1 of my fav pad sessions of all time Joe N Enzo Calzaghe

A trainer with no experience has to walk on egg shells and tread slowly. I get to say do this it works because I have experience training athletes. I suggest you watch my series "What the heck is an internet boxing coach"

Maybe I am underestimating your experience?

What is your background in the sport?

What age did you start boxing?
Have you ever fought competitively? If so, how many bouts did you have?
How long did you box for?
How long have you been coaching?
Do you work (or have you worked ) out of an amateur / professional gym?

Tell us a bit about your experience mate.

Here is some career advice based on Experience.

"Old age is no longer synonymous with wisdom."

I was sought out and hired to consult for a company called All American Heavyweights in LA. I taught with Henry Tillman(Gold Medalist), Tommy Brooks (World Renown) Simon Brown (2 time world champion) John Bray (Amateur Legend Great Trainer) to name a few.

1 day I was working with an athlete. At 6'7 this dude kept leaning in above his torso to throw punches. So eventually I put a chair between us for understanding. After training was over Henry Tillman destroyed me in a meeting saying "You don't fight with a chair in the ring" and that I should never do that again. I was the youngest least accomplished guy there... Anyway weeks later Henry Tillman was using the chair to work on the range of a different athlete.

Older trainers often times only know what was taught to them. Older trainers often times never learned how to teach. So your right in some regard. I seek info and listen to mentors that talk smart and know how to teach. I will continue to disregard mediocrity even if the so called trainer is whomever, whatever.

My advice to you is that you create and seek the truth. More importantly learn how to teach. Then and only then will you will ever be able to get close to my level mentally as a trainer.

Really I'm done with you Authority. I find you too be quite ignorant and worse proud of it.

If you need my resume message me your email and I will send it to you. Most people here know what I have done at the age of 31 in my career. I would really look like a prick if I ran down my resume for you here on this forum.

Additionally, I have done business like no other boxing trainer in the history of boxing training. You can't understand simple stuff so if we got into the business aspect of how I get calls and emails to do seminars, fight preps, etc globally...it would go over your head.

Send me a message with your email if you need my resume or go to my youtube channel.

Awesome discussion guys. Please keep it coming. Thanks for sharing Mr. Corso and Mr. Robinson

I wonder how much time he spent on the mitts compared to a heavy bag??
Ray.

Calzaghe had a history of hand problems towards the latter part of his career and as a result trained almost exclusively with the focus mitts...

[Live2box]

Yeah that's explains it. I once worked with a pro boxer with same problem.

[PinoyNation]

Not squaring up and not sitting on his punches more never seemed to hurt Calzaghe's career.

Yes, neither did Hector Camacho Snr (God bless his soul), but he did stopped the great Sugar Ray Leonard towards the end of his career which came as a surprise to many people.

What I want to know is: how the **** did Calzaghe get so fast? As Barry stated, Calzaghe was wearing bulky 20oz gloves but was managing to put serious heat on his punches and was whipping through his combinations. That was some serious speed
