I'm the guy who switches Stances all over the place for no good reason. I'm like hell yeah check this out and work myself into a corner with bad ring craft.
@@BN-xu5bzI use the same principle so I believe he means that you just use your lead foot to stay on the outside of your opponents lead foot and match it meaning keeping an open stance where both fighters have toes almost touching if in the pocket so one southpaw one orthodox or vic versa
Corey, you should start a podcast with Luke Thomas, he is thinking of starting a show to talk about technique, strategies, and the current MMA meta. He’s looking for a podcast cohost who is currently fighting and ngl, I think you two would be a perfect fit! Could be a great opportunity to grow your channel and show the MMA diehards the inside scoop of the more integral elements of the fight game
How I learned to strike from both stances lmao; 1. Recorded individual techniques I use regularly in my normal stance. 2. Recorded the counterparts of those techniques in the opposite stance. 3. Watched both (slowed or frame by frame if needed) and made little adjustments until every technique i use is just as effective as its opposite stance counterpart.
Ive learned Judo standing right foot in front and then went to mma/kickboksing where i learned to stand with my left foot in front. It really helped me to be able to switch mid sparring pretty easy.
3:10 How did you train with an injured arm? Cause I had a surgery on my lead arm because of the same reason and the doctors told me that I need to wait 6 months until I cab start kickboxing again
Chingiz Allazov is the only guy that I think switch stances better than Corey or even Adesanya...that man is the best stiker on the planet for a reason ...
I personally believe that not being able to use both stances effectively is a huge disadvantage. I started drilling both sides since I started and I think it allows me to be much more versatile. Granted I'm just 2y in, so still quite a beginner haha.
When I first start training Muay Thai I played around with switching stances and I’d find that I could hit my south paw jab on certain people easier at times but I haven’t mastered it yet .
I just started training but I really liked your video game reference because it actually helped me understand Another relevant example is in ufc 5 (the video game) when you switch stances the buttons you need to hit to throw strikes are reversed to realistically resemble your stance switch this can slightly change. Gameplay but It’s not a giant change but it’s still there. (Idk if my explanation was good but boot up any ufc game and try it out and you will understand.) anyways I already had that knowledge but never really thought much about it but as soon as you started using the games as an example for real life combat my nerdy ass instantly understood the concept better so thank you !
All the coaches in boxing that ive been with, yells at me to STOP SWITCHING STANCES while i am good at both, ..., i dont realy listen to them, am in the wrong ?
And when they do they usually switch and fight large periods of the fight in one or the other, like say 70% ortho 30% southpaw. You still really don’t see much of that active switching back and forth all fight like we get in mma.
YESSS ANOTHER VIDEO watching you fight has definitely improved my footwork with switching stances and the importance of being able to the advantages you get are insane over your opponent if they can’t do it as well
Thx for the vid coach! I converted to mma from karate so what i did was I stole Justin scoggins template. Karate as a southpaw, more traditional kickboxing from ortho. Im adding everything you said in this video to my style tho 👊
can you please provide a video on the closed and open stance and give what your specific targets/techniques are that you look for in each? I have a better understanding of the open stance. It just seems a little bit more simple as to what techniques are available. though the close stance seems relatively more vague to me.
