sometimes I go to the west side club (gay bath house in manhattan) with gloves & jocks & mouth guards, most of them spread on my cot, door open, me gloved up & in boots & black leather motorcycle jacket, mouth guard in mouth, waiting to see who's brave enough to come in. Hit the jackpot not too long ago - this hot dark-haired lean guy, younger than me, looked at my 6 oz Everlasts (the last 6 oz pro ones Everlast ever made, I believe), put them on, and shot a nice one-two at my eye and my cheek. I was wearing ufc-style gloves, shot him two back - lip and eye. We alternated throwing two punches apiece (all face punches) until we called an end to it - which I needed to do because I was lumping up pretty radically (my profile pic shows you what I looked like) and, like, I had a life I had to return to. Lumps & shiner went away in a couple days, and we left two happy tomcats. That boy couldn't BELIEVE he'd met someone who wanted to do that with him!

If you're in nyc, and interested, maybe we get something similar going.
