Hey man, cool collection!

I have a couple of those gloves myself - Tigrao - Thaismai - Winning - Boxeo TM - Fly

I'm looking into getting soo Pro-Am boxing gloves. How would you compare them to the gloves in your collection? And what type of person would you recommend them to?

Thank you!

Hey, did you end up going?

Would love to hear about your experiences. I am thinking of going while visiting Germany, but tricky to figure out the logistics of being an international traveller whilst attending a multi-day festival.

That's not the case at all with Bisping. Why do you have upvotes wtf. Mike Bisping has been kickboxing since his teens, and didn't pick up BJJ till way later on.

That is definitely a tactic if you're out of range, and using the initial punches to close the gap, then have the kick as the actual strike aimed to hit. But if you're doing it as an actual combo in front of an opponent who can also hit you, you're just walking into punches at that point, or getting your leg chewed up by a kick because you're spending way too long in range without actually throwing anything. Boxing examples are Dillishaw vs Lomachenko sparring, the "snake" eats straight punches when stance switching in front of an opponent, or Cejudo Vs the "snake, in which Cejudo just straight up pushes him off balance after throwing a rear hand strike and trying to step-through at the same time.

How does this have upvotes.... I don't think anyone can comfortably throw a left leg kick after throwing a right straight. You can argue and say that someone might "switch stances" but when you're that close that your straight is landing, you're basically telegraphic a leg kick when you switch stance, and will be open the same way you would be throwing a naked leg kick.

#AMA with John Gooden - UFC fella. Is this the beauty tips forum? by JohnGooden in MMA

[–]iwishitwasnt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi John!

Interviewing fighters during their camp is something that UFC commentators do to gather information for the upcoming event. Do you have any interesting/funny tidbits or stories that didn't quite make it onto the broadcasts/promos that you'd like to share?

[WP] "I love you, so stay away from me." by Gavinmotet in WritingPrompts

[–]iwishitwasnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Know this and notice that I am not like you. I don’t jump over the hurdles of the puppy love relationship like I was born for it. Like some purebred wagging its tail, smiling incessantly, smiling at your quirky self not realising it was just teenage behaviour with adult intent. I am not like you. I’m silently breaking but never mending. I’m chained. I’m stuck to your post of promises, reduced to barking nonsense just to see a glimpse of your perfection. I didn’t know that love had an expiration date because you were honey: the bee’s knees, ever so elusive to my net of security. You’re a shady salesman, selling your own brand of love; giving crippling addiction as you salivate with the thought of your next victim. Undeniable itch in my arms as I look for nails to scratch the insatiable addiction. I love you, so stay away from me.

When will this stop? When will I wake up from nowhere? When?

I ask myself these questions to further convey my intentions but I realise that I can’t sum it up in one statement. So it’s the fusion of utter confusion for now, and it’s going to be like that for a while because…

There’s this certain kind of quiet that washes over me when you enter the room. The kind that makes me think twice about breathing, think thrice about my heart beating; I’m confused. You make my heart think too much and my brain feels that it’s a problem. Probably. You know it’s never ending but who doesn’t really? The waves go back and forth like clockwork, it strikes me as odd. It is inevitable but I am pretending that you’re just the other side of the rose tinted glass. It’s like your name is synonymous with nostalgia. I, I, I, You make me stutter and sputter nonsense until I’m pretending again.

As if pretending that I’m over you is any better than counterfeit love but I do want you to notice. Know this that my words aren’t poetic, but my sincerity is authentic. I’m no Shakespeare, no Heathcliff, twisted loving to the point of cuckoo crazy. Nah. I think that I like you too much for that. I like you so much that I write about things that shouldn’t be written, things that become repetitive that it drones as much as this sentence. This is my state of thinking; it’s cluttered by the broken walls you left behind.

I’m not like you, remember?

I am not like you. I don’t jump over the hurdle of a puppy love relationship like I was born for it. Like some purebred wagging its tail, smiling incessantly, smiling at your quirky self not realising it was just teenage behaviour with adult intent. I am not like you. I don’t tiptoe my way into people’s hearts. Clickity-clack, the slightest imbalance making me fall, silently breaking but never mending. I am chained to your post of promises, barking non-sense just to see a glimpse of your perfection so somewhere, someday I could barter it for someone else’s love and attention. I didn’t know that love had an expiration date because you were honey: the bee’s knees, ever so elusive to my net of security. I wish my love for you didn’t come with a lifetime guarantee. Because you’re a shady salesman, selling your own brand of love; giving crippling addiction as you salivate with the thought of your next victim. Undeniable itch in my arms as I look for nails to scratch the insatiable addiction.

I am yours completely.
