How to Parry as an Orthodox Fighter

[@bradquakeriddell]

Our little #QuakeCityCrew is already at 3.5k subscribers. To the OG subscribers - thanks for putting up with the terrible audio for so long. I finally got a mic! Anyhow, I'm thinking of doing some sort of giveaway when we hit 10k.

Hey mate just clicked on your KZbin channel and it says you don’t have any content. I have to click onto your video portion of your channel to find your videos. Hopefully you can edit your main page of your channel to make it as high quality as your videos!!

[@bradquakeriddell]

Hmm... I'll take a look. Thanks.

[@gimme_da_mili3725]

Great video. Quick question , if you are a southpaw fighter against an orthodox fighter. What hand does the south paw parry with? Is it the front hand or the back hand?

[@bradquakeriddell]

@@gimme_da_mili3725 This will be answered in the next tutorial 😊

[@chimpz4ever]

A lapel mic! Now the quality of the mic matches the quality of the lessons. Thank you!!

[@bradquakeriddell]

HA. Yes, thanks for noticing. Marisa has been lecturing me on how I need a mic for about a year. And so I finally got one.

[@blackomega4061]

Brad's videos are like hidden gems! It's crazy how they haven't blown up yet. So much expertise and knowledge of the finer details. 👊

[@bradquakeriddell]

Thank you. Glad you appreciate the videos. Commenting and liking them lets the KZbin algorithm know that people find the video helpful.

[@Kibira87]

I loved every variation. Simple, technical, and effective. Freaking awesome. Thank you so much Brad!

[@bradquakeriddell]

You're welcome.

[@dylanrameka5059]

Excellent video The small details make a big difference and has helped me heaps in sparing.

[@bradquakeriddell]

Great to hear

[@Creeperboy-jw2tt]

Such a simple tip. Defs using this in sparring this week.

[@MrBawble]

Absolute gems again in this one🙏 Super easy and digestible. Big love for both the short/tall variations and partner drill work, that was really helpful.

[@bradquakeriddell]

Glad you liked it.

[@ymf3060]

In every video of yours I found a detail that can make a tremendous difference like the one at 7:10, about deleting the "pump". Many people do that without even knowing it. This channel is a goldmine but I wanted to ask you aren't you worried your future opponents will have a easier time studying you because of it? For example you mentioned in your video "Counter-striking with Brad Riddell & Brentin Mumford: The check-hook" that your favorite and most successful punch is your left hook, and in another video "How to QUICKLY Double up the Hook | Reset Faster" (one of your best videos imo) you mention that when you throw your hooks you're usually at a range when your opponent can't kick you. Your last opponent Magomed had a kick heavy striking game but he couldn't use them because of the close range you kept throughout the fight. Anyway can't wait to see you back in there champ!

[@bradquakeriddell]

Na, I'll be sweet. This is not even the tip of the ice berg in regard to striking information and tech that comes from our coaches . Also remember it is easy to learn something like this from a video and drill it sparring etc but applying it in a fight with 4ounce gloves changes things dramatically. So the answer I guess is no Haha

[@--1644]

The parry is the best counter to a punch imo

[@bradquakeriddell]

Simple yet effective.

[@leonflorence118]

Such an underrated channel.

[@williamdavis7629]

Brad, Thanks for a very informative video. Will you be giving instruction as to parrying your opponent’s right hand? Thanks!

[@bradquakeriddell]

Yes, I will.

[@hsbtm3655]

Glad KZbin showed me his channel

[@WapKonGe0rge]

The devil is in the detail. A 10 min video with enough to work on for a month. All your content is gold Brad. Big respect from Canada

[@bradquakeriddell]

I appreciate the comment. When I made this I was like, "Will anyone watch 10 minutes on just a parry?". Haha.

[@jovankostic7708]

Mr. Riddell make a series that would show the basics and fundamentals of boxing and mma , support from Serbia

[@bradquakeriddell]

Thanks for the suggestions.

[@showlynsewpershad1468]

Solid breakdown!

[@stanleemma]

Hey Brad your channel is great, thanks for giving away great tips!

[@bradquakeriddell]

Glad you like them

[@stanleemma]

@@bradquakeriddell I make videos as well, although not as qualified as you haha I made one on Dan Hooker last week and have one on your other Teammate Volk coming! Love to know what you thought.

[@pranavmoorthi8532]

@stan lee MMA u make awesome content

[@tynha01]

Great vid as always 🙏

[@bradquakeriddell]

Thank you again

[@bks3510]

Hey mate, fan since the mullarky fight in melbs. Was in audience and that was fight of night for sure. Looking for more striking technique videos from pros since im still lockdown. Especially interested in techniques about South paw vs orthodox. Also why dont southpaws switch stance in to the pocket then fire. Think its a good video idea but thats up to you. Cheers mate and congrats on the last W.

[@mhh8072]

Thank you my bro.

[@pranavmoorthi8532]

Oiii not in the legendary GI PI anymore what a shame!!

[@bradquakeriddell]

haha. Not to worry though - we will still film at the GI PI.

[@u.a.1449]

Hi Brad, What do you think of a more bladed boxing stance in MMA? People say you can't defend leg kicks, and you can't do left hooks unless you wind them up. Thoughts? Great channel, thanks

[@bradquakeriddell]

The bladed stance does leave you open for various attacks, but I'm reluctant to say "it is bad for MMA", especially when you know how to use it effectively. It can be dangerous when a fighter can switch between the bladed and a more squared stance in order to disguise attacks. I made a video with Carl Van Roon called "TKD vs Kickboxing". He is the best in the world when it comes to TKD and bladed stances, and he helped me with my fight camp against Magomed Mustafaev. Perhaps that video may interest you and answer your questions. If not, check out his channel @vanroonmartialarts . He has a wealth of knowledge and fights MMA too.

[@User-is2kf]

Hooker and Porier fight was crazy wanted Hooker to win but gas out at the last rd fight of the year! No dealt

[@bradquakeriddell]

That fight was epic!

[@LunaticReason]

I was wondering if you could help me. I am a Kung Fu practitioner and I am trying to troubeshoot and modernize the art by studying how other martial arts fight in comparison. I notice with a lot of parrying in Boxing you are taking the outside position of your opponents lead by knocking them out of position across their centerline. my question are there any parrying techniques that you would remain in the side and parry their attack outward?

[@brontesimpson8837]

Would you only parry the jab if it’s coming with some heat?

[@whoknows8223]

I rather use the slip tbh. Because when I for myself see someone use to parry my jab I feint it halfway and then come with a left long hook, because the left side of the face is all open. I'm afraid someone is intermediate, seeing that pattern, doing that to me too.

[@bradquakeriddell]

I talk about that in my video on the change up jab. Pretty much the beginning of a jab but changes mid-way to a long hook, like you mention.

[@greengreensio]

You should organize a one hour class for ur subscribers for $15-20. We love to meet you in person
