UNDERSTANDING BOXING RHYTHM (Boxing Study) 

Wow I never realized boxing is like the game chess. I'm not much of a boxing fan because I didn't know there was such a deep strategy to it. I'm going to enjoy watching boxing now with all my brother's.

I think the free flowing rhythm is the best one. You’re more relaxed and the less tension, the better of a fighter you are.

People often use the phrase “up the tempo”. But, if we are adhering to musical analogy, really the tempo stays constant but the “subdivisions” change. You maintain a steady fundamental pulse but the density of notes or movements change. Breaking rhythm can still be in tempo, but you attack on an upbeat instead of a downbeat or also on a swung/triplet beat instead of straight beat. A true tempo change is more unnatural for us esp without a constant pulse. Gradually ramping up to a sprint from a walk is an example of a natural tempo change.

Excellent analysis my man. Keep going.

Both finding and understanding rhythm is something that I had a hard time grasping from my trainers, and after watching your video I feel like my world has gone from B&W to color.....in a training sense. Great video! Keep up the amazing work, Liked, Subscribed 🙌🙏🥊

This was so helpful. I really liked this video. I knew of rhythm in boxing, but not to this extent. Really good video. Keep up the good work.

Excellent video! Nice voice to listen to. But if I just might give you 1 thing I disliked: when you talked about a paryicular fighter, you should have also said what colour of shorts he is wearing. For a starter boxer like me that doesn't know that much about boxers it would have been more easy to ubderstand who you mean. But a great video bro!

linares rhythm is goated is love to see a breakdown on usyks rhythm against anthony joshua that was death by 1000 hand feints, foot feints, probes and headmovement

Pac vs Algieri if you sit to long on your rhythm let him read it then reset then break the rhythm

This was probably one of most educational videos related to boxing I have ever seen . Great breakdown of the clips and explaining what was happening .

You have a new follower , I never really been into boxing but lately I’ve wanted to learn fundamentally why it is such a top tier sport and martial art to learn and even just watch so , if you also have other fights that I should just watch for the sake of watching you know great fighters, great moments of two stories colliding, power , speed, athleticism, intelligence, I would love to see intelligence vs intelligence too that would be nice

Great video mate, really informative for those of us who are still learning about boxing. For all those who liked this video, thank this Aussie bloke! Thanks from Sydney here champ.

After establishing rhythm throw punches on the off beat or syncopated beats of your rhythm. And for defense you learn your opponents rhythm and then use head movement or step side or out on their on beats. My rhythm then off beats, their rhythm defensive moves on beats. I fucking love boxing such a pure and beautiful clash of art science and physics.

Awesome breakdown sir! One Team 👊😎

Beautiful video and explanation brother

Incredible this is literally one of the highest levels of Combat

Really appreciate your work

NICE ONE

Ur all nuts. It’s the simple fact that you got caught. Everyone looks fluid to me. MMARUSS.

Also you should consider doing another video like this including Emmanuel Burton . Just see how he faced Mayweather when they fought.

I’m going to try and find my rhythm better and work from it, I don’t have very good reflexes so I often react slowly . So I hope slowing down and finding a rhythm helps.

Jorge linares, one of my favourite boxers. He is a very skilled fighter, never got the attetion he deserved

Excellent video. This will help me in my sparring strategy

I never knew about alot of these things and I watch alot of boxing

I need great boxing coach!

Do consider that your video of crawford is showing him fight a man who tore his achilles early in the fight. I like your video. And your points are on point. But... Its hard to not look calm and in control when your opponent should be in the hospital and is instead fighting on one leg.

rhythm is still the only concept in boxing that i don't understand

Next level content wow

Great vid

1:58 - the punch not thrown by Bud. Levels.

Thank you brother, is this the same principle as Bruce leees perfect self expression?

Great video

Nice video.. helped. thanks

Feints also breaks you opennent pace and lets you read his game

Great stuff! Earned a Sub!

I’m surprised you made this video and didn’t show Mayweather Jr at all, the one guy who uses the least amount of rhythm out of everyone which is why he was so unpredictable and could adapt to anyone.

would floyd mayweather's rhythm be the same as crawford or is mayweather a fighter that can do any type of rhythm

Can anyone dumb it down,,,The rhythm and timing,, So a complete novice like me can understand and practically start to using them basics please?

I heard that you’re supposed to learn how to fight with and without rhythm is that true? For the rhythm part, what if you never had any rhythm of any type? Like is there a video or some guide I could go to on how to get rhythm first and then how to maintain it for as long as I want whether it’s dancing, music, boxing, in bed, etc.? Like I have no understanding of what rhythm is in music, I'm not musically literate, not a dancer either, and I'm no musician as in idk how to play an instrument so you can imagine how lost confused I am in trying to figure out what rhythm is in boxing and other stuff. I haven't boxed before either but I want to be able to get and maintain rhythm overall in so many things so that once I do try boxing, I won't be so lost both in the sport and other things. And oh dear what more when it comes to learning how to fight WITHOUT rhythm this time?

so, what if (say) fighterA lands 10 good clean punches in the first 2 mins then, fighterB lands two very hard blows in the final minute, that stagger fighterA. if fighter A is wobbled, how does his earlier superior spell count in comparison to his being rocked by two massive punches? is it who ends the strongest who wins the round, or who lands the biggest/most punches that wins it? also, do judges keep a track of the balance of the round in their heads, or do they use some kind of real time scoring device to help them keep track as the round is playing out? (eg: push button electronic device ?)

How does rhythm & timing always win? Pacquiao beat him 3 out of 4 fights. The fight he got knocked out was because Pacquiao gave up his rhythm and Marquez got a lucky punch in. You don’t even know what you’re talking about.

What is a rythm in boxing I still don’t get it

Isn’t a coincidence how most “rhythm” fighters are southpaw?

Im sorry im still dont understand it

Steal video

Terence Crawford mayb throw more punches off his rhythm, but as u can see very very clearly in the clip provided, Gamboa can easily make him miss, because he is easy to time, and make him pay by getting well inside and landing straight punches between the wide guard. and also since Gamboa has timed him, he's able to exit on an angle easily since Crawford is not worried about anything but landing offensive blows. he adjusts later as OLD TINY Gamboa slows down. But this is a poor example of rhythm being effective at anything besides looking good to the judges

Khan was able to beat Crawford to the punch when he relaxed becasue even in a relaxed state Khan was 2 times faster and more accurate than Crawford. Crawford is overrated and it should be noted that Khan gave up in this fight. He proved that Crawfords storied power was not really all that.

anyone ever watch that guy Barry Robinson who keep's pushing the narrative of how bad "rhythm stepping" is? which he even made up the word himself bc most know it as Pendulum stepping. he finds these videos where someone get's hit while doing it. but i mean people get hit while moving right, does that mean u should never move right? boxing has so much to do with rhythm if not everything & the pendulum step is such a fundamental technique by all boxers. it helps u stay on your toes, helps your explosiveness, helps your movements. all i'm saying is it's funny how some people buy into that guys preachings but dismiss what most top boxers do as if they don't know something that he does.

Prince nassem has a good rhythm

Hi are you still making videos?

Nice video bro! What would ve mayweather's rythm?
