    Which boxer is Steve Fox based on?

    He's not based on anyone in particular but his moveset seems to be heavily influenced by Hajime No Ippo (which in itself is a weaboo boxing anime). Dempsey Roll (rolling hooks) - Ippo Smash (fadeaway 3/4 uppercut) - Sendo White Fang (uppercut-chopping right combo) - Volg Zangief Hitman...

    Sabas Stock Pro series valcro 14 Oz

    I think Sabas might be a victim of its own exposure. There's been a lot of good talk about their gloves and that's probably led to an influx of demand. Their producers might be cutting corners to keep up (which would be ridiculous). I've had my Primes for about 6 months and haven't used them...

    Sabas Pro Series Prime Gloves 16oz Review and Comparison

    I've had my gloves for about 4 months now, but I haven't used them as regularly as I have my other gloves because I haven't trained as frequently as I used to (gym closed down for a month during a move, was ill for a period of time). So far I have mixed feelings about them. The leather...

    Title Pro Mex 2.0

    Has anyone had a chance to try Title's new Pro Mex's? I bought a pair for a friend around 3 years ago of the original version and remember them being really hard and compact for training gloves. I know they're supposed to be bad Cleto Reyes knockoffs but I'm curious if they've gotten any...

    Dear god, watching someone whose grammar is abysmal mock others for their English is painful.

    New heavy bag choice help

    To be honest 80-100 pounds isn't really thar big a deal when you start. Title is also selling this one: https://www.titleboxing.com/punching-bags/traditional-heavy-bags/title-classic-double-end-punching-bag At 100 pounds for less than 100$ if you're interested.

    New heavy bag choice help

    Hey, congrats on getting into a fun if it exhausting new hobby! Firstly I strongly suggest you go ahead and go to a gym. I know its REALLY intimidating but the longer you put it off the more intimidating it will get since you'll build it up as this terrifying thing. Also, going means you'll...

    Christmas Gift need quick advice

    Rival is awesome if you get their high end stuff.

    Christmas Gift need quick advice

    Cleto's are incredibly high quality gloves with really good leather, stitching, and padding. The general consensus is that the PRO gloves' padding is meant to transfer more punching power and thus protects the hands less, but the TRAINING gloves (what you're buying) have ample protection...

    Tyson's height

    Most likely he meant he was 5'10 by the slightest of margins, which would be a "pathetic" 5'10.

    Going down twice from one punch.

    I'm not sure if it counts, but Stiverne definitely folded forward after folding backwards in his rematch against Wilder. He didn't quite get up, but he sure looked like he was trying.

    Apollo Creed’s trainer

    Well, he did finally have money, fame, and a loving, healthy wife. I think on a more subtextual note it was supposed to show that Rocky the character had become "civilised" and refined and didn't have the hunger that he had in the first two movies. His training was a circus act and he...

    Head guard?

    Face savers limit vision, makes your head bigger due to its size, and can act as a bad fulcrum on your neck if you take a hit the wrong way. Its major advantage is it better protects your nose and jaw. Open face headgear doesn't protect as well, but gives you much better vision and a smaller...

    Educate me on Rigondeaux

    How much of that was his fault, though? Honestly I don't know because I really didn't start following boxing until a few years ago, but I remember reading that no one WANTED to fight Rigondeaux and they couldn't get anyone to match him. The Ring explained their demotion of him, though, but...

    Head guard?

    Title and ringside make good amateur gear that HAS to be a certain level of quality. Titles "Platinum" Training Headgear is great, too.

    "Boxing" Sparing Gloves

    16oz is always a good standard. Title classic lace ups are good cheap reliable sparring gloves. Triumph United Death Adders are affordable and getting some favorable reviews here. Ringside's leather IMF lace ups are solid choices.
