I got a friend who fukked his hand up something terrible when he tried to bang on one of those monster 300 400 lb bags. I tried to warn him but he ain't wanna listen dude never hit the bag before either but was trying to show me up and shyt. I was just talking shyt to cuz the other day about that too :heh:

I had a cat in my gym do the same thing too..the fukking bag was not only heavy but a little bumpy and like concrete..them old school joints.....first hard 1-2 combination i landed on it had me like :bryan:.my hands, wrists, and forearms went numb..i thought i broke them...after about 10 mins or so of shaking my hands out...i went back at it...this time concentrating more on speed and technique...my hands got acclimated after some time i was able to put a little more into it..one day this cat was seeing me do work on it and tried to get on me like "youre a big guy i know you can hit it harder than that"..i was like im being careful. when i was done with my rounds...i went to sit down and unwrap my hands and he hopped on it..terrible punching stance then throws like 4 full power punches on it unwrapped and no gloves..then he screamed "MOTHERfukkER"!!!! holding his right hand...he busted open his knuckles..disgusting sight yet i had the :mjpls: face the whole time lol

Stop banging that bag, thats all you can do, in the gym when I see people winding up and hitting the bag with all their might I just shake my head, you might as be punching a wall........

Focus speed, stamina, accuracy, and punch technique on the bag, contrary to power what most people do. Because speed accuracy, and punch technique translates to power, look how that grazing left right combo around moved/Hurt Canelo around rounds 3 or 4 and he wasnt throwing hard, that punch technique
who said i was banging the bag? :comeon:

my wrists cant take the power i generate. cause im a long skinny guy who can bang like tommy hearns. i see no fix for it. unless i somehow make my wrists thicker they gon take some abuse :manny:
:stopitslime:


Then you need to work the bag to learn how to stop throwing them girly limp wristed punches

Come feel these punches breh. They are far from girly limp wristed. They sound like gunshots breh.

I'm one of the ones who knows he can't go for the ko cause of his hands so you are preaching to the choir here.

Thats part of the reason but a lot have floyd's recent opponents never been stopped or barely ever get stopped
I mean he came close to knocking out Cotto was been stopped twice
and he knocked out Ortiz, besdies them to none of the guys he fought ever been KO'd
Jaun, Shane, the ghost, and Canelo never been stopped at all

Once you hands get fukked, all you can do is manage the pain/problem.

I remember Calzaghes hands were so brittle, he hardly sparred in the last 3-4 years of his career. iirc his sparring consisted of doing rounds on the heavy bag, jsut so he wouldnt fukk up his hands.

Naz had issues with his hands aswell, then again the way he use to hit Im not surprised

Its true, I only spar boxing twice a week but I don't go off on the heavy like I used to and my wrists feels much better.

yeah im very careful with hitting the bag..how I fukked up my wrist that one only time was because there was females in my vicinity..my hands are fast and I can crack so I decided turn it up x 10 from my routine....I went like 4 real hard 3 min rounds with 30 secs doing my best punisher imitation...on the 5th round I was hittin the bag southie..threw a left hand and my wrist hit that bag hard....in my mind im like :damn:..on the outside I slowed it down but didn't stop..didn't want the bytches to see that i fukked myself up..so after 6 rounds i stopped..i took off my glove off my left hand with difficulty..my shyt was swollen and tender...i thought it would go away but it only slightly improved..me being me...i worked out through it during the next 2 months..no bag work though..wrist wraps for when i was lifting...i was concerned so i when i went to my chiros for my usual adjustment and decompression sessions i told him about it and he knew what it was immediately...he did some kind of wrist lock and put it in back into place...had a nikka like :ohhh: because the pain was gone within secs..hopefully will never have to go through that again

all my brehs who throw hands for real have hand/wrist problems correct? I've broken all my knuckles several times, each hand once and my left wrist 3 times (have a very mild fracture now) it's just something that comes with the sport. I can't imagine punching with 8-10oz gloves on
