A. I. A year late but meh. That usually happens when you are doing any sport or working out using shoes and socks, the blood flow was kinda jammed and fuck your leg up. Used to get that after basketball training

[@mulimotola44]

It's amazing how you tackle the exact problems I have with my fighting techniques... every video is on point! I'm gonna use these tips during practice, thanks!

[@scottmerric2180]

I appreciate your direct style of explanation, without over-explaining. Thank you sir.

[@hassansattar1648]

Pls make a video on how to improve your reaction time, i think it would a crazy ability to be able to react quickly to my opponent

[@RiggadonDan]

I noticed today that I basically never use my cross expecting it to land. I don't think I have ever landed a cross in sparring. I use the lead hand constantly, as well as the rear hook, and sometimes the rear uppercut, but I throw the cross maybe twice a round. Thanks for the video, i'll apply some of these in training to make my cross more comfortable to use.

[@beatsbykhalon8324]

Started watching your videos @fightTIPS and other youtubers for about three years ago and I've been training ever since. Glad to see I was aware of every mistake already.

[@coreycollins6703]

Thank God I found your channel when I did this really helped me with kickboxing. I am a mistake number 1offender still tho. When throwing too close and you hit with your fingers instead of your knuckles heavy bag wins. I'm learning this lesson the hard way but luckily nothing is broke.

[@michael6880]

As a side note on tip 3, if you lean to avoid a straight counter like Shane did just now you put more weight into the bunch but makes you more open to shovel hooks or upper cuts towards the way you're leaning so keep that guard up

[@TruePhil]

1. don't muscle through the bag and jam arm. sting bag, don't hyper extend elbow, cross is long distance move 2. Step in on jab and cross and pivot at same time midair 3. Take head off the center line when crossing, dodge opponent 4. inch elbow and hand closer so you can get there quicker 5. a to b and b to a. no looping, leaves you open to get hit.

[@Horzydood]

Such a great informative video, the pivot while moving with the rear leg makes so much sense rather than keeping it in place and have to cover more distance for the strike.

[@dylanahola9085]

At the boxing gym that I go to our coaches taught us a tip to rotate the shot so our pinky is about parallel to the ground, this helps to not hyperextend the elbow. Hope this tip helps you guys too!

[@DarrelClouse]

good stuff Shane! Let's bring right foot forward as we push off with our jab. Bringing the right foot forward and quickly plant and pivot as we deliver the right hand punch.... pivoting, rotating the torso / shoulders, and bending that right knee as we complete the torso "twist" is what we call "sitting down on the punch"......loads of power with that plant and pivot. You offer very good tips!

[@paulking1285]

[@Hades-li6br]

Shane how do I get more comfortable in a southpaw position?

[@shozter7390]

Practice.... practice.... & practice.

[@soullight8632]

Spend more time in it. Simple

[@awofficial11]

The best advice I could give (BackYard boxer) is to mirror the instructions. If it says "Right Cross" then you'll do a left cross. And just spend more time doing southpaw

[@andrewboos-hartig6206]

Agreed. If you learn the combo orthodox, switch stances and do it the other way. Then study Marvin Hagler

[@dirtyclinchmaster]

Train and spar in southpaw

@fighttips how do u land a lead hook after your straight cross? It seems I'm always too far for my lead hook. (P.s. Love the channel! Been here for about 3 yrs!!)

[@UncleT-wo2ny]

Thank you Shane for making this video. I tried the straight cross on my punch pad in the back yard. I moved my head off the centre line as you mentioned and I instantly got a ton of power coming from my shoulder. This is a game changer for me, so thanks again. Also, I've seen many KZbin videos on rising elbow uppercut and was wondering if it would be a good follow through from the Thai clinch, since my opponents head would be down and open to the shot. What do you think?

I reckon we need some vlogs of you and your family Shane. Your videos are great but we want to see more of the man behind the underdogs

[@l.z.6553]

You could make a video where you show a counter to every strike. for example Jab: slip and throw a cross, or something. That would help me in sparring alot

[@timatron46live83]

Thank you

[@dzejsdzejs]

love You Shane, i have made quite a progress thanks to yours videos, great job..or jab ;)

[@fonsg2948]

Thanks big bro, i had to relearn this.

