    They are fresh! I want to get a pair But here are two things im thinking about

    1.Are they a fight shoe or are they a fight and training shoe?
    2. Do they have good support or are they just like the other nike shoes that have no support and feel like a wrestling shoe?

    the RJJ Jordans look better, but these are nice

    im always wary of nike shoes, i have bad arches and one the whole nike shoes offer little support. More made for looks rather than performance IMO

    These are suppose to be light as feather while the roy jones shoes feel more like a construction boot than a boxing shoe

    The Jones are awful if you want to move. They're really heavy and really wide soled.

    If you want to be able to move and pivot; be light on your feet (that's a huge deal for me because of my style); they're not the best. If you're more an aggressive, come forward, not so much movement kind of style, where you plant your feet and get into it, they're better for you. Ever notice how guys like Rocky Juarez, guys with that kind of style, seem to wear the Jones'?

    haha, these shoes look like friggen gum boots. to be honest, im pretty disappointed with these.

    im about to buy a pair of white asics gel assault wrestling shoes, does anyone around here rate them at all? they seem pretty popular (not to mention bloody stylish)

    How come boxing shoes and wrestling shoes lack midsole support?
