    Cutman Tales

    agreed. for the most part i walk in there, expecting to wrap the entire card. most nights i'm doing between 8-15 fighters. tomorrow i've got a card and i'm expecting 14.

    Cutman Tales

    i've seen some really bad wrap jobs from coaches. from being too tight that hand movement is restricted as well as blood flow, to being well illegal as most places don't allow tape over the knuckles. most cards i'm hired on by the promoter to be there because they know who i am, and willing to...

    Prospect Fighting Championships Discussion Thread

    It goes quick once the ball is rolling. oh trust me it does. I've been one of their cutmen since their first show. It's not so bad since I've gotten some me team mates along the way. One of the best productions, and match makers of fights in Ontario hands down. Worth it every time.

    Cutman Tales

    i ended up getting flagged at the border since i could not prove i wasn't being paid (i dealt with the promoter through facebook only). that was my own fault. but odd considering i've crossed the border in the past for the same purpose, and no one said a thing. i worked a card just outside of...

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    people are just uneducated and need to learn. just keep doing it over and over and eventually they're going to get the message. personally i don't mind the gauze braiding between the knuckles, it just takes far too long to do when you're taping 20 guys in a night. if you're only doing a couple...

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    i'm going to guess this is cutmanzilla above me ;) no problems with that stuff ammy wise in the province. but mind you my coach is the amateur mma rep for the oga in ontario, and he knows the real ins and outs and basically just lets me wrap however i feel comfortable, so long as i fall...

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKR41ah9GNs the link above, is how stitch duran wraps hands. his way is honestly the best way i've found to wrap hands. i do a few different variations based on how much time i have to wrap a fighter, and how many i have to do in a night. putting the gauze on...

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    i worked an event last friday. holy cow i could not believe how much i had to work. i started wrapping hands at 10pm and did not stop until 1 am. just kept coming and coming. i have to accept that the way i want to wrap is not the way i can wrap. i have to modify my wrapping technique in order...

    Guide to Being a Cornerman

    On Saturday the Amateur Fight Series held their first event in London Ontario. Bit of a background; i've been slowly been taught by my coach to learn how to do this for the mma gym I belong to (iron monkey mma in woodstock ontario). been mainly doing it by trial and error since he and i both...

    Fat BJJ guys

    like five eight i think? 215 right now. my gut hides until i start breathing heavily. guys hate me on top of them in the gym i train at (cept for the three higher ranks, but they're blue belts and a brown belt aka the instructor). gut makes it hard to do any of the fancy roll around, throw my...
