Glad to see MORE PEOPLE PRAISING RIGONDEAUX. SHOWS HE HAS MANY FOLLOWERS THAT PEOPLE DIDNT THINK WERE THERE

[@expertboxing]

I'm a huge fan. He's a great fighter!

[@morgueblack]

One of the best videos on Guillermo's tricks out there. As a southpaw, I may have found a solution to one of my orthodox sparring partners who likes taking the lead foot dominant position. It's in this video.

Barracuda619x gee-yermo ri-gon-dough is the proper way of pronouncing

[@lesse4692]

"Rigondó" is a french surname "Guyermo"

[@pedrobrocato1982]

Omg, he’s killing me with that..

[@PlayaflyJoe27]

Your breakdown of "Ri-gon-doe" is the reason he's called the jackal. Very clever fighter

[@Sanjeev9411906770]

Really you are the best boxing coach I found in whole youtube dude! You provide great info always!

[@raymondmartinez1263]

Rigondeaux's style is so technical, i love it.. great video.. the loma v rigo fight is going to be epic tactical warfare. I just think its terrible how the industry treats rigondeaux though, opponents near his weightclass have pretty much blackballed him, & apparently if he loses, they're stripping him of his belt @122 even though the fight is 2 weight classes higher

[@expertboxing]

I totally agree and think it's absolutely criminal to deny one of the best boxing talents in a long time and unfortunately, he won't be revered in history because of this. Really sad to see LSC, Frampton, Mares hijacking the belt with their round-robin rematches.

[@thanksforthacheese5977]

expertboxing can't expect him to be revered when he fucking quit against loma..no heart.

[@dantedlane2]

He ducked his mandos

[@richard0909renwat]

Good to see you back johnny

[@tombrown8218]

Very nice breakdown! Many Thanks!

[@SuperFanBrad]

great insight. Thank you

[@yahchile7681]

Awesome!! I'm learning alot

[@allanh7137]

He was majestic in his prime.

[@expertboxing]

hell even out if his prime, he was still majestic

[@MarelysLeyvaAntunez]

Good video!!!

[@mauna2004]

So good thanks for the breakdown

[@ricky_dros]

Love this vídeo!!

[@expertboxing]

thank you!

[@CalicoArchives]

Can't wait for the Lomachenko vs Rigondeaux fight. I think Loma has a slight advantage because he's younger but it should be close.

[@JJ-dc9sh]

Howard Kim Rigondeaux is in great shape, his age doesn’t matter to him.

[@CalicoArchives]

I can see it being a pretty even match. Rigondeaux has a reach advantage even though he's older. Should be a good fight.

[@expertboxing]

Will be a great fight for sure even though I don't consider it a fair fight. I'm excited for December.

[@thanksforthacheese5977]

expertboxing how not a fair fight?

[@dantedlane2]

He got outclassed,every tactic he had Loma had a plan and exposed how one trick pony one dimensional amd dumb Rigo was

[@winfield841]

Great breakdown! 1 of my fav fighters and deserves more praise

[@expertboxing]

Much appreciated

[@mateo52malecki]

i have loved dis video, actually. thx, dr Jonnie

[@brachavo1833]

Please be more consistent with the uploads man. I learn a lot from you.

[@moealmighty5700]

Aye Johnny, do you have any videos of your previous amateur bouts? I would really love to see them. Thank you 🙏

[@rolkicom]

Great video. Good job :)

[@expertboxing]

Thanks, man! Glad you like it.

[@jimmyjazz8325]

Incredible analysis on Rigondeaux' technique. Thank you. I hope he gets healthy soon!

[@expertboxing]

unfortunately i think he’s finally getting too old

[@namjournal]

Very useful techniques. Improve my game like 20%

[@expertboxing]

HELL YEAH! That's what I love to here.

[@edwardwelsch5893]

Hey Johnny, have you ever done a video how and when to use the clinch? Or whatever you want to call it: tying people up, muscling them, holding and turning them. I'm brand new to sparring and it seems like such a useful technique that doesn't really get taught in classes.

[@expertboxing]

Check out my "Inside-Fighting" series. I show all those techniques in there.

[@tonymackstarktonymackstark2823]

Thank you master 🙏🙂

[@mhsek8340]

nice one

[@r.a.8407]

That was nice i wish he had clips to back it up but still very good video

[@expertboxing]

Hahah, plenty of Rigo videos to back that up for you.

[@sabet3600]

Great

[@quensoueu1]

This channel is amazing, cheers fellow warrior

[@expertboxing]

Thanks, my friend!

[@halojames7778]

quensoueu1 - Agree, the explanation is clear and easy to understand.

