Who got the Most Handspeed And Potential in this Forum?

[DA1CATAS]

I dont see how you guys can tell by videos. The camera angles and speeds have a lot to do with it. Some cameras will make things look so much quicker, some slower, not to mention angles. I guess you can tell form, technique , footwork ect... from a vid (expecially digital vids taken by cheap cameras) but handspeed seems like the least likey thing you'd be able to judge from some of these bad quality vids. IS hand speed everything though? someone could have quick hands but not hurt a fly. Also, you'll have one person hitting a set of training mits with taped hands and another hitting a heavy bag or person with 16oz gloves. I dont know about you guys, but im like lightening with just my hands compared to 16 oz gloves especially after a few rounds of training.

these guys have all been out of the gym for long periods of time so I figured they forgot the logic.

You were Nice to refresh their memory. I was gonna let them stay oblivious to the fact.

I think u read wrong

lol nope your wrong, it's highly recommended! this is from Rosstraining.com :

'This tip is directed to those combat athletes who compete while wearing a mouthpiece. I’ll get right to the point. If you fight with a mouthpiece, you need to train with your mouthpiece.

Consider the sport of boxing. You will always box while wearing a mouthpiece. Unfortunately, it is very rare to see a boxer hitting the bag while wearing his mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is only worn during sparring sessions. The sparring session therefore is used not only to develop sport-specific attributes (ex. combination punching), but it also takes on the task of familiarizing the fighter with his mouthpiece. This is a mistake.

When you constantly hit the bag without a mouthpiece, you get used to breathing through your mouth, rather than biting down on the mouthpiece (and breathing through the nose). Your breathing patterns are not “sport-specific” to what you will be doing inside the ring.

Whether you are hitting the mitts with your coach or hitting the heavy bag on your own, you should wear your mouthpiece.

As a youngster, I was taught to run with my mouthpiece. I learned to breathe through my nose during brisk roadwork sessions. A fighter who breathes through his mouth will be much more susceptible to a knockout. You need to bite down on the mouthpiece while fighting on the inside. A solid punch (or kick) to the chin will be devastating to the fighter whose mouth is wide open. Learn to breathe through the nose by training with your mouthpiece.'
