A good overhand is a game changer, really good for the shorter fighter.

[@jaredheng3442]

I'm just leaving this here for personal reference 2:57

[@edmondtarverdyan1824]

Wow great video, I was searching this quality stuff from like 6 months.

[@MMACoach79]

An Amazing guy that helps so many people that want to learn, keep up the good work

[@MMACoach79]

Thank you very much! :)

[@ponzee22]

Wow thank you I've always wanted to learn this style of overhand. And you do such clear break down with a step by step and explain the mechanics of not only HOW but also WHY. Bravo.

[@whoknows8223]

Hi, today I just encountered your channel. Doing Kickboxing for 4 years now and want to try out a MMA Club after lockdown. This video helped me a lot, I was wondering very long how this punch works as we never practised/ utilized it in Kickboxing? Maybe because of the different glove size its not working as good? Great Content very well explained. Thank you! Greetings from Germany!

[@leafsfan71]

Great video! Thank you!

[@MMACoach79]

leafsfan71 Thanks.

[@andrewtanczyk4009]

Good teaching of an advanced punch.

liar ur just an keyboard warrior

[@goofball9292]

Mark Donald its because we should have a sane mind and not have a mindset that doesn't let's you realise the safety of your enemy, brain damages and other life threatening injuries are not fun, little bullying doesn't deserves this type of lethality and its life long life ruining effects.

[@kukumbarglicko8082]

@@arturo8475 nice realistic answer

[@tjjordan9715]

I was looking for proper instruction on this strike to send to a friend's sons. I watched God only knows how many videos before finding this excellent one. Thank you.

[@MMACoach79]

Thank you. You can send him this free course too: mmacoach.net/free-mma-course/

[@tjjordan9715]

@@MMACoach79 I will do exactly that. You're an excellent teacher.

[@amartya9034]

This one is going on my list. Perform it correctly and it could be devastating to a person.

[@kmontazer]

Great video man. Great coaching.

[@MMACoach79]

kmontazer Thank you. More to come...

👍thank you

[@iamchamp6814]

thanks do you have a video how to defend overhand right/

[@MMACoach79]

+simpleng tao Not yet. There are many ways. Elbow cover, moving out of the way, weaving...

[@goofball9292]

Liked and subscribed, thank you

[@SapphireUnique]

thanks man ur a good teacher. I can imagine this punch would be super risky to try if someone was untrained as it would turn into the typical haymaker offtime punch you see too often in street fights

[@MMACoach79]

Every technique attempted that is not trained is risky.

[@justhamm8346]

Great vid. We should go on a date

[@shumarymastersonv4256]

you should make a video on head movement

[@MMACoach79]

I did to an extent: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoCyl5ejltmBj8U

[@globalservicesbangalore4493]

I'm interested to join mma

[@Milanders]

Are Thai pads better to use than boxing mitts?

[@MMACoach79]

For this type of an overhand they surely are. Other than that, no.

[@charlesbatkin8722]

Best tip I've ever heard is that power comes from the shoulders, words to live by

[@jasiahkamakele8297]

Power comes from your legs

[@skip741x3]

power comes from ur Hips...from the core centre of ur body.. movement should begin there, then it radiates up thru the torso, down thru the legs...ultimately it both goes into the ground and out thru the shoulders ,arms and fist...this is true of boxing and martial arts and most other sports as well, be it baseball,tennis,even golf.. it starts in the hips

[@Stamenbelchev]

My thumb always hurts on impact when I throw a overhead right. Why is that and how can I correct this?

[@MMACoach79]

Probably because you haven't positioned you hand correctly, so the punch lands on your thumb (quite a common mistake) and can get fractured (also common). The impact surface is the first two knuckles as I have explained it in the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYLdeaagocSeptU

[@Liquidcadmus]

nice tutorial,. osu!

[@mikkiwilliams8930]

Bro yu gotta this it from chin and it goes over the jab...yur gonna break your shoulder

[@jjstratford]

You need to keep your forearm behind and in line with your fist

[@gavinvonmeyer3746]

How to defend this overhead punch?

[@PapiChulo1224]

Imagine blocking a hook but tilt your body à lil to the right (If the overhand comes from your left side) either that or slip to the left

[@CA-gk6ss]

Move

[@rvp225]

is this recommended to start a fight?

[@markhassan6203]

ArmanTheKing Only if you want to telegraph your intent.

[@nickspurdo5503]

You'll get tackled if you do

[@CA-gk6ss]

No this will end a fight

[@oghost5766]

Cuba hate this punch

[@kmsrbkekulandara1782]

It's traditional muay boran punch

[@lm6827]

I was told not to drop my hand when throwing it because it's slower but your doing it too

[@fernando18455]

Logan Moore who told you that?

[@charlesbatkin8722]

Nah, never drop a hand on a straight punch, unless you're doing something really tricky

[@KenneithTV]

over hand Punch, has big Chance to Knock Out The Player, in sports,

[@SubjectSwag]

But what if im a right hander who fights in southpaw position

[@MMACoach79]

It doesn't matter. You will still perform an overhand punch with your back hand. I'm also a righty that fights in southpaw (I switched from orthodox a few years ago). BTW, you can also do an overhand with your lead hand. Robbie Lawler KO'd Melvin Manhoeff with a lead overhand in Strikeforce before he came to the UFC.

[@rffg781]

MMA Coach off topic but would you have any tips on how right handed southpaws can train up their left hand? I've found that I rely far too much on my (dominant) lead right hand in sparring. Thank you

[@fucu41]

K. L. jus practice hitting with the left hand only

[@amartya9034]

Basically you're stupid

[@ice_wallow_come5449]

Throw an overhand from your lead 🤚

Once i was doing sparring I punched like this and I knocked him out I recommend it

[@bullet_bg]

are u crazy u will break your arm like that!

[@jameshurley4959]

Watch some butterbean fights its hugely effective

[@LobsterAW]

Watch half of all mma fights

[@CorporaMedicina]

Nice thank you... PS: dont do in street fight, its dangerous...you can do the same with open hand and slap the opponent..much safer.

[@goofball9292]

savcob yes I agree, many people often forget the safety of the other guy, takes a man with a sane mind and a big heart to also think about the other guy if its outside of a sport, like something personal, in a street or school etc

[@leomermenang1360]

What do you mean dangerous? Sorry i cant get it.

[@Incathealc]

Like dangerous as in for me to throw it due to a counter of some sort or? Dangerous for the other person