[@RevanLaughs]

Loma vs Rigo should be a decent fight. Loma will most likely win though...younger, bigger, much more active in the ring. Mechanically comparable. Doesn’t take as many dumb chances. People want to hate on Loma because of his one loss to a decent fighter in Low Blow Salido, but at the same time will ignore Rigo getting knocked down multiple times throughout his career by fighters who are a half notch above tomato cans (sure he wins the fights...but putting yourself in those situations against a great fighter like Loma won’t fly).

[@flexgado249]

Nice 👍

[@goldyempiremusic]

[@aisadal2521]

Got any sparring videos of yourself and another fellow boxer?

[@christiansevall]

EXPERT BOXING I NEED HELP PLEASE REPLY. So I am having trouble in the gym with a tall southpaw, everytime I try to throw my right hook or overhand he seems to easily counter me with his left hook, how can I evade this counter and land my right hook/overhand.

[@micahsmith1214]

More videos

[@moussechan5940]

7:35 thank you for this one! Im using a southpaw philly shell and my opponent really loves to pressure me

[@ben10run3]

Hey Johnny love the videos they really have helped me I am 5,6 and feel comfortable at 140 at 13% BF am I too small/short for my weight class and I should try go below that or will I be ok? Any advice/experience feedback appreciated Keep the vids up love them very informative and helpful. Amit Show less REPLY

[@sd3116]

Gervonta davis won 140 championship at around that height.

[@paypower8127]

It would’ve been nice if you threw in some clips of him doing this but great tips 🙏

[@expertboxing]

Yeah, I hate dealing with copyright claims or I totally would.

[@bartangel4867]

interesting video. but while some of those things might work under any circumstances. if you have enough experience. the part about him lowering his head and just waiting for an opponent while giving his back to his opponent that might work in pure boxing but it will be all but suicidal in MMA. as far as the first strategy I think this might work which is good for me because this means I would have another trick up my sleeve something that opponent might not expect. however I noticed that even you when you were doing this move yourself your lead leg was at the same position or even slightly outside your opponents lead leg despite you moving towards your left. And this is the right way to do it in my opinion because no matter what if your opponent is too far outside of you you are in almost always in disadvantageous position. and the reason why the move you showed works is because despite you moving to his inside your leg is not really inside his or at least not deep inside at the time of the actual hit. also as far as this sideways stance. there are advantages and disadvantages to it. in a pure boxing this is the way you want to stand because it gives you good mobility, range and makes you small target. but in sport that involves kicking you can get your legs kicked out from under you relatively easily this way. now as far as this stance in southpaw vs orthodox this is a great way to stand if you once again your lead leg is outside of his lead leg. because then you are far away from both his rear leg and even if he can reach you with it its easier to block. and his lead leg is useless. yours is not. and you have great mobility. also if you are both standing in this position but you are outside you are in better position to deliver punches than he is and you can deliver a devastating lead leg pendulum kick right behind his knee while he can't do the same to you even though you are both in same stance precisely because you are outside oh him. as far as the first move you shown. that might actually be a great move. but once again just because you are moving to opponent's inside that does not mean your lead leg is to his inside and you are generally outside of him during the final hit. but still done correctly it is a great move.

[@johnbonjov1491]

Yo! Just a question,i have really bad stamina and because of that my endurance is crap so how do i improve endurance?

[@expertboxing]

Skip rope, speed bag, lots of sparring and training.

[@firepowerjohan]

Clip was nice first, but really sad to see there are so many ways of grabbing that should be prevented by rules. That square up thing he does when inside foot, can it be varied so that he just circle back-left? That way would be very hard for opponent to know.

[@expertboxing]

Yeaup...there are many little tricks that are borderline.

[@ricky_dros]

Could you do a video for southpaws vs southpaws, because I am used to fighting against ortodox, and when I have to fight with southpaws it becomes very difficult for me... I'm sure other southpaws have the same problem Thanks!

[@expertboxing]

just use the same tactics that orthodox fighters do against other orthodox

[@senorjab208]

Bad ass.

[@cypress5633]

Is there a way to make a defensive fighter become an offensive(baithim/her to you)

[@expertboxing]

Ha, that's the question of the century. Some opponents will just stink out the fight in return but it's dangerous since you're letting him dictate the pace now.

[@dominicnguyen430]

Would you recommend using any of these if you're orthodox v ortho? Or maybe some variation?

[@expertboxing]

In my opinion, no. The tactics are made exactly for orthodox-vs-southpaw angles.

[@dominicnguyen430]

expertboxing damn ok. Thanks though, very informative vid I always learn plenty from you

[@dragoflair3495]

1 question Could this work as a orthodox

[@lefthook95]

Do dmytri pirog boxing tricks.

