There’s nothing else more important when it comes to headgear if you ask me. Above are the four current headgear products I see from their website. This review basically judges all of them in a nutshell. Price All of these are reasonably priced and while they do cost upwards of $60-100, they are well worth it. Money should never…

Deciding Between Orthodox or Southpaw
…the back hand has more room and distance to throw a harder punch whereas the front hand is for throw fast jabs to setup your bigger punches. From a technical standpoint, having your weak hand in front would make it more likely for it to connect with punches than to have the weak hand all the way in the back. I’ve seen many streetfighters or people who come from martial arts that love to stand with their strong hand in front. I don’t recommend this because they usually put the strong hand in front because…
A Healthy Boxer's Diet
A boxer’s diet is pretty much the same as any other serious athletes. Runners, weightlifters, boxers, and many other athletes all have similar diets. It’s nothing new but here goes. READ THE NEW COMMON SENSE BOXING DIET!!! Meat – Stick to white meat.

Little by little as you all watch youtube for inspiration and practice lightly with each other, you will all get to some level of boxing proficiency. While you might never be as good as if…

Everlast Mantis Punch Mitts Review
A quick review about why nobody should ever buy these punch mitts for any reason whatsoever. To make things short. These mitts are easily the worst boxing products I have ever bought. They only further the myth in the boxing community that Everlast only makes crappy products. These mitts fail in two areas: 1) they suck at absorbing punches and, 2) they fall apart VERY QUICKLY. I’ve only logged about a few hours on these mitts before the leather inside started tearing apart. In terms of durability, this is completely unacceptable. I can’t believe they…
