    Does anyone have access to the Carlo Prater Anaconda variation from his last fight?

    Thank you. Reading through that thread now. Seems like the videos are unavailable now. I have it recorded on my DVR at home, but I wanted to show someone at the office. Oh well. It was smooth nonetheless.

    Does anyone have access to the Carlo Prater Anaconda variation from his last fight?

    Hi all, Hope the training is going well for everyone. And I hope we can all do our best to avoid injury so we can be on the mat as much as possible. Does anyone have access to the Carlo Prater Anaconda variation that he used in his last fight against Brian Travers? I really want to...

    I seriously think what are you are thinking about doing, i.e., ordering all three and reviewing them and then returning what you don't want, is a great idea. Can't wait to see what happens.

    Arkitekt, Just to clarify something I wrote in my above post about the Cagesides. I didn't say that because they are less expensive gloves they might be cutting down on the quality of padding or velcro. I simply said that I don't know how good their padding or velcro is because I've never...

    Arkitekt, That's great that you found MMAwarehouse.com and their deals. They are a very reputable website like all have said. But the CSI's that I'm talking about are only $5.00 less than CSI's website. I'm gonna wait for a little bit larger of a discount than that before I stock up. haha...

    You're 100% right on about the CSI finger loops. But... Not all of the gloves have the pinky finger loops stiched high. My pair for instance has the right glove with perfect stiching but my left glove has awkward stiching. Still, the glove works good. I trust what you say about the Cagesides...

    Okay, so I just keep talking, but I have some good insight when it comes to gloves... I've spent way too much time ordering them, using them, reading up on them, etc. The Cagesides are the same as the CSI 6 oz sparring gloves. It's the same cut of leather, same shape, same design. They might...

    P.P.S. I just looked at the Hayabusas again, (probably got the spelling wrong, sorry), but honestly they look great. If you go with them, I think you'll be real happy. Reason is, is they took the design from CSI gloves. They just added a piece of material that goes across the palm. But...

    Arkitekt, You're doing the best you can in this situation. It's really important to read what others' have to say about the equipment that you're interested in purchasing. The retailers will just give you the pros and never any cons, and they won't concede to being aware of problems that...

    Combat Sports MMA Safety Sparring Gloves-Combatsports.com I like these. I've used them since they were first introduced and they are durable, safe, and comfortable. My only gripe with them is the cut of the finger slots. Most of the time when you get these kind of gloves, which are manufactured...

    Thanks again for the feedback. Tomorrow's my birthday. I'm gonna order myself a pair. I love holding pads for people and you can't beat a quality punch mitt. Enjoy your gym. I have a pretty cool home setup myself. I live alone so my master bedroom is a 13' x 13' Zebra Tatami mat area...

    Thanks, TS, for the quick feedback. I do see what you're saying about bulk. I mean, 16 oz-ers are bulky, but the build of the the UC's are kind of bulky, i.e., not very sleek. But they still look like great quality. Now you got me interested in the punch mitts. Those look sweet in the catalog...

    TS, what is your opinion on the Ringside Ultimate Classic gloves. They look pretty good. I'm thinking of getting a pair, but just want to know some feedback. I've used Everlast, Fairtex, Reyes, Ringside. And honestly, so far, the best gloves were the Everlast training gloves that were filled...

    Nevermind, TS, I read the answer to my question on another page of your thread. I just don't understand why Everlast is putting out such crap. I mean, they just don't care. When the bags come, and they haven't been hung yet, they feel amazing, almost good enough to sleep next to, like an...

    You have good taste, man... You got the good stuff. And as far as all the people that commented on the limited space, you really don't need that much space to work the heavy bags and speed bags. Perhaps the machines are a bit cluttery but, if you need them, then it's all good. If you want to...