[@expertboxing]

Oh man, I love that guy!

[@theone3772]

Hey i just subscribed to your channel and i know you are a boxing trainer but i've been training kickboxing for a while now and i started to wonder if the gym is any good. We do 2 times a week sparring with different people for up to 10 rounds and most people are with 10 oz gloves because more oz ''protects the guy with the bigger gloves not the opponent'' and it's suitable for amateur competition. It's not specific type of sparring so it basicly depends on the people's mood if it's gonna be full contact sparring or hit point sparring, wich for me atleast makes it weird because i don't know what to do and i don't realy like that mental gymnastics - either hit point sparring or full contact sparring, if it's not said what type of sparring it is it's kinda confusing for me. We do 2 times a week technique, wich is basicly practising the punches and kicks kinda like in martial arts, but we don't do any mitt training, we all do the same type of training ( people that train for alot longer and people that train for like 5 months) and i feel like every combination, punch and kicks in my head is just in full chaos or combinations that just don't make lots of sense, maybe because there is no mitt training. The trainer basicly encourages the students to train with the gear that will be used in competition matches, wich i think is a little retarded. To use that gloves / shin protectors for sparring, sometimes heavy bag and for competitions doesn't make alot of sense. 1 day a week the same type of conditioning physical training over and over. I've also watched the people that complete in matches how they train. 2 times a day, basicly the same with more heavy bag and one other workout called ''300'' wich is very hard so i've heard, because you do some things including push ups, sit ups, working the stomach for time stamps making it to 100 or so i've heard (it's not like that but i don't remember exactly what it is) the problem is, one guy was 17 and the other 21 with the 17 training for 4 years and the 21 training for like 10 or 11 years, yet they do the same exercises when they will need different things to develop and again no mitt training. there are people that are pretty good from my perspective in the gym to be honest, including the 21 year old wich is very good but i don't know if that happened because of that trainer or that training or simply the time and effort put into it played it's part. Doubting in your trainer and his training methods is EXTREMELY DEMOTIVATING so i just want to know the truth. there was other kickboxing trainer at the place i am but there was like no sparring and no conditioning with him at all, people go and die at competition in his gym and leave and he pretends to be expert at 205978209578 martial arts... with is simply BS. maybe i should switch to boxing, but i don't know if it will be much better, but i won't know untill i try. But i realy want to know if this type of training sounds good to you - unspecified 10 rounds sparring for 2 days, no mitt training, same type of physical workout, people on completely different level doing the same things, 10 oz for everything, he also likes some other things better than the hand wraps i think it was called jell something... and the technique is so good that most people don't know a single combination and it's basicly chaos in the brain/ muscle memory, trying to land single shots but forget that, that might be because i'm still not good enough. What realy makes me hesitate is the same type of training for different people, no mitts, unspecified close to 10 round sparring rounds for 2 days a week. Also there is no real ring, please i need to hear your opinion, i hope i'm the dumb one here because if i'm not i may have to switch to hole different sport.

[@expertboxing]

Yeah...I recommend visiting some other gyms and comparing for yourself

[@theone3772]

Ok thanks for the feedback i realy appreciate it !!!

[@dragoflair3495]

Could these tactics work with orthodox?

[@expertboxing]

Probably not exactly the same but why not try it?

[@themartialartist1929]

Where is Johnny at

[@expertboxing]

RIGHT HERE!

[@dantedlane2]

@@expertboxing Johnny do you have tips for leaning on somebody

[@neilbk0300]

why can’t this work for the orthodox stance as well ?

[@hailberseker5387]

i like mayweather and rigondeaux for the technical part but honestly i prefer boxer who go at war like ggg

[@expertboxing]

hahahaha

[@isaiassaavedra7685]

Can you do one about ggg

[@expertboxing]

That's an interesting one for sure! I already have some ideas of ittle things he does.

[@skotiskiller]

Please if you do one for GGG dont forget to include the proper punching style that he has (and most of the boxers from the ex Warsaw Pack countries have) because of his excellent amateur background.The way he connects with most of his punches and the way he puts his body behind his shots/snaps his shoulders, he even throw the hook with the palm horizontally to the floor to land with the knuckles all the time.He is the cleanest boxer out there.It is important cause many guys especially in USA don't appreciate clean boxing ,they are too used to landing with the wrist or slapping.

[@expertboxing]

I can assure you many guys, especially in the USA appreciate clean boxing. Maybe US amateurs might be something else but US pros do like clean fighting.

