I just got this heavy bag a month ago, and this summer, I plan to go to a gym and learn how to box.

Please watch them and tell me if you think I am ready to go to a gym or not.

Its all about heart kid, if you really want it and you will sacrifice what you have to to get it then you can do anything.

However, I would maybe get that footage off of the net, it is rather horrible to say the least. But save it. Because if you go to the gym and learn the trade you can come back and look at these videos and know exactly what I was talking about aswell as how much youve grown as a boxer.

Where there is a will there is a way!!!

Thanks, Rockin. I agree, if I do start to box and learn how to do everything right, I will probably look back at those vodeos and laugh at them.

Did you ever or do you box, Rockin?

nice way of putting it.
you dont have any idea about what your doing. go to a gym, then laugh at those videos later.

And after I go to a gym this summer, I will let you guys know how I am doing, and I will tell you guys how I do if I can get some fights before football season starts.

Thanks, Rockin. I agree, if I do start to box and learn how to do everything right, I will probably look back at those vodeos and laugh at them.

Yeah, I fought for Jackie Kallen out of Galaxy. Long story but I did it.

If you dont straigthen out your wrists your going to break them once you hit something. You will fight how you practice to fight. Practice does not make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect.

So I should punch exactly straight into the bag? Kind of curved will break my wrists?

Oh boy, are you serious?

Dude, I dont want to put you on a downer for the rest of the day but you need to learn how to box quick. The only thing im gonna give you credit for was your stance, which was semi-right and the best part about your video's. But you posted these video's for criticism right?

You were tired easy, your punches had poor technique, your balance was horrendous, my nan saw your hooks coming, your chin was out to dry, you hugged the bag and then rabbit punched it, you stood square on, you took your shirt off for no apparent reason, your shots were slow, your shots were bent, your elbows were up, you moved your head wrong when throwing the shots, you didnt transfer your weight through the shot, you didnt defend your face with the alternate hand when throwing with the other, you didnt look at the bag, you moved around it wrong/not enough.

Peace.

I only watched maybe the firt 20 seconds of your clip. Every time you throw your shots your wrists are titled towards the ground. Its going to cause you some pain in the future once you get sparring.

When I bust into a bag my wrists are just about perfectly straight and firm, yes.

Rockin' :boxing:

dude, you punch like a retard. All it takes is a step back with left uppercut and your flat on the ground you punching too wild you definately need to get some lessons fighting like that is going to cost you in the future


"A true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength but by the strength of his heart"

i think dude is just joking around with these videos. or at least parts of them

Get help pronto........but it shows you have balls posting the vids in the first place.Good Luck. :boxing:

Completely agree...

you should go to a gym as soon as possible and dont train urself cuz u will pick up a lot of bad habits and they aint easy to correct once ur used to them. good luck m8.

i think dude is just joking around with these videos. or at least parts of them


this is what i thought too.


but if he is serious then i'd recommend do a lot of shadow boxing by a mirror and PUT SOME HANDWRAPS ON YOUR HANDS BEFORE YOU HURT YOURSELF.

I'm sorry to the gentleman in the video, but that was the funnyest shit i've seen in a while.

i'm a noob at boxing, but im guessing this is good (no, this isn't me):

Well, he looks well conditioned and fairly fast, but he's got a lot of bad habits too.

I don't like the way he tip toes around when punching, and the beginning when he punches going backwards, his feet become lined up. Not good. His feet and hands go out of sync sometimes, as if he has no rythm.
Also, he needs to learn how to throw his straight left, just that; straight. His elbows all up in the air, taking some of the power and speed out of it, and that also means he's using more energy throwing it like that. His hooks aren't clean punches either.

yup, and as i noticed right away the as he shadow boxed his wrist were all wack, but im not sure if he punchs the bag like that, if he does good thing he's using a light bag. but i think hes just hitting the bag for a work-out not as...a boxers work out on the heavy bag. but he was a bit robotic too. but he defently has practiced more then then guy in the other video. practice and form is all

Mayorga anyone?? Haha

Give training a shot man, I think you'll love it.

man oh god mannnn. u need to go to a gym

boxing isnt about the bench press or how well you lift weights. its about technique. u need help

no hate or nuttin but ur shots ur sloppy...elbows were out n ur shots wernt str8..sort ur wrists out homie

round 3 made me laugh..u elbowed the bag lol...also it looks like ur hooks u like str8 ..wierd..u putti n2 much power in ur shots so they slow

I like the song about Vietnam in round 2...bitch.

You have a Ricardo Mayorga attitude and fight style. Also, you have good power and speed.

yup the hooks remind me of Mayorga

You have a Ricardo Mayorga attitude and fight style. Also, you have good power and speed.
How many points did you get given to say this? :confused:

^i liked ur paragraph b4..gud explaition

Thanks. :)

Computer says no.... :(

Computer says no.... :(

Haha. He has a Ricardo Mayorga attitude and style because of the round 3 bitch, round 4 bitch, argghhhh, gahhhh, ughhhh, and because of the hooks that were thrown.
And he has alright power and speed speed is easy if you have no guard up
:hijacked:

i dnt think he has gud speed n power cus of his form..he had no balence n no gud form which results in lack of speed...power comes frm speed so if hes got no speed...then no power it is

Too many arm punches. You've got to pivot, put the whole body in there when you throw those punches.

Go train properly. That was. I laughed out loud. I mean, i assume you watch boxing, so you should at least have some semblance of nice punches just from watching... apparently not.

Oh well, don't be discouraged, go to the gym and get your technique down. You seem to have good handspeed.

