Footwork (proper footwork) is the most overlooked and under-trained aspect of any martial art. AWESOME video, thank you so much for posting !!

[@davidrajaruzicka5546]

I have looked at "circle walking" as a substitute to leaps and shuffles for more fluid and dynamic movement to create angles and escape without traveling super far and then incorporate hooks in the spinning so I have a chance to deflect straight punches being launched at me.

[@JohnEpresent]

Not true but okay

[@morgueblack]

@@JohnEpresent What he said is true. Only boxing really trains footwork in spades.

I was in a street fight once and this dude Swung at me and I slipped and he swung again right after and I went right into a Roll Just a Nice Slip N Roll and I am telling you, that Alone without me throwing One Punch Took the will to fight out of him. I mean the look on his and the people there Faces was Priceless. I would say a Good 60% maybe even more of the Tough guys on the street might have a Hard Sucker Punch or haymaker in them but they have no idea of how to really fight and they get away with a lot because of being Athletic or by Sucker punching or Just Swinging Wildly and Getting Lucky but when they Find themselves up against someone they as usual underestimated and something as simple as a well Trained Slip N Roll Shocks the Hell out of them they look for ANY excuse for a way out and people who know nothing think it was an AMAZING move or something because they are so used to seeing wild Flaying and then someone falling so they think it is like you are a pro or something when I just Did BASIC Head Movement and said Come on keep em coming and he goes ah your not worth it and I was not the aggressor so I let him walk away because I ABSOLUTELY HATE Confrontation to the point where yes he swung at me but I could clearly tell that I was the better fighter just from that and he wanted none of it after that. So that is how one of the Very FEW Street fights I had ended without me throwing a Single Puch Just showed actual Skill.

Being hard to hit is a skill one is born with.. it’s a natural ability that not everyone can do.. Everyone doesn’t have the same reflexes, senses, quickness, balance and SPEED..

[@Bobmudu35UK]

I'm related to a fighter known as the,Phantom of Philadelphia" He was quite famous. His style was hit and don't get hit. This sort of tuition is missing from a lot of boxing training. Two examples of modern fighters who are world class at it are Usyk and Lomochenko. Footwork is vital! Great video.

The basics I teach is slip, weave, dip, pull, roll, crouch

[@fuzzmanx]

I have scoliosis and what he says is true. Good slipping, ducking, and rolling shouldn't affect your back very much at all. It's all in the legs essentially. Your back may come into play with ducking and tucking your chin to extreme degrees (if and when necessary to roll some hooks), otherwise let your legs thrive.

[@aceofspades0996]

Add squats, lunges and skip rope exercises

[@genises200]

Could you make a video on Ricardo Lopez and his amazing jab? Also maybe on the new way of combos from the old ways of mike Tyson? A gym I spar at tells me throwing a 2 and moving to south pas to slip on my right side, is bad. However all there boxers I caught with this and end back up in Orthodox and have a better positioning. I start south paw and combo into orthodox and it seems like coaches dislike going to south paw but it steps me up in a great position to start off my rhythm and throw there's off

[@myboxingcoach]

That's a great suggestion on Lopez, definitely on my list. Different coaches have different ways. I suppose for me it's about explaining risk. If you try things and they work well then build it into your techniques. There will be risk, but there's risk in everything we do isn't there.

I never even seen a ghost, much less knock one out.

[@raygsbrelcik5578]

Those are, of course, the most effective, and economic techniques one can possibly apply. There are a couple little 'items' that can be added. I have always had Quick footwork---I've trained in advanced Martial Arts for years, even though I'm retired. One of the 'moves I employ is, a rapid RETREAT, where I quickly shuffle Back, trying to 'Draw the opponent TOWARD me; and just when he least expects it---I lunge forward with a Straight Thrust to either the gut, or, the face. This works better in the, 'Street, than it does in the 'Ring, obviously! A boxer Knows that little trick...but on the Street, most guys are not really Trained. The other technique I use is---Using the Forearms, and Elbows to Protect me against an aggressive opponent who is advancing for- ward. I hold them High, while peeking Through them. From that position I can toss ANY type of strike I choose, and then initiate whatever type of footwork I need at that Split--second. What you have shown here is Universal---It will work in ANY situation, IF a person PRACTICES enough. Well done.

If I’m in a street fight and the dude is throwing mad punches and rushing be constantly what should I do to not get touched

[@raygsbrelcik5578]

@@Lapolitics Most 'Street dudes' do not use their feet. What I have trained for, is crouching very low---and VERY quickly, thrusting the guy to the ground. As he's falling, and confused, I throw a quick punch to either his gut, or his chin. Another technique I have gotten good at is, lateral movement. If you are quick enough, when a dude is throwing wild, continuous punches at you---Quickly side-step, and strike down HARD and VIOLENTLY at his arms. You're bound to cause considerable pain to his arms, which will deter, and distract him enough for you to either Kick the guy, or give him one Good, Solid, fight-ending Punch. There are other techniques, as well...But those are a good start. Training is everything! Good luck.

from coach to coach , iam not fine with your backfoot ... from my pov you take the risk to getting punched out of balance ...my advice if someone arrives in my school is do enough stretching till you able to duck and roll while you feets be tight on the ground...there are enough situatiions were you play on tip and toes , but defensive rolling ,especially against a brawler , your done this way... ok iam 40 and i feel my back my knees and even strechting is more an more work ,the older i get , so maybe its according to your age ...but in this special point iam not with you ...anyway rest of your vid is pretty solid :) so thumb up
