my new winning gear

[fdotorres]

i went to LA and got a chance to visit the Winning store

the manager (kazumichi) was very nice and hospitable, not to mention funny as hell. he gave me as a gift an old newspaper article about alexis arguello, autographed by him. hahaha his reason for giving me that was "i don't understand spanish, take it". he also has tons of pics form de la hoya, pacman, marquez, tyson, etc.

they have plenty of gear over there, but it's pretty darn expensive (especially with that freaking 10% absurd tax they have in cali)

anyway here's a couple of pics i took (cellphone, sorry). this one's form the entrance



and this is my freaking new gearrrrrrrr

sweet gear man , and a very nice gesture from the manager . I've never tried winning before but hear nothing but good things ( hey if pacquiao , mayweather and others wear them without endorsments they've got to be good) .

I've got a pair of fighting sports gloves which people say are very similar to winning.


They feel fantastic and i'm needing a new pair very soon , so i think i'll shell out for some winnings this time

seriously man ? i've had mine for just over year and they've been great , to each their own i guess , i would have gotten winning but these were more easily available in the uk at the time , i'm definitely going to go for winnings in the next week or so and in white for a change , i always go for balck or red gloves

nope

there are only 2 places to buy winning: japan and cali

there's a few sites that sell them too, so try searching and see if someone ships it for less

thanks man

they aren't similar. not even close

i have both the fighting bag gloves (old version) and the training gloves (new version). the training gloves are much better, but not even close to winning in terms if protection and fit

i'm not saying that the fighting gloves are bad (the bag gloves are lol), but they aren't comparable to winning, and they shouldn't, hence the price difference

quite honestly, there are better options than fighting in that price range (see IMF, everlast protex series)

they're not bad and they are very good looking, but there are better options for the same price (and even lower prices)

oh and ignore what the site says lol, they aren't even the same company
