7 posts and 3mil?? Damn I wish i was a newb during these times. It took me like a year to get a mil...

Let my get this straight, you get K.O'ed by your own gloves when you use to them block your opponents hits? lol

Id suggest tighten up on the block side of it, serioulsly start watchin James Toney and Winky Wright helped me to mix it up whem in in the ring keep at it bro

keep your hands closer to your body and ur gloves up by ur temple when your in a defensive stance and when someone throws a body punch lean to the side of the punch this will make ur elbow shift down and block the punch

i startee boxing i used the earmuff's defence...jsut like winky wright...have your gloves tucked up near your temples...make sure your not squaered up so you can cover up your body more

so do the gloves touch the temple??

For getting hit in the gut, I lay down and drop the medicine ball and hit myself with it in my stomach. Or get get a partner and throw it at eachother's stomach from like 5 feet away or so. Just breath out quick, like your throwing a punch, to brace yourself for the hit.

i am Scottish and i am 15 years old but i am dyslexic so i don't have good spelling and my punctuality is not well ether. thank you for the tips now to get a medicine ball :P

it shouldnt matter if your dyslexic your using a keyboard, I also have mild dyslexia but it only really affects me when I read or write things on paper

If you think getting hit by your won gloves is bad, try dropping them.....

Beat me too it!

For taking body shots u need to do sit ups, matt exercises and get a partner to drop and hit u with a medicine ball. U just need to keep sparring and eventually the body shots wont bother u as much. If ur gloves keep hitting ya face, then tell ya trainer and he will show u how to parry/moveaway from certain shots instead of taking them on the gloves all the time.

today i was not at the gym today so i spared with my friend today at home i got hit in the stomach alot but it didn't bother me as much thank you for the tips.
