Hello! I am zallard1, a speedrunner who primarily specializes in the Punch-Out series! 

I started out on YouTube in 2006, when I started to dabble with Star Fox 64 high scores. Over a few years, I put down score after score that took intense amount of practice, skill, and persistence. I was frequently able to set world records on several of the stages in the game. 

Eventually in 2009, I moved on to speedrunning once I realized that the optimization mindset that I've gotten better at through Star Fox 64 could be directly applied to speedrunning. I started with speedruns of Star Fox 64 and Splatterhouse since I loved both of these games.

2009 was also a pivotal year for the direction I would go, because that was also the release of Punch-Out for the Wii, which I heavily started getting into learning and competing for good times. I branched out to Super Punch-Out, then Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, and the rest is history!

I hope you enjoy your stay on this channel! Thanks for stopping by!
