          how is that when we saw the speed ball pop on camera compared to floyd's behind doors? lol

          Unless your trying to say floyds is more impressive...

          Anyway i dont think its amazing but im sure people would show them doing it more often if they could do it at will...think he was just proving how technically gifted he is lol

            I've seen guys bleed. Every day. Have you ever seen a speed bag explode from a punch?
            In all the time I spent in L.A gyms, I've seen speed bags go out all the time.

            I haven't however seen as many guys bleeding in sparring with headgear. I've been hit in the nose a ton of times flush and never bled once.

            I guess it just depends if you think busting a speed bag is supposed to be a scary thing.

            I think they just showed it cuz' it put emphasis on the end of a training session.

              It aint impossible to make somebody bleed in sparring... especially when you are at Floyd's level.

                Ive busted mine before. The Floyd thing was just nasty, but I dont think it was staged. Im sure a lot of guys would come out lookin that way if they didnt know what they were doin.

                  I have not seen one pop but at the gyms I have been too the trainer are always quick to warn anyone when they are hitting the speed bag to hard.

                  Trainers are probably concerned about the speed bag popping.

                    GTFO.

                    Guys bleed all the TimE!

                    I've seen Luevano bleed from a guy with a pro record of 1-2(1ko).

                    The only time you cant really bleed is if your nose is cauterize, facebar headgear, or just excellent defense. Stop saying **** dap.

                      Exactly guys bleed all the time.

                      The sight of blood does not always tell what happened during a boxing match nor does it tell you what happened during a sparring match.

                      Obviously 24/7 is trying to hype up the fight, so those who have no idea would assume that guy was beaten up to a pulp. just because he got a bloody nose.

                      For all we know floyd could have been working on his stick and move game and one flush jab busted that nose.

                      So no I do not think the busted nose or the speed bag incident was staged.
