1st day of mitt training...

[Cassius Liston]

oh btw its an ok vid.....i just wish i had someone to take the time with me on the pads....our gym has too many boxers and only two trainers....and i get the feeling they don't have the patience....i'd pay rick just for the time on the mitts....so count yourself lucky

I'm on the computer 8 hrs a day for work so I have a lot of time to watch videos and read up before the gym. O_O But if you remember Floyd's interviews he's always talking about technique and turning your punches is one of them.

yeah...i turn into everything....especially the double jab....it felt awkward before i got used to it....now i always turn no matter what.....i like to think its similar to Dirrels he turns into them really good

Wow wasn't expecting such a negative response for coach rick, im sure it has some sort of signifigance since floyd does do this mitt work on the regular? I've only met up with rick once so far so i dont know what else he coaches or if its just that type of mitt routines?? It has helped in some areas though, if i throw a straight right hand its becoming muscle memory to either go under a left hook or to catch one... so thats good, no?

thats def a good habit.
