I'm looking to get a Heavy Bag 70lb. and a Double-End Bag for home training. And would like to get some opinions from those who train at home, about the equiptment you use.

Opinions & Recommendations On - Pros & Cons:

- Bag Brand: TKO vs. Everlast vs. Century

- Material: Leather vs. Nevatear vs. Vinyl vs. Canvas

- Filling: Prefilled Material vs Water Filled Bag

- Bag gloves

Total Budget = Under $200 for everything {Heavy Bag & Double bag}

................... Thanks Guys

I'll stick with the 14 oz gloves.



Bull piss? Sitting watching TV with my hands in brine? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Nah, I'll pass, hahaha.

hahhahaha..I can just picture that shit..Watching some basketball while soaking my hands in brine..hahaha..A lot of old schoolers did that shit..Bull piss is the extreme..I'd rather use brine if I were to do something like that to my face..My trainer said he used to soak his hands and face in brine and his face would smell like pickle juice!!hahahaha..NASTY SHIT..

If none of you have heard of this Jack Dempsey book I suggest you get it..It's called A Flame of Pure Fire--Jack Dempsey and the roaring 20's...It's about 500 pages long..In that book Dempsey talks about the bull piss thing and the brine..He's a crazy ass dude..

I heard some shit that Dempsey used to chew on tree bark or something to strengthen his jaw. Any of that mentioned in the book?

Nope,no mention of that..Right now I'm at a part where it's talking about how he might of been pimping his wife to make money..He knew she was a prostitute before he married her and was ok with it..She was like 15-20 years older than him too..haha..He was 22 at the time..

I'm surprised at how easy it was to take advantage of Dempsey..He got paid NOTHING for the Willard fight..Kearns lost a bet on that Dempsey would KO Willard in the first and took it out of Dempsey's pay even though he never said he would KO Willard,especially since Willard had never been KO'd..Dempsey was real pissed about it but Kearns talked his way out of it..Then Kearns took out traveling expenses and training expenses..Dempsey had a feeling about this but Kearns was also making up for his loses in money he spent on booze,other gambling,and chicks..Kearns,instead of buying a chick roses or something on the first date,would buy them piano's!!!!
