    I hold focus mitts very much like you do. I push back a split second before impact to give it some resistance. That's how my instructor taught us to hold mitts. We are also taught to push back when holding Thai pads as well.

    It's good to hit the punches as they come in. Makes you have to hit harder to try and go through the target.

    That said, I don't hit anything.


    It hits all by itself.

    I was not the one who fought SifuExcuses. That was Anthony.

    SifuExcuses is coming for me sometime, whenever, maybe, if, could......

    My standup is light years ahead of SifuExcuses, even though my ground game is my strength.

    well, Mr. retarded version of Dieter, I wish I was able to do form work for my bout. I would have done much better.

    Lets see your pathetic ass get in a ring and not look like a male prostitute in front of "the crazyhorse".
