Guillermo Rigondeaux - Southpaw Boxing Tricks 

Glad to see MORE PEOPLE PRAISING RIGONDEAUX. SHOWS HE HAS MANY FOLLOWERS THAT PEOPLE DIDNT THINK WERE THERE

One of the best videos on Guillermo's tricks out there. As a southpaw, I may have found a solution to one of my orthodox sparring partners who likes taking the lead foot dominant position. It's in this video.

Your breakdown of "Ri-gon-doe" is the reason he's called the jackal. Very clever fighter

Good to see you back johnny

Rigondeaux's style is so technical, i love it.. great video.. the loma v rigo fight is going to be epic tactical warfare. I just think its terrible how the industry treats rigondeaux though, opponents near his weightclass have pretty much blackballed him, & apparently if he loses, they're stripping him of his belt @122 even though the fight is 2 weight classes higher

Can't wait for the Lomachenko vs Rigondeaux fight. I think Loma has a slight advantage because he's younger but it should be close.

great insight. Thank you

Very nice breakdown! Many Thanks!

Love this vídeo!!

Incredible analysis on Rigondeaux' technique. Thank you. I hope he gets healthy soon!

Please be more consistent with the uploads man. I learn a lot from you.

Great breakdown! 1 of my fav fighters and deserves more praise

Loma vs Rigo should be a decent fight. Loma will most likely win though...younger, bigger, much more active in the ring. Mechanically comparable. Doesn’t take as many dumb chances. People want to hate on Loma because of his one loss to a decent fighter in Low Blow Salido, but at the same time will ignore Rigo getting knocked down multiple times throughout his career by fighters who are a half notch above tomato cans (sure he wins the fights...but putting yourself in those situations against a great fighter like Loma won’t fly).

Awesome!! I'm learning alot

Hey Johnny, have you ever done a video how and when to use the clinch? Or whatever you want to call it: tying people up, muscling them, holding and turning them. I'm brand new to sparring and it seems like such a useful technique that doesn't really get taught in classes.

He was majestic in his prime.

Very useful techniques. Improve my game like 20%

Good video!!!

So good thanks for the breakdown

Really you are the best boxing coach I found in whole youtube dude! You provide great info always!

That was nice i wish he had clips to back it up but still very good video

Great video. Good job :)

Aye Johnny, do you have any videos of your previous amateur bouts? I would really love to see them. Thank you 🙏

i have loved dis video, actually. thx, dr Jonnie

Got any sparring videos of yourself and another fellow boxer?

This channel is amazing, cheers fellow warrior

Could you do a video for southpaws vs southpaws, because I am used to fighting against ortodox, and when I have to fight with southpaws it becomes very difficult for me... I'm sure other southpaws have the same problem Thanks!

Clip was nice first, but really sad to see there are so many ways of grabbing that should be prevented by rules. That square up thing he does when inside foot, can it be varied so that he just circle back-left? That way would be very hard for opponent to know.

It would’ve been nice if you threw in some clips of him doing this but great tips 🙏

Yo! Just a question,i have really bad stamina and because of that my endurance is crap so how do i improve endurance?

interesting video. but while some of those things might work under any circumstances. if you have enough experience. the part about him lowering his head and just waiting for an opponent while giving his back to his opponent that might work in pure boxing but it will be all but suicidal in MMA. as far as the first strategy I think this might work which is good for me because this means I would have another trick up my sleeve something that opponent might not expect. however I noticed that even you when you were doing this move yourself your lead leg was at the same position or even slightly outside your opponents lead leg despite you moving towards your left. And this is the right way to do it in my opinion because no matter what if your opponent is too far outside of you you are in almost always in disadvantageous position. and the reason why the move you showed works is because despite you moving to his inside your leg is not really inside his or at least not deep inside at the time of the actual hit. also as far as this sideways stance. there are advantages and disadvantages to it. in a pure boxing this is the way you want to stand because it gives you good mobility, range and makes you small target. but in sport that involves kicking you can get your legs kicked out from under you relatively easily this way. now as far as this stance in southpaw vs orthodox this is a great way to stand if you once again your lead leg is outside of his lead leg. because then you are far away from both his rear leg and even if he can reach you with it its easier to block. and his lead leg is useless. yours is not. and you have great mobility. also if you are both standing in this position but you are outside you are in better position to deliver punches than he is and you can deliver a devastating lead leg pendulum kick right behind his knee while he can't do the same to you even though you are both in same stance precisely because you are outside oh him. as far as the first move you shown. that might actually be a great move. but once again just because you are moving to opponent's inside that does not mean your lead leg is to his inside and you are generally outside of him during the final hit. but still done correctly it is a great move.

7:35 thank you for this one! Im using a southpaw philly shell and my opponent really loves to pressure me

Thank you master 🙏🙂

EXPERT BOXING I NEED HELP PLEASE REPLY. So I am having trouble in the gym with a tall southpaw, everytime I try to throw my right hook or overhand he seems to easily counter me with his left hook, how can I evade this counter and land my right hook/overhand.

