@OCC – yikes! I thought nobody used those anymore. Are you feeding it into a personal reader or a website?

Into a reader on my phone, I actually think people are starting to use these more and more on smartphones (over here in europe at least)…

@OCC – I’ll try to incorporate the feed again. I had it before but removed it thinking nobody would use it. Now that it’s been requested, I’ll see if I can put it back. Thanks.

I clarified that I do not speak English, so if it seems strange the way I write is why I am using the google translator to let my comments speak Spanish?

Hey Tyson, it might matter if your country doesn’t have a strong amateur boxing program or professional boxing interest.

TYSON December 3, 2011 at 4:40 pm

YES, BUT FOR EXAMPLE, IF THAT IS NOT MY COUNTRY WHICH IS BETTER TO GO AA train another country?

Reply

Johnny N December 3, 2011 at 4:56 pm

Most boxers always try to come to America to go professional.

Thanks for the website man, im going to join a boxing gym soon and all the information in your website has made me much more confident, before reading your articles i didn’t think i was good enough to join a gym.

E.Robinson January 5, 2012 at 2:54 pm

Thank you for the great tips, I’ve put many of them to work in the ring and have found them extremely helpful-especially the shoulder roll article. I also just read the article on Mayweather’s 10 tricks and found it very entertaining and useful. I was wondering if you had any more advice on dieting, before workouts, for meals etc.?
Thank you very much, keep up the good work.

Johnny N January 9, 2012 at 7:36 am

Hey E,

There’s definitely advice on all of those. Please check out the diet section and ask a question there if you need more help.

Should I do weighted clap push ups followed by unweighted ones to punch faster? And will olympic lifts help?

Reply

Johnny N January 11, 2012 at 7:23 am

Maybe and no. Push-ups increase your performance but will they guarantee a speed increase? Maybe, maybe not. It depends on how you’re doing them. As for olympic lifts, stay away from that.

Reply

Malik January 12, 2012 at 11:05 am

I’m also playing football so not doing olympic lifts is not an option. Couldn’t I just compliment them with plyometrics? and what exercises can I do for ko power because I live in a really bad neighborhood where there is constant fighting (not that I don’t enjoy a fight lol) but its alot of jumping going on and I want to know how to handle the situations and its not an option to walk away because u will get attacked while your turned away so can you please inform me on some exercises or is clap push ups and russian twists good enough?

Reply

Johnny N January 13, 2012 at 2:43 pm

A good exercise for power is the jump rope. It forces your body to apply force all at once in a short burst. Much better than a push-up if you ask me.

How do l train my body(head body) to withstand punchs and counter

Reply

Johnny N January 28, 2012 at 12:25 am

Train your defensive reflexes. With better reflexes and improved awareness of incoming punches, you will be able to absorb them better.

Tough tough call, Michael. For boxing FANS, my favorite has got to be Arturo Gatti vs Micky Ward (1).

Hi Johnny, and everybody!

I’ve been boxing for a few weeks now and found the site to be awesome! Very nice written and with good and straight foward tips! But now I gotta ask for help from you guys:

I’m from Brazil and my girlfriend is travelling to States in May (Chicago and Miami) and I’ve been looking all over the net to find good stores where to buy boxing goods (sparring gloves, mostly) in those cities – the good ones – Cleto Reyes, Grant, Title, etc – But all I could find is the Spots Authority and big chains who sells just the everlast cheap range. Does anybody knows any places in Chicago or Miami?

Thank you very much!
Keep up the good work!

Reply

Johnny N April 11, 2012 at 2:46 pm

I don’t know the area but you can call one of the boxing gyms in Chicago and ask them where they buy their gear or if they know any stores around.

Ahmad April 21, 2012 at 2:17 am

Hi Johnny,
Thanks for your help man. I was wondering what to do to make judges believe that you are the better one when it is hard to chose from the two boxers. Or, put simply, how to show that you are the agressive one?

Reply

Jason L April 21, 2012 at 9:34 pm

Jonny, I just wanted to say thank you so much for what you contribute to the boxing community. You truly are a man to look up to. It takes a certain kind of person to devote so many hours of their life to help others. I am an EMT and rarely see people as selfless as you even in the medical feild. You are helping the entire sport by motivating and teaching many boxers that are probably going to love the sport and want to stick with it 5 times more because of this website. If only there were more people like you in this world it would be a much better place! Thanks again and take care you are one of the best things that ever happened to boxing !

Reply

Johnny N April 25, 2012 at 3:08 pm

Thank you Jason. I’m honored to be an inspiration for others. Keep boxing!

Ricardo May 2, 2012 at 7:22 pm

Great site! I have learned so much thanks to you. I now have a question. I am currently trying to buy a weighted pair of boxing gloves from Title. Do you think it is a good idea? I am looking to hit the heavy bag with them.

Reply

Johnny N May 8, 2012 at 11:56 am

I don’t like the idea of weighted gloves. If I had to use them, I would use them for shadowboxing not heavy bag.

Reply

Ricardo May 8, 2012 at 7:20 pm

I think I will not buy them afterall. Thanks. :D
