Professional cut man shows how to MMA, Kickboxing, and Amateur Boxing Hand Wrap | In-Depth Explanation of the how, why, and rule sets you need to be aware of in order to wrap a fighter's hands for a fight.
I've been wrapping and cornering for over a decade. I'm always looking for better ways. This by far is my favorite tutorial. Beautiful and effrctive wrap.
@@richie_completefightercare I’ve only found your Channel today and found every video amazingly informative, I’m only a Fan of Boxing and MMA but it’s still great to know How and Why a Corner does things, this video I found was brilliant, although I’ve seen people wrapping hands before, I’ve never watched it from Start to Finish and being explained How and Why they do it? Thanks for making the other videos too, I found them all brilliant! 👌👏👏🫡
This was one ☝️ f the best videos on Handwrapping I’ve seen Question, I’ve noticed in the UK coaches use the finger tape from the top and in the US they pull from underneath? I feel from underneath it pulls the knuckle padding back from the fist. I suppose it’s up to fighter Again, amazing video mate
Hello Sir! Very good video! I just have some things to say from my personal point of view. If you x cross the pattern and go directly under the thumb, you loose stability in the wrist! After an x cross I always go around the wrist again. The knucklepad I always measure from the fighter who gets wrapped, in my opinion it makes no sense to use my anatomy if the fighter has a complete different than my own! If you adjust the knucklepad it is maybe also a problem with the main stability and comfort. In the most pro fight it is just allowed to use just 1 roll of tape for each hand! Mixing is not allowed in many countries. I also use long stripes to protect the wrist by itself. But this is one of the best explanation video about handwrapping ever! Big respect
Please make a video about the procedure in choosing the right pair of gloves for a heavyweight championship boxing match. Also show the max warm up and stretching and shadow boxing a fighter does before getting in the ring! Great Video! Ps: maybe you can also show how to apply oil or Greece to a fighter, even though it’s illegal a lot of guys I boxed would use warming oil in the dressing room to help break a sweat before going out, it’s kind of like hot baby oil about an hour before the fight and then sweat enough where it could not be seen by ring walk time... Great Stuff
good stuff! i had no idea about how it all will be checked by the organisation. i like the behind the scenes things you never see on tv. How long does a wrap take when you don't have to film and explain every step? thanks for the videos. have a good week!
Great video. I love the new stuff but this is golden. Ive been wrapping hands for a few grass roots boxing & mma shows and this is a big help i.e. explaining why you should do the cross at the back of the hand instead of just doing it. Is this the exact same as how you do wraps for MMA or do you use less around the thumb?
Thanks for making the video mate. After just under 12 months as a cutman/hand wrapper I always come back to this video if I need a refresher. Would be great to work alongside you one day 🤞
@@richie_completefightercare I’m based in Brisbane. Started working the local shows here last year with Pete Hickmott and Peter Allen. Absolutely love it as well.
I’m back to this video. I’ve been wrapping my hands with this gear for a while now by myself. I got a good deal on a bulk order of tape and gauze. I’m running out now. Just wondering where u got your ufc tape from. I would like to try it out
G'day mate, I'm in Australia too and you are correct, most rule sets just state that there is to be no build-up of tape on the knuckles, so you could tape right up to them. The main reason for staying back one inch is to eliminate any chance of an argument. the last thing you want to be doing is arguing rule sets with the opposing corner and the commission as your fighter sits in the chair. Most rule sets call for 1 (one) inch back from the striking area (knuckles). But again, depending on the rule set and the commission you might even be allowed to tape the knuckles.
@@richie_completefightercare i also must say i found this video is very informative and as a boxer myself i can use this handwrap myself BTW I will share this fantastic handwrapping tutorial
How many meters of gauze (including knucklepads) and tape do you use per hand? We‘re about to start a private event and we wanna know how much material we need. Best video!
If ur using standard 5cm x 10m gauze then you would use nearly all of it for an MMA wrap including your knuckle pad made from the gauze. For boxing you would need about a roll and a half. And for tape you would usually get about 3 or 4 hands wrapped with it. Empire Pro are a good brand for all the kit for wrapping hands I recommend looking at them
Awesome… now cau do that wrap to where the fighter can reuse it for boxing I think they start wrapping the hand with the tape up side down so when they start with the guages it sticks to the tape and when it’s cut off at the wrist it won’t unravel. Not sure on all that tho. 🙏
