that's what I tought as well but some people are always telling me I have too much of that ****..... I mean, this is the least a fighter needs.... I should have a head protecter and a body protector as well but I preffer not to wear em cause IMO you should get used to getting some damage in training if you want to fight for real!

I had:

*1 pair of shinpads
*1 VUT headgear

1 pair of forearm shields
2 mouthpieces
1 groin protector
1 HCK hot-weather bjj gi

2 pairs of running shoes

Everything with a * next to it got stolen out of my car 3 weeks before my fight last year. Talk about a piss off. I had just written my name on my shinpads & gloves too.

It doesn't only look small.... It is small.... I need a bigger one but when I bought it I had no idea what size to pick so I picked medium.... The whole set (the elastic ties) fit perfectly but the cup itsself is to ****ing small..... Usually things go good but sometimes when I get hit in the groin a piece of skin (of my balls) get caught between my leg and my cup... that **** hurts!

In other words... a second cup is on the way......

Dave, I have got running shoes too.... two pairs indeed. I also got special clothing for running! However odd it may sound I do think that clothing is important when running. You need tight fit, light clothes that keep you warm! I love my outfit!

I have a gi. 2 pair boxing gloves, one pair bag mitts, one pair focus mitts. I also mostly train in boardies. Don't have a cup as I am a real man and a real man takes the pain.

I also have a blown up to full life cardboard cut out of RTB's av!

I think the scariest thing in this thread is the fact that RTB has a half naked picture of himself as an avatar. Vain, arn't we all?

That goes a long way towards explaining how you can sing Italian Castrato operetas during your moonlighting gig.

Word.

I'm still working on my gear as most of my old TKD gear won't fit I'm wagering....

1 mouthguard
1 pair of forearm guards
1 pair of shin guards
1 undersized cup (from when I was 16 and training)
1 headgear

more recent gear
1 bjj gi
1 pair of handwraps
1 pair of boxing gloves

Half of my gymbag is full of weight training gear
1 weightlifting belt
2 pairs of wraps (one wrap missing)
3 pairs of weight gloves

Need to gear some grappling boots badly and some proper grappling gear.
