4 Styles of Boxing Guards

What I like about Shane's videos is that he gets straight to the point ... no corny intro, no unfunny comedic remarks and laughter in between, no annoying commercial. Just no-nonsense .... imagine if he had ALL of those things included, which is the case with some KZbinrs, then there's now way that I would watch all his videos.

1.Philly Shell 2. Peekaboo stance 3. Cross Guard 4. Long and High That's what I know.

[@epic8961]

3rd one is definitely not the cross guard, the cross guard is looks more similar to the philly shell

[@MrSirFluffy]

I forget the name of the boxer, but he had a weird stance. He had a decent career and he laid right fore arm on his left forearm and pointed his left elbow out. Almost like he was going to plow through your guard/offense with his elbow. He had success because it was such a rare stance but it made his jab awkward and his right hand less powerful.

[@drizzy9126]

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Thanks guys so much for completing the moves during explanation! Coach PJs head for example goes back after the punch for Coach Shane even though the blow is not in real time speed. It demonstrates the effectiveness of a punch thrown and also what happens on the defensive end should an opponent drop his/her guard and leaves him/herself open. This is a channel worth watching and I do these drills. Lots of fun

[@JGato-ii6ky]

2:16 that is Mexican style kinda in a way. It was developed in Mexico and is used by J M Marquez finito lopez and Salvador Sanchez its similar to the Phili shell only the lead hand is loos and wondering fighters using this still have to learn how to develop power with the left and how to instantly turn it into a hook an upper or a jab this's were the famous left hook developed because of how fuedly any wondering hand would turn into a hook. I know most people like to think Mexican style is just moving forward with no de but true Mexican style keeps his opponents preoccupied with the left as he gathers points and then hurts you with that straight right. A good example of perfect uses of this style look at barrera vs prince nassim, eric Morales vs Pacquiao 1. Both fighters outsmarted and out punched their opponents with the lead hand and would force their opponents to choose getting tapped with the left or getting hurt with a straight

My preferred guard style: Modified Philly with low/extended lead hand. I use it to to keep something in someone's face at all times, easy guard testing, fast up jabs, and good energy conservation. Only down side is the lack of defense, but if you've got good head movement, it works. At least for me that is :P

The philly shell is very hard to use if you’re shorter than your opponent. You will most likely get tagged with the right bc the shoulder roll is probably the hardest to master

Now days boxers like Spence and Crawford use all of those stances in certain points in their fights. its a amazing thing to see.

[@zekeodima3708]

The only thing u guys left off about the philly shell or grand rapids roll is.... Your right hand has to cover two spots (orthodox). The right side of the face but it also has to go to the front of the face/chin to party and block jabs and potentially other shots (With an open palm facing the opponant). If u leave your right hand on the right side of the face u will eventually get caught by easily blocked punches. That's all great video 🔥🔥🔥

[@ChrisPBacon1434]

how do you block punches with the Mexican style guard? With the lead hand extended, I imagine it would be hard to bring it back and cover the left side of the head faster than the punch can reach your head. Do you just use it like the Philly shell?

[@fighttips]

Often times you’ll see fighters use a long guard, extending their arm out and keeping the elbow high, tucking their chin and hiding behind that shoulder/arm.

It isn't for people who study boxing. It was extraordinary. In fact, I think Tyson is the only fighter that I can think of who almost NEVER improvised in the ring. Cus and Rooney had given him the keys and formula for all of the actions and reactions of opponents that he didn't have to deviate. His training footwork and movement looks EXACTLY like his fight footage. Amazing.

Anyone who trains Peekaboo style - Respect for the strength of your legs. Tried it a few times, legs the next day hurt like hell.

[@jamescoleman5705]

Where the peek a boo style had a con at is it put more strain on the ribs or hips versues the legs so if your using the peek a boo style versues some one who is hard to overwhelm being aggressive your just tiring your ribs and legs out with more movement than youll need

[@shadowta1772]

Shane in the Phylli shell, the opponent can do an over punch and hooks where your shoulder cant protect you from the punch, am i right?

[@shogoracing4294]

ShadowTA That’s generally correct though that’s why other elements such as slipping and footwork come into place. For example, Mayweather (orthodox stance) would occasionally block a left hook with his right hand whereas for right hooks he would duck or slip on the outside before adjusting to his next move. A good example of him having made a fighter miss overhands was the fight versus Marcos “El Chino” Maidana. For more straights and hooks you could check out the Canelo fight or nearly any other.

[@lapereyra16]

A lot of boxers dont recommend mayweather’s guard because is hard and risky. So better start whit a regular and ortodox guard for your safety

[@JanCzu66]

Thx! Really needed it.

[@justice5897]

Ryu from street fighter has the Philly shell stance

[@Kingarthurjohn]

Can you do a video on things from kickboxing,boxing and must Thai that don’t work or not work as effectively in a street fight or MMA

[@rvrrb]

When you juve and jive you drop your hands. When you set up you raise your hands. Ali would hold his lead hand down so he could slap the jaw or straight jab. The other hand protects the jaw. George foreman used a cross arm block so he could wade into his opponent and throw straight power shots. When in a fight a fighter has to have one hand in front of his mouth at all times. A punch in the mouth is a knock out.
