpowa]

I’ve been training boxing for over 15y and I can tell you that it doesn’t matter at all :) even professional boxers do workouts publicly and this event is for fun anyway:)

SPORT! You are correct! Isn’t this the whole point?! Mad props for putting this series out, and best of luck in the fight!

[@jassechan]

Your Coach is amazing! WOW. Down to earth, experienced, and seems so approachable. Thank you for sharing this!

[@kimberlysadberry6757]

I'm totally team Heppner😋I didn't realize it was such a big deal! and that is gunna be in my home town of Vegas woo hoo! definitely work on being able to take hits and stamina. it takes a lot of energy to fight for sure! I'm looking forward to some sparring content!😬👊

[@homeworkoutwarriors7605]

Go Hep! Love it! Looking forward to it. Good Stuff!

[@MayaBlevins]

Yesssss!!! I would watch KZbin Crossfitters box fr for real 🥊

[@jonedward5334]

I think what I'm looking forward to most is how Jacob improves as an Athlete. Like Mike said, he's here to improve on the athlete no matter what the sport is. I'm not expecting an return to crossfit, but I'd love to see how Jacob compares (as a top 10 games athlete) before and after this fight/training goes down. Somewhat like after Froning left the individuals, he's still 100% competitive but he doesn't compete because he has other agenda's. I'd love to see Jacob do the same thing, Compete in the open, individual or just training like what he's done with Olivia, and see how this experience has helped his personal training and coaching skills.

[@paulwalters7984]

....‘let’s get ready to rumble’..... 👊👍

[@MatthewSmith-sq3pm]

I wish you the best. This will be a fun fight to watch kind of. I’ve always rooted for both of you doing CrossFit but this. It’s like Ali vs Tyson to me. I want both to win.

[@nicktatum3008]

When will shirts for Team Heppner be available???

[@alannorman4097]

I hope you are live sparring with more than one opponent as punching a bag does not cut it. Keep it simple as a left jab and an opportunist right at this level will probably be OK. Keep your gloves up as they can be used for protection . I started boxing late at 18 and ended up fighting most of the British army as they also come to the sport late. It is intimidating stepping into the ring so think how it will go and also hearing people cheer as you get hit is a strange feeling. Nothing will prepare you for it other then doing it. Best of luck!

[@Deenocon]

LETS GO!

[@nickcharles4734]

Great series to follow. So Bridges is almost definitely an inside fighter and as we know your reach isn't the longest, so I'll be interested to see strategies from your coach as to how to develop your style to over come this. HALL for the big win!

[@aakashmohapatra6437]

yes yes yes sir!

[@Ezworrrrk]

Rooting for you champ! Definitely recommend getting some “hard” sparring sessions in. The best way to learn boxing is to box.

[@bprcarvalho]

#teamheppner all the way

[@Jabz1325]

Been waiting on this!

[@eddybax1]

Sting like a butterfly! Dance like a bee!

[@rodm49]

This is GOLD 🏆

[@mrWoo84]

Josh’s first punch will be a roundhouse to the left side of the FACE! He’s going for that face man, get comfy with it.

[@mickeyfactory]

I agree with Don. Don't show everything. Josh's team will pick it apart if they can. You can bet, he'll only show a little bit of his boxing workouts.

[@huibrommers]

Hey Jacob, I’m definitely rooting for you bro. I like your vibe and character, I mean throwing and receiving curveballs at this level says a lot about you. I would like to see some real sparring sessions where you and your ‘opponent’ are really going for it. And it would be nice that afterwards you both are reflecting on it and gather some lessons from it. I think you can train all day on technic but can you actually fight?

[@jwaco4093]

I think this is the first time I ever really just want the best fighter to win. I wouldn’t be against either one.

[@finnluisi3253]

Hey I would suggest you to use a mic when youre talking in your box:)

[@ContagiousIdeal]

What kind of footwork drills would be appropriate for non boxers to improve their daily life?

[@InsaneCrazy255]

How do we get tickets to thiss

[@zachfinke9145]

Hey I’m in Overland Park Kansas hanging out , can I come and drop in at the new barn ?

[@zachfinke9145]

From Florida

[@tp092245]

Lookin good, protect dat chiny chin chin. Winston looks bored. Gonna be a fun event.

[@swat486]

This is going to be like watching two of my friends fight but secretly wanting blood! Celebrity Death Match, MTV, CrossFit Style

[@wleng]

Your coach is super cool and has great camera presence! Does he have a channel?

[@paulrodger1408]

I assume boxers do very little (if any) crossfit training? Are you going to remove crossfit training from your training programme?

[@blainedowns6152]

So... are you going to drop the weight that Josh has requested? Regardless, I’m pumped for this fight.

[@BernhardKohli]

Wow, I hadn't realized that Jacob has been asked to lose weight. That doesn't seem quite fair to me. In the schoolyard, you don't call someone out and then go, like, hey lose some muscle, then let's fight.

[@cherries4life387]

The last thing someone wants to do is cut significant weight. You lose all your feeling of power and you feel depleted. I'd say it'd be unwise to do so

[@MrShades1001]

Dear Mr. Heppner, Who’s your cut-man? When is the weigh-ins? How many rounds and what is the time limit for each round? Sincerely, A man who enjoys fighting!

[@nbobinger]

what weight is josh making you cut down to?

[@heclas]

Bro, your knuckles! Is that from punching the bag? It’s like a reverse CrossFit rip!

[@tunesfromthebeardedman]

Advice.......get hit a lot, get used to it.

[@Sid-rq4db]

Ohh boy......... uhhhhaaa.... yea

[@El_Masters66]

Thor or Eddie?

[@levelupfitness3422]

Try a Mike Tysons workout routine.

[@RunningSD]

you're about to get KO'd son

[@TOURAJ08]

Please keep that pretty face safe ! ;)

[@juhovalio5906]

Never box without wraps or gloves. Gonna get your wrists hurt.

[@JohnKonye]

Challenge Jake Paul and don't take a paycheck, beat him down haha.

[@AdamIsMyNameO]

Winston is not impressed

[@BernhardKohli]

😆 I kept thinking... if only Winston could talk 😉

[@cmo9400]

Ummm

[@NorthsideChamps16]

Heppner KOs the dwarf in the 1st round.
