i have no place to hang any bag. I am muay thai fighter and am looking for something that can take a strong kick. at this point im thinking Century BOB XL, Century VS.1 or possibly even a stand for a heavy bag, anybody have any recommendations?

+icybeer Get a bag stand Everlast has them or dicks sporting goods should carry them. I say go with the heavy bag over bob. Its meant for learning to toughing your fist and generating your power in your kicks and punches. Also notice you can to low kicks on the BOB dummy. Bruce Lee always said that in real life your opponent will always be moving so always move around BOB or the Bag never stay in one place!!!!! Any questions respond here i've been doing this for 17 years. Black belt in Ishinruy and red belt in TKD.

I'm no professional by any stretch, but if you plan on purchasing a heavy bag, my advice/opinion is that, if you choose not to use gloves/hand wraps, and you have the money for it, it cost's a bit extra but you may want to invest in a leather heavy bag like he has, as opposed to a denim bag. Denim bags without gloves feels like punching sandpaper xD
-
and holy crap you hit that heavy bag hard with your bare fists lol
-
use gloves when punching if you don like how it feels
-
I guess I am going to take advantage of the heavy bag at school then. The only thing is the kicking part. I am not allowed to and that limits my training greatly. However, I will be able to perfect my punching techniques then.

And ur right about it not feeling good to the skin it will peal it off had it happen to me several times
-
I agree, i wish i had a heavy bag instead of my bob but i have no where to hang it
