Rossy's Far East training style is far out
When it comes to training, fighters have not been too creative. It's your basic heavybag, speedbag and sparring. Some guys still chop wood and toss around a medicine ball. Not so for Patchogue's Derric Rossy, who fights former WBO heavyweight champ Ray Mercer in Macau, China on Jan. 26. To prepare, Rossy spent two months training with monks at the Shaolin temple in Macau. His routine consisted of running in the mountains with rocks tied to his waist and ankles, and, get this, to toughen the hands, the monks inserted a layer of crushed glass between his gloves and hands wraps while hitting the heavybag. And don't expect the traditional steak and eggs pre-fight meal. Rossy lost 25 pounds on a diet of rice, chicken and fish. -- CASSIDY