[@jordanmanning14]

Shane I have great Strategy for boxing My Trainer always taught me to keep my chin down and eyes up, and with each punch your shoulder and chin should be touching you should have a shoulder chin relationship that way if the opponent come in while you punching to hit you they can't hit your chin because your shoulder in the way. It's a great strategy it will save you a lot

[@stevenpitts1893]

Good job

[@MrTenno-vg4rm]

AYYEE. Shane you seem to put out a video when I'm trying to get it down. I want that crisp 1 2.

[@TonyqTNT]

Shane can you show close ups of bare knuckle fist placement upon the target?

[@555goahead2]

Thanks for all the informative videos , I was wondering what you think of someone new to striking doing mauy thai and boxing classes in the same week , some of the swadow boxing I ve been doing seems to have given me bad habits in a mauy thai class I recently attend , any info would be much appreciated.

[@buthag323]

GREAT VIDEO!! 😁

[@brittonweiland372]

Good stuff

[@Frlja]

This was a really good video, thanks! I am personally mostly guilty of 5. mistake, my right arm drops in most cases when I am trying to do 1-2-1-2 or any other combination where I need to my retract my right hand, as a part of a combination. Probably logically, if I just throw 1-2 small combo, I usually don't do that mistake, most probably because I can concentrate enough, due to combo being so short :D I am trying to concentrate harder with each and every training session and enjoy my time learning and advancing!

[@jokerbookshop]

Good vid 👍

[@AngelOvDeath4014]

this dude at my old school LJ was a beast bro

[@fighttips]

So the stories about LJ are true...

[@tyler4697]

Tbh seeing people like this makes me realize I should start doing boxing tutorials. He punches like someone that has been boxing for 2 years max.

[@soullight8632]

Shane, got a question that's been nagging me. How do you defend a push kick, oblique kick or any other linear kick. I got hit by a lazy push kick that hit my knee and hyperextended it and I don't want that to happen again

[@felix3436]

If it's towards the belly just pushing it to the side (opposite of which leg it is, so if the leg is on your left push it to the right) tends to work, also opens your opponent up for a hook or cross.

[@briansull50]

SoulLight if you stand sideways it is harder to hit

[@GokuInfintysaiyan]

Generally all you have to do it step in if it's lazy. If it's sharp you should step back so I travels to near full extension then either catch under the heel and cover with the other hand OR just ram your body back into it. Saenchai will damn near hump the kick using the hips and flings even top level Nak Muay on their ass.

[@iBeo01]

typically you should try to nab a lazy linear kick (catching it) and taking him down but if you don't know how to do that you can still lift your knee and check the kick. There's also taikwondo counter kicks (I don't know how to do those) and a Karate lower block. For the lower block you want to use the opposite limb he kicks with and your forearm should hit his quad/knee and push him away. (If he did a kick with his left leg, you would use your right forearm to come around and down to his quad and push his leg away so he lands with his back/kidneys facing you. But counters to this include a fake so that you drop your lead hand and he hits you or the push gives him momentum to lead into another kick)

[@soullight8632]

Just wanna say thank you to everyone on this comment thread helping me. Seriously, thanks for giving some time to give me advice.

[@derrickcreach8416]

Awesome explanation. My only question being what I'd your setting a looping cross to get them to left hook counter so you can dip and go to the body? Would that be effective or am I foolish for thinking so. Thank you

[@ronaldson57]

[@sonidodesilencio3660]

Sensei Shane, I hope you're well. I wanted to ask you where one can leave comments to ask questions specifically about their own training progress? I didn't want to start an entirely relevant thread for one of your videos. Thank you!

[@luk303]

cool video shane. i know you gotta have a good set up but i also like to throw the lead 2 instead of a jab. It is very effective if the straight is not telegraphed. ali used it against foreman i think.

[@luk303]

what do u think about a lead straight?

[@GokuInfintysaiyan]

When I think of a lead straight I tend to think you mean a weak-handed straight where you take the lead hand and pivot heavy on the front leg to throw a power shot from the jab positioning. But a leading straight would be okay in my opinion, given your straight is something the opponent can't time very well and you combine it with a hook for exiting or a double-jab for range keeping

[@luk303]

Year you got it right, i often use the straight to set up a lead hook. But then again i also use it almost like a jab, just the the straight and out. I think conor did that against ivan butchinger aswell

[@ko-kf2nu]

Should we pivot everytime when throwing the cross specially when my opponent is a stationary target.Combo 1-2-1-2 Should i pivot cross in this combo?

[@akaragdollsvids]

days ago i fought with a guy ... and when i tries to see punch for a slip .. i saw hammer punch hahaha ... and i got hit ... what could i do for that attack and i was confused
