How to Block & Counter Body Shots in Boxing or MMA

[@AxalataGilbert]

I use my face & liver to block punches hope I m doing good.

[@fighttips]

Try blocking with your groin, that should also work 👍

[@Maanicampbell1]

Just don’t counter 😂

[@palmpoptiger676]

Gudluck, just don't counter it'll make your suffering worst afterwards

[@benclay4623]

This video couldn’t of come at a better time thanks Shane. I have just started doing Muay Thai thanks to your vids and in my first sparring session I found myself dropping my hands every body jab or body hook I was taking and I got tagged on the nose. This will help greatly for my next sparring session. Thanks and keep up the good content :D

[@revelationreflection]

*couldn't have.

[@DugeHick]

I block body punches with my liver.

[@DugeHick]

The Viet Cong Boy Balls are for blocking kicks you dumb fuck.

[@hugofarm4664]

alex a ah shit man, i'm sorry

[@DugeHick]

The Viet Cong Boy No worries. Just remember, when blocking kicks with balls never used the cup! Its more effective that way

[@hugofarm4664]

alex a thank you comrade

[@logiii6854]

Headbutt my opponent's fists all the time

[@Jurr]

I've been doing martial arts for roughly 6-7 months now (MMA, BJJ and kickboxing) and I have learned so many great tips (big and small ones) from your channel so far! Keep up the awesome vids man :D

[@Synorix]

Thank you so much for this, i got destroyed yesterday by body shots not knowing how to block them haha

[@forlorn4523]

i got destroyed by my 12 year old brother 😞

[@doylee469]

Thanks guys, had my first spar in boxing today. Was doing good until he caught me with a good body shot that winded me fast. My trainer never taught how to block body shots before putting me in the ring.

[@dakotahcarufel1810]

I’m 6’7” and tonight I was getting hit in the body. Can’t wait to use these blocking techniques tomorrow. They was telling me to keep my guard tighter and just watching this video gives me a way better visual of what I need to do. Thank you so much!

[@DaroZuo]

Same here bro! Hoping to put this to use.

[@nickmuaythaiandfitness]

Being a shorter guy… that and leg kicks are my go to for taller guys 🙏🏼 I demand he takes this video down 😅 jk Jk

[@itz_cjtv1019]

Just made my life 80% easier. Thanks

[@Fenz-r5m]

I do boxing and this is very helpful thank you for being my fav youtube

[@yokito0496]

These are actually basic Yeah they are very helpful

[@jamie91995]

How can I fight someone who is super quick and always manages to sweep me. I don’t even know how he can sweep me, he just does it out of nowhere embarrassing me

[@The_Default_User]

i would say all you need is more training :D nothing embarrasing about loosing in training just think about how many motherfuckers are walking aruund that could fuck us up EASY so there will all ways be a guy that will sweep you all the time but be happy you found that guys all ready you learn the best from the best ^^

[@JoeSchmoeBro]

Have some guy who's an mma fighter dress up like u and whoop his bootay

[@CB_Music]

The Jeffrey 27 so if he sweeps you be ready for it look ar his torso so you periferral vision is always on hes limbs if its mma fight from your back, if its muay thai clinch dont be scared to get physical (no homo)

[@fightfacts5089]

The Jeffrey 27 THEN,dont stay on your toes and have good balance and try to be strong on legs,throw hard low kicks so he can not move his fucking legs until next year,I had the same problem in gym like you and the guy quit because I just stood in my place hard,not move my feet too much and surprise him with fast,explosive and powerful low kicks than are gonna break his fucking leg in half.PS.Dont let you coach see you breaking his legs in half.

[@Docinaplane]

The first thing you need to do is learn how he is sweeping you. Video a sparring session or ask him, as a fellow student, how he does it. Maybe he will teach you, and you will get better. if you establish a good relationship with him you may learn more stuff from him.

[@centralcoastselfdefense2120]

After take a hard liver shot by someone with about 60 lb weight advantage I got really good at blocking body shots... It's all I focused on for a while. Thanks for the video

[@christaylor7916]

This was EXTREEEEMELY HELPFUL. Thumbs up!

[@stixty1329]

Who else getting ready to get into s school fight 😂

[@EDOGZ818]

Good look as always Shane. Thanks for the intro to Coach PJ, he seems like a good teacher, so i subbed to his YT too!

