    I always wondered about the training with headgear, it seems to me it would mess up your head movement and effect your guard being too open....we used to be pretty punchy after sparring tho

    don't beat yourself up. Just knock back a couple of your King Cobra's tonight and work hard tommorow.

    6'
    She's the midget here,we dont have anything else smaller then 6'3"
    The girl she was fighting was 5'7" 5''8"
    I was joking about it leading up to the fight,we got nothing but brutes in here
    She got caught with the shot because had her head lateral,no roll,no nothing
    This fight ended the way it did,because of two things,a trainer who missed something incredibly crucial to the fight,and a ref who couldnt find his a$$ two out of 3 times if you handed him a map

    So you fix it now how? Readjust the headgear or something? Wear different headgear? I like my top ten because it allows good peripheral vision but I've never had to look down at a sparring partner either!

    I have this idea to make headgear with a unique design specialized so to maximize vision and be light in weight. The padding is thin and not intended to absorb the impact of blows like the heavily padded headgear. The forehead is covered so that it runs over the crown of the head since thats the most salient part of the head (think buddy mcgirt). the padding doesnt come all the way down to the brow because if have your chin down your eyes must therefore be looking upward. If there's padding up there you won't see anything. the next feature is two traingular shaped paddings that runs up along the cheeks and srrounds the nose so that the nose sits between the two pads. its similar to the headgear with the cheek protection but instead of the pads coming horizontally across the face they come up from under so that you can have periperhal vision. If the pads come from the side you take that away. I have a nice nose and its not broken but I was always scared of breaking it. helped my defense alot being that way. But another reason for having that feature is that it takes forever to heal a broken nose which is absolutely counter productive. So its important that headgear should stop it. Unfortunately not many do and the ones that do rob you of a genuine fighting experience.

    visualizing it all together it should look like typcial headgear but much thinner, with the face area opened up more so as to see more with your peripheral vision. Ive had this idea for a long time and I guess its going to stay that way because it requires some initiative to actually make. Ive never had too much of that.

    Better late than never Thomas - I'm not sure how to start getting prototypes of this sort of thing made up - but a bit of googling might be able to tell you I love google - can find almost anything Why not give it a go or just patent your idea so if someone decides to use it they have to pay you a nice little commission

    That's a neat idea Thomas, I do hope you persue it. Right now I figure I'm much better off without headgear, as I can actually see the punches coming. Today's headgear reminds me of the blinders that they put on horses. There's probably more brain damage on account of getting hit while wearing headgear and the aftermath of bad habits of training with it than would be the case training without it. The extra weight especially after it soaks in some sweat probably makes the body react in a bad way as it's unnatural.
