    Foreman - Heavybag on the back of a truck

    Just saw this article about Foreman's comeback where he talks about his training -- http://articles.latimes.com/1995-11-...george-foreman -- but I never heard of this heavybag on the back of a truck before. Anyone got pics/know any more info?

    Q: Tell us about one memorable exercise when you were making your comeback.

    A: My trainer, Charley Shipes, and I welded a piece of metal hung high on the outside of a truck so we could hang the punching bag on it. We would drive for miles with the punching bag hanging to the side. As he drove slowly I would follow him punching the bag and running at the same time.

        Here's Ann Wolfe training James Kirkland in a similar fashion:

            I'd love to see Deontay Wilder do this. The coordination required would short circuit his brain.

              Wish Kirkland would've stuck with Ann Wolfe. All his losses are when he didn't train with her. Although, I'm not exactly sure if that would've helped against Canelo.
