LAS VEGAS–Renowned trainer Roger Mayweather has just earned a few important believers in his training program, following his initial stint on the mitts with Rey ‘Boom Boom’ Bautista here.
“Rogers way of training is different in so far as mitt-work is concerned, which is based on speed, eye and hand coordination and continues combinations, with upper body and head movement,” said Las Vegas-based Anthony Martin, who was instrumental in arranging the training of Bautista at the Mayweather Gym.
“I can assure you it is an exhausting routine, as Boom-Boom has already experienced. This is a great way to condition the body,” added Martine, who also worked the mitt with WBO Oriental bantam champ Michael Domingo.
Bautista and Domingo will start sparring at the Mayweather gym on Monday, said Martin.
Bautista will battle Mexican Heriberto Ruiz on November 22 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