Oh, and don'r ever throw that wild punch that you threw - was it a loooooping left hook? I think so. Don't throw that, EVER. Someone will see that, and either shoot out their short left and KO you, or they'll duck under your punch and ko you with a right.

His hooks weren't wide enough :rolleyes:

I think you need alot more training. But don't give up, go learn to fight properly... I tell you if you were trying to hit me.. I think I could go have a powernap before that hook comes around.. It's a lil' slow man. But gl on getting it tamed.. Wild wrists O_O

i want to slap this kid for posting that trash...if the bag could hit back with just a jab, this dude would have been unrecognizable to his own mother

MAn that was poor. My little brother can box better than that and he's 9. Ure stance was ok, but you need to straighten out your arms. Breathe out when you punch, no wonder you got tired so quickly, you where holding your breath whilst punching. Move around the bag while punching and dont just throw punches for the sake of it, hit the bag when it is moving away from you, go up close and land flurrys etc. But the most important thing is keep your bloody guard up. You woulda been down in the first round in sparring.


Sorry if its harsh but its true


:boxing:

the dude luks like a nerd that plays alot of online games.

no offense but havnt u atleast watched boxing videos, i learnt how to punch by just watching it, u shud do the same

Thanks. I play varsity football as a freshmen, baseball and run track. I use to play basketball and hockey. Nerd? :confused:

Ok, from reading all of your guys posts, you are saying I pretty much suck. I will probably agree with all you after I go to a gym. But I will be much better if I do go to a gym because I do have heart, and I kno never to quit because I have a great mindset for what I want and when I want it, and that coems from playing football.

OK I TAKE THAT back, its probably coz u had glasses on. i think.

remember its not a "BOXING BAG"

its a "PUNCH BAG" bcoz its use for conditioning, you "CANT" become a boxer with a "PUNCH BAG"

it takes shadow boxing and sparring

Thanks. I will take it slow for now, and learn the easy stuff. And once I go to a gym, I should have the basics down.

The only thing you need to do is get your ass in a gym. You won't ever get the basics down on your own, trust me.

That video was horrible. You're doing it all wrong, and the longer you go on, the harder it's going to be for a trainer to correct you, because you'll be set in your ways. Do yourself a favor, leave that bag alone and go to a gym!

Edit: Nobody at the gym is going to expect you to have the basics down, when you show up there, so don't worry about that.
You should realize that you're nowhere NEAR having the basics down. A coach is gonna think you're a fool if you show up the first day, thinking you have the basics down! THAT'S what you should be worried about.

Oh, I see. Well it will not be to long until I finally go to a gym. Actaully, in less than a month will be my first day (June 20 something). So that is not too long away.

Yeah, I use my digital camera to do my vids.

Yea dude, just hit the gym and learn the proper techniques, you'll improve greatly from "that"

That was quite possibly the funniest video ever posted on this site by an amateur boxer.

THis is the truth. You either have it or you dont. Right now you definately DO NOT have it. You should go to a gym and get some help immediately.

How much experience do you have? Not much I gather. Therefore you should listen to people with more experience than you. That is how you learn, not by thinking you know it all, when you haven't even had ONE fight. You CAN pick up a few things by yourself, by with every one thing you pick up, you'll get 10 bad habits that will take months for a trainer to correct.

And guess what? Mystyal's got a long way to go too. Maybe there's a reason his trainer's not getting him any fights yet? ;)

i boxed by myself b4 i ever went to the gym and the trainers there said i was doing everything correct, just a few tips here and there and dats it. u probably need it and ur friends coz you'se are slow in the head

Haha, right. You did everything correct. Oscar De La Hoya doesn't, Joe Calzaghe doesn't, heck even Floyd doesn't do everything correct. That's why everyone needs a trainer. You might not be big enough to admit that you've made a foolish statement, but I'm pretty sure everyone can see that you're reaching with that one.
Oh, and if I'm so slow, how come you're the one who's writing as if you're retarded? Or maybe you're just too gangster to write properly? :D

lol he got you :hijacked:

wow...balls for posting that video...but everyone starts somewhere...i do have one question...i don't box I mma so maybe its different but you guys kept saying that his elbows were to high...what exactly did you mean by that.

Your guard is very high in one video, its leaving your body open to alot of shots! If you want to learn a bit more of boxing before you get to the gym try looking some stuff up on the internet or get a book. A good book is 'real punching' by geoff thompson. Good luck

Also "Box Like The Pros" by Joe Frazier is a great book.

Don't worry everybody, after going to a gym and learing how to properly box this summer, I will be much better, and I won't look like a terrible noob anymore. Not too long till I go to a gym, less than a month.

watch exiges shadowboxing video and try to shorten your punches a little bit before going to a gym

I guess I stumbled on this thread a little late cuz at first i only saw the first two clips and didnt htink he was that bad. I saw how yall were saying how bad he was and was a little confused. Then I saw the 3rd clip...

I will say you have improved much from your first couple of clips. All you have to do is watch some fights and youll atleast get an idea of how to punch. Unless your watching Mayorga fights there is no reason you should have picked up on punching like that.

stop acting like a smartass, u know what i meant dumbass. i was doing all the basic things in punching and footwork properly.

Oh! Well, if you cal me smartass and dumbass, and cry like a little girl, then of course I'll agree with you. You learned boxing technique all by yourself.

I will say you have improved much from your first couple of clips. All you have to do is watch some fights and youll atleast get an idea of how to punch. Unless your watching Mayorga fights there is no reason you should have picked up on punching like that.

Thank you. You are one of the first positive ones, haha.
