The two I posted was $150-$175...I'm trying to stay round that range... But I would go over if I saw something that was worth it to me

You using for the bag or sparring. If you got a little money I would suggest you get 2 pair if you can. Hitting the bag will take cushion out of hit after a while. Therefore you 2 pair of different gloves.

knuckle pushups are real difficult and hurt like hell after but are very effective. You can feel your hands are heavier in 5 days

i do these religiously..every morning for like the past decade

Floyd Mayweather Jr. 'open' to rematch with Saul Alvarez - Ring TV

Translation: we would love to get over that 1 million PPV buys hump again and we can't do that unless we fight Canelo again.

Canelo Will Only Fight Pacquiao at 154, No Catch-Weight - Boxing News

So, Canelo is basically saying "fukk you" to TR, Team Pacquiao, and anyone else trying to make him fight at 150 and says those days of fighting outside of his weight class is over.

He also says he learned that by fighting Floyd at 152 and will never fight outside whatever weight class he's presently in.

Sounds like he thinks he was a little drained by fighting Floyd at 152, but that's another story. As of now, unless Pacquiao agrees to fight at the full 154 weight limit, then a Manny Pacquiao vs Canelo Alvarez fight will never happen

“At the right weight, we’ll [Pacquiao] fight him,” Roach said to the Boxing Channel. “I think the biggest he [Pacquiao] can fight is 150…I know [Canelo] came down to 152 for Mayweather…He’s a much bigger guy than Manny. If we can get a catch-weight that is fair to both of them, I think it would be a good fight.” - Freddie Roach...Manny Pacquiao's trainer

“It will be a substitute for a fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr, and will be the next biggest fight and may very well rival a Manny-Floyd fight. [It’s] a fight we’ll probably do next year. We cannot go into the ring if there is no catch-weight. It’s too dangerous. We are not trying to get any advantage but just trying to protect the health of Manny.” - Michael Koncz...Manny Pacquiao's advisor

Read more at Koncz: Pacquiao cannot fight Canelo without a catch-weight

Canelo would be a zombie at 150 against Manny and EVERY fighter that has fought Manny at a catchweight has looked slow and not as powerful anymore

im cool with that... Pac has nothing to prove by fighting guys that will outweigh him by that much.

all i know is i have no interest in seeing floyd-canelo 2..none at all..they would have to have 2 certifiable crack and competitive on paper fights on the undercard (all 4 fighters have to be notable) for me to even think about spending money on that...nothing like that floyd-maidana undercard..im talking about some real fights
