Equipment to Have Ready in a Boxing Corner

Video Transcript

"In properly working your boxer's corner, the biggest thing to do is to have your equipment ready. Today we're going to be talking about that such equipment. What I like to do is have at least two towels: a short one for wiping your boxer's face; we're going to have an extra large one for actually draping over your boxer as he sits down. He's already worked up a sweat, so we want to keep him warm. You should make sure you have plenty of latex gloves. Also in your tote, you want to make sure you have your ice packs, some Vaseline to put on your boxer, you can have sponges. We also like to have a spray bottle for giving that blast of cold onto your boxer. It's going to cool him down quicker if it's in a fine mist. Make sure you have plenty of water for your boxer to drink in between rounds. In your corner man's jacket is a good place to keep your scissors. You may not have a need for them, but at the moment you need them you need them, so it's good to have them with you. Make sure you're going to have some cotton balls. You can also have some Q-tips, and most importantly, have a good roll of tape with you, and have everything organized so that when he comes down and sits down, you're able to work that boxer."