[@Asek-le4zx]

A lot of you guys talking trash in the comments need a dose of humility you never know what this life will give you. You can learn from anyone from the CEO of a fortune 500 company to a so-called bum who has been in the streets 30+ years; all you are showing is your own insecurity when you’re commenting and putting your nose up in the air looking down on someone you don’t even know.

[@expertboxing]

amen

[@dakota1014]

Who you picking loma or rigo ?

[@expertboxing]

Loma is the easy for me because of size and age. And also because Rigo has been down before. Had they been the same size and same age, I'd pick Rigo.

[@dakota1014]

expertboxing fair enough . I kinda agree but I wouldn't say loma is the easy pick I think it's about a 55 - 45 fight with a slight edge to loma due to weight advantage . I don't care too much for rigo being knocked down before because loma doesn't have crazy power imo it's like his only weakness really , he doesn't knock guys out he just beats the will out them which is sort of more impressive lol

[@expertboxing]

The weight is a huge deal. 8lbs between 160 and 168 is big. 8lbs apart at the smaller weight classes (122 to 130) is gigantic. At the smaller weight, it's like going from 147 to 160. Not only that but Rigo is a small 122; I think he can still make 118...he's only at 122 to get fights. Loma on the other hand is already talking about 136 and you can see his body will probably grow just a tiny bit more. And then there's age, which does matter. I'm not saying it's an easy win for Loma but I have to pick him because of the advantages in his favor.

[@dakota1014]

expertboxing yeah I think loma is probably the safer bet ,will be interesting to see how rigos power carries up . Can't wait for December though it's been a great year for boxing .

[@expertboxing]

Seriously, so many great fights already happened. I'll be pretty happy if we get Wilder-Joshua, Thurman-Spence, Canelo-GGG, Crawford-Horn soon.

[@da1stlangzai]

Is this the cuban boxing system? Both Rigo and Luis ortiz move to the left into the power hand of the orthodox fighter. Southpaw counterstrikers who don't like to jab.

[@moo3992]

Walking into a right hook?

[@theghostofcornpop4175]

Aye Wats the craic then you c

[@FlipWarBucks]

I saw this year's ago and coaches often don't seem to realize the angles and defense a south paw can see if they are crafty enough. Btw your pronunciation of his name hurts my ears bro. Great vid tho

[@expertboxing]

My main sparrring partner was southpaw so it's easy to see new tactics. I'm always looking for ways to outsmart him. Hahaha....you should try listening to HBO's pronunciation.

[@lamok7301]

are you a Filipino

[@mailtojarriya]

I think the way to fight this guy is you jump on top of him. Riding him like a horse. I am sure he never see that coming

[@omegared4546]

Rigo vs casimero

[@azimmosawi520]

loma must have watched your video koz he checked all the rigo moves. why did you give it away ...

[@expertboxing]

I'm pretty sure Loma saw all his tricks before I did.

[@eduardedi128]

The first thing isnt useable for anyone, you ll get battered getting on the inside

[@abelhasrisen2793]

Eduard Edi i know these guys use their imagination too much and aren't very realistic. I hope these guys don't get into any fights using these awful techniques.

[@expertboxing]

That's part of why it's a trick. It only works when he does it. Literally nobody else, including pros, does this.

[@morgueblack]

That step-to-the-left technique is effective. I did it as a slip to an orthodox right. Then fired a left cross that landed flush. It looks dangerous to use though against the orthdox jab: as southpaw lands the left foot, orthodox right will be coming in (if he did a 1-2). Can still be avoided with a duck under the right cross.

[@expertboxing]

Yeaup, I've done the same to southpaws.

[@Acord718]

How to fight like Miguel Cotto

[@expertboxing]

Ooooohhh...ok, I have some ideas.

[@hallmonitor98]

what happened to the gym?

[@expertboxing]

The gym still exists but it's more popular now. Too many people training in there at all hours of the day, even at 2am in the middle of the night. So it's impossible for me to record and talk without a bunch of background noise and silly clowns trying to make me laugh.

[@bilalprinter3148]

I am monfughion

[@expertboxing]

what is that?

[@abelhasrisen2793]

He doesn't just bend, he squats. Your posture is horrible. Please don't get in a real fight. You will get hurt against the wrong guy.

[@expertboxing]

Yeaup, he also a wider stance at times. I don't fight like him at all and I'm not gonna try to match his every body movement habit. Either you appreciate the point I'm trying to share or you can be a critic because I don't match someone who fights nothing like I do. And yes, ALL of these advanced tactics can get you hurt against anyone. The videos are constantly requested and while I can't say I'm being 100% responsible in sharing this with a channel filled with many noob followers, it's the market demand.
