Leper,

Those gloves suck and you can't possibly teach yourself to box. Everyone thinks they can but they can't. Impossible.

Spend a good $40 on www.titleboxing.com. Get some decent training gloves. Those shitbags you got for what, 85cents, might be ok to pound away on a bag, but not much more than that.

But.. great to see you want to box, It's great fun and a damn good way to stay in shape. Just make sure you do it right...proper supervision and decent gear.

Luck, bro.
