    Is this not Alan's phrase???

    So Alan Kahn's Speed Bag Bible/Central phrase regarding the speed bag is...

    "Put a little rhythm in your workout"

    So after checking out this site that Fingers and Tim were talking about,

    Title Boxing Deluxe Pro Swivel For Speedballs Heavy-duty, double-thick, triple chrome plated for extra-long durability. All the speed and quality of the Pro Swivel, only in a quick-change, push-pin style. Change bag in seconds. Lightning fast for professional gym use. Sealed mechanics make for super-fast, super-quiet and super-efficient action. Includes 4 mounting screws.


    I noticed that UFC has their own speed bag, (the 9th bag down). And in the bag description, I noticed their catch phrase below....

    UFC® LEATHER SPEED BAG
    SKU: SKU8235
    UFC® Leather Speed Bag. Put some rhythm in your workout! This speed bag requires control, speed, and accuracy, which is beneficial to any sport. It features lace closure and quality leather construction for a durable bag that can really take a beating! Size: 10" Colour: Black

    "Put some rhythm in your workout!" ???????

    Hmmmmm.... wonder where they got this from, or if it is just simple coincidence?????

        The only thing is, it's the UFC.... and they are big business. It would be better to have them become aware of great minds thinking alike so they can promote Alan Kahn, The Speed Bag Bible, and the art of speed bagging a bit.
        The UFC is immensely popular. If one of their top fighters was turned on to bag past the point of the basics, it would get a lot of exposure.
        BAG ON!

          No lawsuit necessary. It's a different Kahncocktion of words. Anyway, if it is a catch phrase rip off, then imitation is a form of recognition. If it sells a few more bags for them, no harm done.

            Yeah, and Dana White seems to be a real A-hole... don't wanna mess with that guy. Alan has got the market cornered as far as speed bag instruction, really the more bags that sell, the more he benefits I hope.

                Thanks, Fingers. I appreciate that. To engage my highlander fantasy: "There can be only one". (I'll never get an opening like that again...)

                however, KHAN is the title of the leader of the Mongrol hordes. An admirable fellow, but not of my family tree.

                my name is spelled KAHN.

                (..for the record, that's the "legal" version. My fathers parents came from Europe but for some reason the family name of KOHN was changed to KAHN at Ellis Island. Neither one of them ever spoke English well enough to notice the difference.

                I'm told my Uncle ( a lawyer in NY years later...) officially changed the name to KAHN to clear the record or make it legal.

                  Don't forget the KHAN from the original star trek movies, he was a pretty formidable character as well

                      NO problem! It's a very common error. Believe me, I've been called worse.