Hey Johnny love the videos they really have helped me I am 5,6 and feel comfortable at 140 at 13% BF am I too small/short for my weight class and I should try go below that or will I be ok? Any advice/experience feedback appreciated Keep the vids up love them very informative and helpful. Amit Show less REPLY

Is there a way to make a defensive fighter become an offensive(baithim/her to you)

true said

nice one

Great

1 question Could this work as a orthodox

Would you recommend using any of these if you're orthodox v ortho? Or maybe some variation?

Hey i just subscribed to your channel and i know you are a boxing trainer but i've been training kickboxing for a while now and i started to wonder if the gym is any good. We do 2 times a week sparring with different people for up to 10 rounds and most people are with 10 oz gloves because more oz ''protects the guy with the bigger gloves not the opponent'' and it's suitable for amateur competition. It's not specific type of sparring so it basicly depends on the people's mood if it's gonna be full contact sparring or hit point sparring, wich for me atleast makes it weird because i don't know what to do and i don't realy like that mental gymnastics - either hit point sparring or full contact sparring, if it's not said what type of sparring it is it's kinda confusing for me. We do 2 times a week technique, wich is basicly practising the punches and kicks kinda like in martial arts, but we don't do any mitt training, we all do the same type of training ( people that train for alot longer and people that train for like 5 months) and i feel like every combination, punch and kicks in my head is just in full chaos or combinations that just don't make lots of sense, maybe because there is no mitt training. The trainer basicly encourages the students to train with the gear that will be used in competition matches, wich i think is a little retarded. To use that gloves / shin protectors for sparring, sometimes heavy bag and for competitions doesn't make alot of sense. 1 day a week the same type of conditioning physical training over and over. I've also watched the people that complete in matches how they train. 2 times a day, basicly the same with more heavy bag and one other workout called ''300'' wich is very hard so i've heard, because you do some things including push ups, sit ups, working the stomach for time stamps making it to 100 or so i've heard (it's not like that but i don't remember exactly what it is) the problem is, one guy was 17 and the other 21 with the 17 training for 4 years and the 21 training for like 10 or 11 years, yet they do the same exercises when they will need different things to develop and again no mitt training. there are people that are pretty good from my perspective in the gym to be honest, including the 21 year old wich is very good but i don't know if that happened because of that trainer or that training or simply the time and effort put into it played it's part. Doubting in your trainer and his training methods is EXTREMELY DEMOTIVATING so i just want to know the truth. there was other kickboxing trainer at the place i am but there was like no sparring and no conditioning with him at all, people go and die at competition in his gym and leave and he pretends to be expert at 205978209578 martial arts... with is simply BS. maybe i should switch to boxing, but i don't know if it will be much better, but i won't know untill i try. But i realy want to know if this type of training sounds good to you - unspecified 10 rounds sparring for 2 days, no mitt training, same type of physical workout, people on completely different level doing the same things, 10 oz for everything, he also likes some other things better than the hand wraps i think it was called jell something... and the technique is so good that most people don't know a single combination and it's basicly chaos in the brain/ muscle memory, trying to land single shots but forget that, that might be because i'm still not good enough. What realy makes me hesitate is the same type of training for different people, no mitts, unspecified close to 10 round sparring rounds for 2 days a week. Also there is no real ring, please i need to hear your opinion, i hope i'm the dumb one here because if i'm not i may have to switch to hole different sport.

Who you picking loma or rigo ?

Do dmytri pirog boxing tricks.

Nice 👍

Could these tactics work with orthodox?

Where is Johnny at

Can you do one about ggg

Bad ass.

Is this the cuban boxing system? Both Rigo and Luis ortiz move to the left into the power hand of the orthodox fighter. Southpaw counterstrikers who don't like to jab.

why can’t this work for the orthodox stance as well ?

i like mayweather and rigondeaux for the technical part but honestly i prefer boxer who go at war like ggg

I saw this year's ago and coaches often don't seem to realize the angles and defense a south paw can see if they are crafty enough. Btw your pronunciation of his name hurts my ears bro. Great vid tho

are you a Filipino

Walking into a right hook?

A lot of you guys talking trash in the comments need a dose of humility you never know what this life will give you. You can learn from anyone from the CEO of a fortune 500 company to a so-called bum who has been in the streets 30+ years; all you are showing is your own insecurity when you’re commenting and putting your nose up in the air looking down on someone you don’t even know.

loma must have watched your video koz he checked all the rigo moves. why did you give it away ...

Aye Wats the craic then you c

The first thing isnt useable for anyone, you ll get battered getting on the inside

I am monfughion

He doesn't just bend, he squats. Your posture is horrible. Please don't get in a real fight. You will get hurt against the wrong guy.

I think the way to fight this guy is you jump on top of him. Riding him like a horse. I am sure he never see that coming
