Alexey Frolov says punches are too fast to react to with a slip and instead slips should be used pre-emptively to make the head an evasive target and close the distance. Any thoughts?
Speaking of Alexi Frolov, I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding why after throwing the Anchor punch/ Soviet jab why it is necessary to perform a jump when executing the right cross and not simply perform the right cross without the jump which I think would be more efficient. The only logical conclusion I can draw is that after throwing the anchor punch/ Soviet jab the feet are in such an awkward position that it requires a jump to be able to execute the cross properly. Can Andrii or anyone else provide some insights? Any constructive feedback is greatly appreciated!
@@nomad4699try to be arhythmic while preemptively using head movement. if youre constantly moving and slipping like a metronome, your patterns will be easily read and thus easily timed. switch up the rhythm of your head movement, keep your guard up so you do not take damage if opponent times you, and constantly move your feet as well. you feet will allow you to move your opponent which makes their feet out of position and that does two things, not allowing them to throw their punches correctly if they bite to early, and throw them off time due to having to set their feet to correctly throw their punches. which allows your head movement to be more effective
I used to train with a former Soviet boxer trainer for a while. He used to tell me that I am tall enough so I don't need to slip, but is enough for me to either step back or aside and keep my left hand forward always. He also told me that in the Soviet school, it is not recommended to throw more than 2, at most 3 consecutive punches from the same hand (if you are well trained), so after 2 punches from left hand, then the next should be right hand. Nice video, keep making some more practice videos (like show how to defend/dodge) then film yourself from our pov and we have to dodge your punches
I have to lead the training tomorrow so I'm going through a lot of your videos to get good drills and be able to explain stuff! you're the best, man! 💪
ty i went to my first boxing gym bro and they had me sparring in the first week and tought me no defence going up against a guy who had been boxing his whole life
Good video brother, I want to ask if I can find out your contacts? I would like to talk about boxing and not only if you don't mind, there are many questions that I would really like to get an answer to.