[@ColGales]

Thank you guys I really needed this tip

[@PNN_ParodyNewsNetwork]

If Tyrone saw this video he would won against Jake Paul Lol 0:32 great video guys!

[@superalkadias]

Always learning from you Shane. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@ranjumamachan5313]

Got my ass kicked by a girl in the gym today. Just rethinking all my life choices. You know how it is. This was the exact thing I was looking for. Thanks. Not gonna jump off a building now.

[@dhruvmarri3703]

Just what I needed

[@thehandturkey8484]

You should do in-depth turturials on basic moves(jab, side kick, roundhouse kick, hook ext)

[@theomen49]

That lean is giving me flashbacks to Jones vs cormier 2

[@jamesmunroe6558]

Great breakdown, guys!

[@Mr.OnyTay]

Great video Shane and coach pj.

[@OBear07]

Great stuff, awesome videos! Thanks for posting.

[@jlife_5882]

[@trekkingtomahawk921]

1:56 parry and counter. Got it!

[@DarkpumA787]

Coach PJ babyyyy!

[@Uromastyxfanatics]

you guys are awesome thanks for sharing knowledge

[@exviper4471]

Owww Yeah Love ya PJ I want you Vince and Shane as my trainers

[@JsonF44]

perfect timing on this upload shane lol... spent the last 2 days getting slapped up in body sparring

[@markant9534]

Winky Wright was great at this.

[@NewToube-yw8dn]

Thanks guys❤️

[@jamie91995]

How can I fight someone a lot bigger and stronger than? I’m 6’1” 170and my opponent is 6’5” 220 and whenever I step in he punches me, if I punch he just leans back and takes the body shot, all I can do is low kicks but those don’t bother him and it’s really pissing me off when I work with him?

[@CB_Music]

The Jeffrey 27 is it boxing?

[@HookahTJ]

Side kicks and front kicks bro, if he leans back he let his belly exposed, a good kick to the body hurts it doesn't matter how strong your opponent is, sorry for my bad English lol

[@DiamondMiner12]

If he leans back then go for a Takedown. The best fighter to look up to is Gsp

[@545parsa]

Stay out of his danger zone and wait for him to throw a strike and then counter. If he comes in and throws his jab, slip and step forward and hit him with a hook or uppercut

[@gingercore69]

well, for the boxing part, you could try reading the book that jack dempsey wrote... just watch his fight with willard(im probably writting that name wrong), there were like 60pounds of difference, and willard was a giant! dempsey knocked him out so hard, people acused him of loading his gloves with rocks or something, for kicking, you can trip him... when he leans back try to trip his leg away and go in with a body blow... he will probably fall, and if you make him fall enough times, its over interesting that there is such a weight and size difference tho... i think you shouldnt be in the same weight division...

[@ramaigone9124]

Hands up high-chin Elbow and foream-body

[@gingercore69]

great video! i got so tired of protecting the bofy and head at the same time that i started fighting leaning foward, so the easiest target for them is the head, and i can use head movement for that... i got hit less since i started doing that, but its harder to keep up the speed and stamina fore more than a few rounds...

[@hayastan4779]

Nice tips as always.

[@thomasb2107]

I really looked to protect my head in yesterday’s sparring session (kickboxing) and almost got knocked down with a straight to the body...I have my first tournament in 3 weeks and that’s really my last BIG flaw I have to work on until that, I hope that video helped and I‘m gonna try to protect both zones equally next time, cause now I really know how „easy“ it is to hurt someone to the body, my opponent threw 60% punch but just catched me while I was breathing out so it kind of went straight through...horrible pain.

[@Alpha-tt2mh]

how was the tournament?

[@bravoalley228]

Ah Yeah. PJ is back once again. My favourite 'guest' on Fight Tips. (He's on too regular to be a guest. He needs to become part of the crew.)

[@ChitGetFit]

What if they punch lower than the elbows?

[@adithya9889]

Really helped me alot

[@Hittman_0136]

Thanks for this! I always end up taking hands down when blocking

[@kazzaproductions9186]

Coach PJ vs Shane in sparing!!! That'ed be sick

[@biohazard724]

Coach PJ! AW YEAH!

