    I think it was Reg Gutteridge who mentioned his bag work in a public workout, and how awesome it was, and the dents in the bag at the end.


    Always the cynic Reg figured it was worked and when the gym cleared he put on a glove and punched the bag himself. He said he damn near broke his hand and the bag did not move an inch!!!

    Are you perhaps thinking of Norman Mailer? He also observed Foreman putting a dent in a heavybag.

    Yes, I reckon your recollection makes much more sense.

    Foreman's power is from the forearm
