Get Past Long Range Jab | Stiff arm Jab | Glove in Your Face

[@alexpotapenko9495]

3 more ways against this stretched jabbing hand: 1st. Do it in two counts: a) With you rear hand WAVE his jab to the left. b) Shifting your stance from "orthodox" to "southpaw" by shuffling your rear right foot forward, STRIKE with you left hand which is becoming rear hand for your new southpaw stance. 2d. Also in two counts :a). With solid two hands block you GO FORWARD on his jab to close the distance. b) As soon as you feel his jab - strike with right hook. Left hand defends your head. 3. On three counts. a) Change stance opposite to his. If both of you orthodox, now you are in southpaw. b) Start your move not with shuffling front foot, but with bringing rear left foot 25sm forward SIMULTANEOUSLY parring his stretched jab hand to the left with your front right hand. (Rear foot is moving forward and front right hand is waving his jab to the left at the same time! ). c) Strike with you left hand (now rear) moving forward with your front foot (now it will be your right foot, you are "orthodox" now.

[@PavementWarrior]

Nice, I love option 1, that's really a sweet technique

[@MisterVolts]

When Larry Holmes was tracking Iron Mike's head with that long-ass left of his, Mike eventually reacted by parrying with his rear right up from underneath Larry's left coupled with a step forward and a bit of peekaboo side-to-side head movement... Just a bit advanced perhaps, but it's a good technique for the shorter fighter vs. a tall guy who is tracking with the left. Thanks. 👊🖑

I love how strategically creative you are. I will work on this. I have a dirty way that always works and never get called for. I always start a combo off an uppercut to his extended elbow. As a short guy that arm in my face annoys the shit out of me. So I just uppercut the elbow and start my combos. They typically never do it more than twice after that. Thank you so much for the ideas bro!

Faking the entry points never came to my mind. Genius amazing content

[@Nakata2021]

In a Sparring a taller guy did this to me, but I noticed he can't punch with his left when he commits to stiff. So a Just opened the distance, he retracted his arm since it would be energy lost keeping it up. Than when he went to stiff it again I steped in under his arm with a jab and right hand to the body. In that moment he could only punch with his right so I kept an eye on it to counter if he tried to use it. After that I started to mix the angle of the slip: Sometimes to his left with a jab in the face crossing his stiff arm so he couldn't lower it. Slip under with a jab to the solar plexus. Slip to his right and using a left hook. When I slip under and to his right My attetion to his right hand was doubled, the moment it moved to counter me I must be one step ahead to block or evade to counter. They key moment was the time when the arm is streched, if he commits to make a Stiff arm his reaction will be a little behind.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

[@robscott351]

Thanks, great topic and advice as usual! :-) I know the Byrd family Joe, and Chris and Chris used to do what he called pawing with it. Usually to try to take his opponents jab away, so the rear hand or even lead hook would be easier to see. But the downside is that if you get distracted and give it too much attention, or your vision gets obstructed for a bit by that extended lead, a sharp opponent can catch you. Also guys will often stick it out and paw with it and get you to fall in to their cadence, then switch up on you and nail you. I like to do a little role reversal sometimes, and keep a little more distance, where those things are not as effective, and make the other guy come after me more, then steal the march as some say. One topic I almost never see talked about is how do you best deal with feints and fakes? That would be a good one! :-)

[@timothythomas7445]

JT & Nate. This is actually one of your all times great vids for my personal learning. Like you, for my middle weight size & weight, I am normally the smaller.or shorter man which gives me a shorter reach. Engaging the opponents lead stick actually works far better than I expected. Al it takes is confidence in knowing that I will not be hit with his counter back stick. I have far more success moving or slipping to my right, his left because it forces him to move his feet more and changes his straight right, too a right cross, which is more difficult for him. Never be afraid of a disruptive lead stick, engage it.

