This not only an awesome guide to boxing its also an awesome guide on how to teach people. Phenomenal level and detail of advice only available from a lifetime of experience. Thanks
I couldn't agree more. I do Muay Thai rather than boxing but the concept is the same - learn every detail of the movement slowly, then apply. Good technique goes a long way
@@marlo1570That's not what Ngannou tried against Joshua lmao. You can't tell the difference. Ngannou leaped forward, all his weight on the front foot, half ass jab and didn't either rotate or tried to. He just leaped forward, threw an awful jab, didn't pullback the shoulder with the corkscrew motion to cover himself, and got countered with a right overhand.
This is such a great video , since I learned the soviet footwork and the relaxed knee it has been so amazing because now it is harder for my opponent to hit me! ❤
I'm interested in this as well, got a lot of southpaw friends and would love to train them in some of this along with that pendulum step so they can take advantage of their big reach
I think so, the Cuban school is influenced by and similar to the Soviet style, because of the close relations of the two nations during the Cold war era. and there are high number of southpaws from Cuba
Thanks a lot ! This is very useful . I am an italian boxer , but my new trainer is from albania and grew up with sovietic boxing style. If u are used to the classic european boxing , at the beginning it seems quite awkward but once you start practicing it's very effective. Especcialy in Italy you surprise a lot your opponent , and also feel safer putting your weight on the back leg. Your way of teaching is very clear💪
Cause he was a shorty Many martial artists try to fight in weights lower than what they should be Tyson couldn't do it if he was a 6'4 man or if he was a cruiserweight like many people of his height But he was a 5'10 among people being 6'4 They punch higher than a man of tyson's height would So it was way easier to go under their punches Unlike many in our gym , i despite my long reach rather fight people bigger or taller than myself , i like slipping a lot but people my height always hit right in my face , i still slip but it's harder to slip under a 5'10 guy's punch hitting your chin than some 6,4 guy throwing a jab and straight to your forehead
Hi, thank you for the great video! I'm interested in the boxing camp you talk about at the end of the video, where I can I find more information, please? The website seems to be down.
Ryan has been too 1 dimensional. I would be very surprised if he actually improved in a short amount of time. His fights I studied before the tank fight (which got me back to watching boxing) had me thinking he left himself open way too much and would get himself knocked out! And just as I feared, tank knocked him down. I could tell you, if it was loma vs Ryan garcia instead kf haney. Loma would've murdered Ryan for the way Ryan leaves himself open too much. And I know loma won that fight vs haney. It's not a hard to see Ryan has been very one dimensional and lacked discipline for a very long time.
I think he's saying you clench right before the jab lands, then keep it clenched through the end. If you stay loose, your arm will swing outwards on the slip. Makes sense if you think about it because we're generally taught that your body/movement is too tight if you keep your fists clenched while in your stance before throwing a punch, but in this case, you WANT your body to be tight since you're in the close distance.
@@SiphusI was confused about this as well but what you're saying makes sense. He was saying how the jab-slip-liver shot is one action, not separate actions. So once you clench for the jab you stay clenched until the whole action is over
I'm glad I found this channel. I think the way this trainer conducts training and how much detail he pays attention to is great. He solved many of my mistakes and doubts. He puts everything into a logical whole. Many trainers teach mindless combination work on targets.
