AboutJackson Rose Expertise I can answer any questions related to boxing and training. I can help anyone prepare for professional or amateur bouts. My trainer/boss of 24 years is in the Golden Gloves Hall of Fame and trained the heavyweight champion of the world. Holyfield, Roy Jones Jr., Bernard Taylor, Billy Bridges, Frankie Randall just to name a few of the boxers who have passed thru the Southerns and/or trained at our gym.
Experience I have been in the sport of boxing since 1984. I started as a boxer and advanced quickly. I was lucky enough to have some of the best sparring in the country with 3 top ten pros in my very gym. I am fortunate enough to live near one of the better boxing programs in the country. In the mid 90's I became a trainer for Golden Gloves. I train amateur and pro fighters. I have worked in many corners at USA and Golden Glove tournaments. My friend, boss and coach is the former President of Golden Gloves. I am also one of the trainers and cornermen for a promising professional heavyweight.
Organizations I am a certified Golden Gloves/USA Boxing Coach. I am also a licensed Second for pro bouts.
Question In a national boxing tournament like golden gloves could I use my cleto reyes boxing gloves or would I have to wear a certain type. Thanks
Answer Brendon,
In the National Golden Gloves, you have to wear the gloves provided by the tournament. They are usually provided by whoever gets the sponsorship for that year. Red and blue gloves to match the corners assigned, 10 and 12oz for respective weight divisions.