[@boliu7324]

[@dom5034]

quick tipp: dont knock the hand DOWN but more TOWARDS your opponent and to the SIDE where his other arm is, this way you can use his arm across him to push and close the distance, putting him off balance and eliminating momentum he needs to launch the cross. when you knoch the hand down he still can move freely with his cross or can use his lead hand for a uppercut or hook. i am usually the shorter one in the ring (i train and spar muay thai) and am having a lot of success with this technique to close the distance and eliminating the stiff arm jab. something else i like to do sometimes to mix it up (but you need to be careful and have the timing right) is to pull the stiff lead arm down with my own lead hand and throw in my cross right in the so created opening, also works nice if someone shields up with both hands.

[@petercarlson811]

Good advice. And in Thai boxing this horizontal move of his jab give you a very good oportunity for a horizontal elbow attack with your right elbow (if you are in orthodox stance). If you use a step in elbow attack you can come in at a very sneaky angle.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

I've faced it a lot, once you get used to it you'll be very comfortable with it. If you can get close to the lead hand and predict/control it you'll be better off. The one thing I didn't cover is that as you move forward a lot of these guys like to move back and then fire, so you'll have to move your head or cover and be ready for that.

[@MangoOverthere]

[@averagejoe1045]

Everything you showed can be countered with a right hand.Only thing i like is the entry with the slip to the right.Tip for all the tall guys using the stiff hand.Your opponent will expect you trying to time him with the right while using the stiff hand.Be unexpected and get close with your stiff hand to his face and just power jab him

A brilliant video, best I have watched for a while. I like this format. Good Job!

[@konpoy]

East European socialist boxing tradition certainly advocates the use of the front hand to control, put pressure and for further setups. I mean good luck getting inside Erislandie Lara’s jab. Also, check out technical training of Bivol. If you want to be successful at being a tall fighter you gotta have superior footwork. Advice given in the video as far as dealing with that front hand for a shorter fighter is superb in its detail, however it is perhaps worth mentioning that that front hand is not only there to occupy space but also to do damage. And perhaps the most underused punch against someone shorter trying to get in is the lead uppercut. What that lead uppercut is there to do is to cut in half that line of head movement underneath that lead hand hook, for example. The old Robinson’s tactic. He would actually step back, kicking the lead heel up throwing it at the opponents chin. Thus an unorthodox type of a hook introduced.

[@laneheis4541]

Also, for anyone who doesn’t actually train or is really new, don’t take full steps like he is in video. You should be changing directions hip first and taking half steps, if the guy had long reach and he had his glove in your face limiting mobility and he saw you fully commit to a step like he is in the vid, he’d probably drop you. By taking that full step to the side and leading with your shoulders you remove your steady foundation and put yourself off balance to the point he could just lightly tap you and it would have you stumbling.

That good old school style. But let me tell you coach. Option 4 you have to use the right hook/uppercut. Why you don't use your right hand. Option 3 you enter dangerously in the line. Not recommended. Option 5 is the best combined with right hand parring to protect chin from his jab.

[@jonathanfrushour3928]

They use it as a smoke screen and measuring stick to land that right hand. Dealt with a couple boxers in my amateur days that did that. My coach taught me to stay low, slip and come up with hooks and uppercuts and angle out. And just repeat in different variations to frustrate them.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

Only if he knows which way you are coming in. I covered all 4 ways in this video: straight in, from the left, from the right, below (and even slip as you enter). It's your job to get to your target without him knowing HOW and WHEN you plan to come in (I put all caps just to show emphasis). This is the challenge of being a shorter fighter. Until the days comes that we can find a way to attack from the sky.

What about this fighting a southpaw opponent (when in orthodox)? I sparred a friend and stiff right hand in my face gave me a lot of problems. I guess similar principles of feinting but different entries of attack? Although their stiff arm keeps your jabing hand occupied which to me makes it more difficult to enter because not able to use the jab to set up the other strikes so you're more easily timed.

Three basic striking angles are constantly being used - the jab, the lead hook and the hook-uppercut all to the neck area. This genioso old school tactic allows for cutting off all directions of head movement and control of the chin bringing it up for further punches with more power. Also, this lead hand control can be done with pressure.
