How To Power Punch: Controlled Aggression

In this video I go over an important element in Power Punching and how it effects your performance.
Most fighters fear loosing their balance when they throw a power shot and miss their target.
They're afraid of being countered, being unstable or getting knocked out from being in a bad position.
What good does it do you if you have knock out power in both your fists but you second guess yourself or hesitate to throw your punch or worse yet, don't have confidence in your striking ability.
The information I teach you in this video will help you unleash your power by taking off the brakes and allowing you to free your power and confidence.
So watch the video and learn to control your aggression and become a nightmare to your attacker.

Love all your videos. Truly great. Would love to see you critique a few KZbin street fights. What was done well. What mistakes were made etc. something to consider maybe? Thx again for all the effort in making these great videos. I hope people who live close and have a desire to protect themselves and/or fight take advantage of your vast knowledge and train at your facility.

Excellent idea Scott.

These videos are really helpful thank you! And if you may can you please make a video on how to get in within somebody if they have allot of length on you with their arms because I have a problem with getting in on people with longer arms than me. Very much appreciated if this can be made and maybe give me an email when you post it. Thank you

A good mma fight to watch is Lenard Garcia vs Nam Phan II. Garcia tried to power punch but used wild, wide, lunging steps to setup his punches. Leaving him off balanced and easy to counter. On top of that he used bouncy on the ball footwork to retreat or balance himself after missing a punch. Nam Phan while not a power fighter or aware of bare knuckle strategies was able to pick Garcia because he used controlled balanced footwork.

I'll have to watch that fight, thanks Natum990.

Just watched the fight, if Garcia had learned to shift, drop step, and control his aggression, he would have knocked out Nam very quickly. But he used up his energy falling all over himself. This is what happens to those who only half-punch as Jack Dempsey called it, in other words not stepping with his punches!

Daniel, great video! Helps put together a lot of questions I've had over the last few years watching you, Rich, and N. Question for you - if you're throwing a right elbow (so your head needs to finish over your left foot)- if you're going to throw another right elbow next, how are you getting your hips to circle back to your base stance? are you shifting your weight from your left foot back to right while simultaneously repivoting? Thanks!

[@barefisted5334]

You would take another short step with the lead foot and drive with the rear foot as you would reload and throw the right elbow again.
