Two Boxing Defences to Use Against Three Types of Opponent

Go Here to Download Your Book - www.myboxingco... - In this video we work through 2 types of boxing defence to deal with 3 types of opponent. One of these boxing defences is a body movement, and one is a boxing footwork skill.
The two boxing skills that we use are the Lay Back and the Push Out (sometimes called the pendulum step).
The lay back is a boxing sill that involves being at long range and bending the back leg to take to take your head out of range. After execution you return to the start point and let your punches go.
It's important to keep the guard high. It's important to try to avoid bending at the waist - we want to remain fighter effective throughout the skill. Here's a proactive strike drill that demonstrates the skill, a skill that was used extensively by Floyd Mayweather Jr - • Proactive Strike Boxin...
The second boxing skill is the push out or pendulum step. This is a boxing footwork skill that involves using sharp movement to push out of (long) range to the edge of range to then push back to long range to deliver your punches.
The push out is a 'balls of your feet' drill, you'll never get it right with flat feet. Also, ensure that the line from the toe of your front foot to the heel of your back foot remains throughout the execution phase.
Oleksandr Usyk is a great exponent of the push out, you can find a breakdown of his style here - • The Oleksandr Usyk Box...
The lay back works well against defensive counter punchers, it's an assertive skill that enables you to keep pressure on the opponent.
The push out works well against static boxers or boxers that rely on a more square stance and power punching.
So there we have it, two cool boxing defences to use against different types of opponent.
Cheers
Fran

The two coaches I listen to and take most of my guidance from are you and Frolov, Fran. It's absolutely top draw from you both, in my opinion!

[@myboxingcoach]

Alexei is absolutely fantastic 👍

[@youngmaster2072]

Same found em both recently and i personally feel they're better than most coaches youd find in gyms today

[@Hellenicheavymetal]

I also follow Tony Jefferies, Coach Anthony and Precision Striking.

[@nielhansen2194]

Thats good knowlege 🎖👍

[@kezz2653]

Hi Fran, great video! Would you make a video talking about some good amateur boxers we could watch/imitate? Cheers💪🏼🥊

[@myboxingcoach]

Made a note Kezz. Thanks pal 👍

[@countdracula4656]

I used to call the lay back swaying. It was effective at giving a false sense of distance in relation to defense and offense because you could do it swaying back and you could do it going foward a little at an angle if you were at the right distance, foot to foot from the opponent.

[@jamesstat]

Absolutely brilliant Fran 🙏

[@docgb5990]

Great video..the fact I’ve gone from total beginner to being able to train and spar with Carded boxers is testement to what I learned from you Fran..thanks so much bud🥊✅✅

[@Kimmo788]

Thanks. That is valuable information. :)

[@raygsbrelcik5578]

I've been successful at quick lateral movements, more than back and forth; Probably because I'm more accustomed to them. But I'm gonna' work more on the 'back and forth' technique.

[@kevinlong2854]

Kambosos used these techniques against Lopez , great example against the pressure fighter who is trying to take you out from round 1 with power. Great video as always Fran. Thanks

[@jimmybrennan9]

NICE!

Yesss new videoo

[@Belphoron]

I would really like to incorporate that layback into my style but my trainer taught me to point the feet and hips towards the opponent and angling the back leg can damage your knee. He himself had a knee surgery because he used to stay like this. When i try standing like this i instantly feel too much pressure on my knee joint. Is that maybe something that can be done up to Lightweight? Bc me and my trainer are Cruiser/Heavyweight and then there is too much pressure on the joint?

[@vanloinguyen2619]

By the way, do we need to train our jaw and neck muscle. I heard many saying about iron jaw and thick neck. Is that really helpful?

[@myboxingcoach]

I'd spend the time working on defence instead ;-) 👍

[@ClaydogJr]

Oi m8 you’re a really good coach love you

[@peacebalancetruth]

Oi indeed.

[@myboxingcoach]

😂 Thanks mate, appreciate that👍

[@mmareviewer.2372]

It is funny how coaches say do not do this and that, but tell you to do that later on, or others saying "this style is right, the only way" but then have their pupils get destroyed by it. I had enough coaches tell me what is wrong and right until I just did what worked for me along, realizing most of these people do not understand individual strength. Following the basics and finding the right coach that understands the individual is the right way, and screw these coaches that tell you like religion how it can only be the same style, with pride they say it when they do not have a clue fundamentally. Today I am 12 and 0, but when i first started under those coaches all the damage I took until mid fight I decided to do it the ways that worked rather then what my coach religiously thought was right. I feel bad for those who cannot do it mid fight and dig in and just end up damaged for life while the coach figures it out and blames the fighter. I like this guy but at the same time as I actually fight now taking damage and giving it I am realizing why each coach is different and I for sure will teach differently, with a different attitude with out the cocky grin. Thank you for the tips. I would like to see this guy show us his fighters, their clips,, how he has shaped them, not on all these styles from pros we will never meet in our lives.

[@tracydukeplump]

I had a coach that gave bad advice and I would adjust middle of fight and come back to win

[@TheFrontman2015]

I wish I could work with this guy as a real coach

[@samkessels1398]

I'd say my boxing style is a well rounded mix of every boxing style 😅

[@EBMproductions1]

I like using both but have a bias towards pendalum stepping its been second nature for years but since im small i tend to get bigger sparring partners or opponents who attempt to fight the way you stated and i get out n in and land combos n retreat, but i will need to learn to guage wjat kind of fighter im facing and use the technique accordingly or mixing both.

That's it Erik, always thinking and having the versatility to adapt👍
