Quick boxing tips

Re: Quick boxing tips

All people have to do is keep it simple.

Always keep your hands UP. In boxing, you always keep your HANDS UP. You don't keep your hands up, you take a risk of getting knocked out.

Guys who fight in the inside need to use the bob and weaves and lean, side to side, backwards to avoid punches. When approaching, keep your hands up. It's better to take a shot to the body, then a clean shot to the face.

Another thing use your JAB to set up EVERYTHING. Anyone who trains in boxing knows the jab is the foundation.

Practice different combos, combos that involve hitting the head and body.

It's always good to mix it up, whether an outside fighter or inside. By doing that, the other person will have to watch both their head and body, if you just throw constantly to the head and never to the body, they will block it all day.

Inside guys need to learn to use the ring to their advantage and trap a guy into a corner or against the ropes.

If a guy is a much stronger puncher than you, don't ever get into a match of going all out and throwing punches. This is a no no, you back the hell out.

Outside guys need to keep the guys who fight on the inside OUT. Use that jab, keep jabbing at the head. Or do a jab, jab, cross.

For those that box, this is basic knowledge.

Re: Quick boxing tips

Here is a video showing you a few thing in the short amount of time I was allotted.

1. Short combo with head blocking after
2. push off with a beautiful jab after the push

If you look at the video I have maybe 8 clean shots versus his 2 or 3(body shots) and that's in about 16 seconds . After a few rounds of this he would be kissing the canvas lol