[@elwynll]

Great video. would like to see a video on how to land body punches effectively now! cheers Shane

[@tueemsyhu4846]

[@ezwinezwin2804]

Dc was definitely watching this

[@Zeieraoh]

You should try them Vr boxing games dude, it’s the new craze

[@rup.prasad]

Excellent 👍

[@Asr1905]

We were doing sparring and the coach told the my opponent in my boxing club to go easy cas I was there for a month... I knocked him out, thx Shane!

[@Seth-xh8qs]

I did boxing training for a couple months but stopped for a while cause of work. I have a friend who is 6'1'' and 190 lbs and I am 5'8" and 140. Any way we sparred and he didn't have any training so his only defense was reach. I was a bit rusty so he kept getting body shots on my lead side.

[@FlorentinoLoco]

Hi Shane. Could you make a video on the right technic, arm position and movement to throw hooks. My coach keeps saying am doing it wrong

[@essel71]

Nice gloves..and keep uploading

[@mizutxko]

For Muay Thai or MMA I usually do knee blocks for the liver and ribs

[@JDoactive]

Literally the perfect video for Joe Weller

[@Ghost-zk6ny]

Thanks!

[@Septumsempra8818]

Shane please do bareknicke stuff. Bec Rawlings stole the show with her guards. Barefisted is a great channel for that

[@handler803]

Hey Shane, can you do a video of where to look in order to see punches/kicks coming in. Like do we look at the opponents chest to see which punch is he gonna throw. For kicks, do we look at his mid section to see when he's gonna throw a kick? thanks

[@ronaldson57]

Great video can you post a video on tutorial on side teep,and lead hook kick to the ribs

[@zaeemrashid7952]

Thanks shane

[@TheFlamingNacho]

This is gonna help out so much in sparing idk why I didn’t know this ig I wasn’t playing attention

[@themartialartist1929]

Love it tx Shane and pj

[@themartialartist1929]

[@lukemmurphy795]

Dillon Nolan What's the story?

[@themartialartist1929]

Luke M Murphy nothing much bro

[@lukemmurphy795]

Dillon Nolan Fair enough. How are you finding the weather?

[@Jonathan_8052]

You and coach PJ should do a little sparring session

[@untoldofficialyoutube8563]

Nice I like this one

[@luispalapa2927]

When are the Fight Tips laced gloves coming out

[@AbidAlWassie]

Hey, Shane! Can you make a video about Tiger Tail Sweep?

[@ActuallyJozu]

The dislikes are DC and the kids from the Gilroy HS wrestling team lololol

[@zbattlez5530]

will you do a vid about the long guard? and do you recommend it?

[@percyglasper5845]

I jus want to learn boxing period its a art

[@yes.7834]

Thank you

[@cheesesteakphilly]

Thank you! I

[@fightfacts5089]

SHANE,we need gloves that are PJ wearing with laces ASAP

[@scrubzone4367]

This video came just in time. I just started doing body sparring at my boxing gym and I was at a loss on how to properly cover up.

[@anthonywilliams3517]

What's up Shane. How are you doing, stupid question could these blocks also work in dutch and Muay Thai kickboxing?

[@ufcsfavoriteson445]

I love using my lead hook cuz I spar amauters like myself and they mostly tend to drop their other hand when going for the body shot

[@l33VI08]

Thank you, this was very useful. I take boxing.

[@luisfelipemirandaterrazas8413]

Can we have an uppercut defense and counter video please, i always get caught with those

[@cringeyidiotterry]

1:44 those literally look like parries with your forearm though... Remember: anything that deflects/redirects a strike is a parry, not a block. A block stops a strike, a parry deflects/redirects one.

[@charliecostigan6170]

@fightTIPS as a fifteen year old muay thai fighter who can only get to the muay thai gym twice a week what gym or home workout would you recomend to improve for muay thai competition.

[@shaksjshakw3469]

Can you make one video how to get better dashing power

[@hinakhodiyara7883]

Nice one guys :)

[@noahbryson2122]

Your mind is the source of controll of your body so how ever fast your mind is that's how fast your going to be that's what I beileave and in every case. And senorio I've proved my point

[@krystinerios5587]

Hey Shane do you ever feel like you have put out so much content over the years that it's difficult to think of new ideas for videos or do you feel like you have so many ideas that you have trouble choosing what to do next?

[@MihirPawar-pl3nb]
