I tried this in sparring and my coach was yelling “stop showboating and keep your hands up”😭

[@ANDYSUPER15]

Yo that's funny as fuck yall

[@sharinngan5084]

[@alexong2542]

There's a difference with amateur boxing coaches and professional boxing coaches. Amateur boxing coaches teach you by the book. They're the old school types who drill the foundations of boxing into ya. They're good , but not all of them are qualified to coach a person in professional boxing. A professional boxing coach is more than just a coach who teaches you boxing. He studies the art of boxing , he's there to make you a better fighter by realizing your true potential. He teaches what suits you the most.

Boxed for twelve years, and I gotta say I wish my coach was as clear and pedagogical as you are. Amazing stuff! And glad you told people it isn't for rookies. Philly shell is very damn advanced.

[@Dee7nine]

I love when I have look up new words - pedagogical

[@vivianbutler5851]

Really good stuff bro.......just to add one element you missed but I'm sure you already know, probably just forgot or didn't have time to mention... is aligning your shoulder up with your opponents center thus minimizing his line of atttack, while at the same time positioning your body to execute the shoulder roll more fluidly...All the best keep the real shit coming

[@diversealkebulan6425]

Vivian Butler on point

[@mikewright902]

He did say or cover that by saying its a defense. And not for rookies $$ the position and\or style is a movement, And flow. He tried to hit main points . but that key too!!!! The video could have been longer! !!Haha

[@TM28080]

I'm a south paw who does kickboxing....I love this defense, I use a long guard and mostly try to control distance but against pressure fighters and whenever they close the distance its natural for me to go into a philly shell. I like the way your broke it down, subscribed

[@Hansome1877]

For some reason when I spar in Taekwondo 🥋 I use a philly shell 😆it helps a lot , now I am not a boxer it’s just happens for me to have a stance naturally and I didn’t know it was a philly shell so when my opponent execute a round house kick to the body I block with the left my right arm remains on my solo plexus I could easily block higher for head kicks . 😆 thank you

[@Sway187]

ChipChip Kung kung super kick Thats dope lol im starting TKD and im gonna try do that too

[@kempbrown2381]

I came from a TKD background also, the Philly shell feels natural because in TKD you fight completely sideways and there's no way to keep your lead hand up comfortably from there

[@dasfreshyo]

I fought TKD, sport martial arts and trained (never fought) Muay Thai. My natural stance was a Philly Shell. It worked for me. The orthodox guard guys i fought didn't know how to deal with my counterattacks.

[@ThiefiBug]

[@victorcabral5531]

Awesome coach, could please make a video about the peekaboo style, especially on the defensive part of it, mike tyson is one of my favorite fighters.

[@stothep1987]

i recommend watching hajime no ippo. the main character's style is the peek-a-boo and as a boxer I can attest to the accuracy in the footwork and defense and most of the offense of the peekaboo style.

[@victorcabral5531]

Thank you steven

[@Krishna135ful]

I dont get the difference between the philly shell and hitman style

[@DANVIIL]

Floyd Patterson was one of the most famous practitioners of the Peek A Boo style. Cus D'Amato was his trainer and coach and I think Tyson learned it from Cus.

[@KingOfTings1]

Krishna Bahadur hit man it’s super loose compared to philly

[@sheliaaustin2800]

I just did a zoom with coach Anthony. If you have been practicing and starting to get stuff, I would suggest trying a zoom session because he gives you all his effort. It felt like a legend was giving me his attention. It is unreal.

[@tasogare6598]

Recently switched to boxing from karate, I am used to fight more sideways and this philly shell type of stance is working wonders for me in defense. I never would have thought that I could parry a boxers jab(always knew it was hard) when I was actively fighting in Karate type of tournements. Amazing stuff. Always thought this style of fighters were being just cocky not knowing anything about it. Now I know why they do bc this shit is working. Coach pls post more about this and keep up the good work

[@ronschlaeger9227]

This is the best explanation of this I've ever seen. And the disclaimer at the end that this is not the thing to do if you're new is right on target.

[@pinkydavis6113]

Lot's of respect for the coach, he's a natural teacher...

[@michaelcosme5560]

I watched many of your videos, you have a gift for teaching. I've learned much and the stuff you cover and the delivery is quality.

[@mjolnir9855]

Absolutely awesome instructional. I know there’s some top boxers who have never been dominated because they mastered this for defense, wore the opponent down, then started attacking a weary, weak opponent.

[@southpawkick-boxer2229]

You are a master of explanation this is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I already know where to look for more tips

[@SeyidAr]

I feel like this is a genius and creative way to defend yourself. Your entire body is essentially closed up. But i feel like it takes guts to fight like this. I don't even feel safe with a high guard, imagine having to guard your chin with your shoulder. Whoever came up with this stance is a genius.

[@blainermiller]

Best breakdown of the Philly shell I have seen...awesome work coach!

[@patronabavariae2577]

Shouts out from germany. I just found out your video. In my opinion the best on youtube prescribing Philly Shell Defense! Keep going!

[@timothythomas7445]

Coach Anthony. I watching this vid from London. Thank you very much for the schooling. I'm 54 in great shape buttttt still learning. As you know, in UK we produce far to many stiff Queensbury Rules fighters. So stuff like this is educational to us.

[@broadwaynicky]

When I was sparring with a friend (no boxing, 4 years taekwondo) I instinctively did a primitive Philly shell during my second round. It worked much better than a traditional defense. I’ll be sure to practice this.

[@joegq2685]

Excellent. Been training for years and this stance has always come natural to me BUT I've just learned I haven't been doing it fully effectively (relying on head movement instead of bringing the right up to block). Got something new to practice in the gym now. Also respect to Fast Eddie Chambers. You were one of my motivations and probably the best shot of dethroning Klitcho during his domination

[@fastlifebmx9292]

3 years late lmao , but instead of blocking or head movement, try using your hand to paw his hand/punch down and maybe some counterclockwise rotation; your shoulder will internally rotate if that helps the movement explanation. There is a name for this style of blocking but I forget. Its very natural for me and works very well for philly shell. Instead of just rolling the shoulder and taking the blow (specifically for non glove fighting) and cramping your delt up, You can even put your arm up bringing your elbow to eye level or whats comfortable as a block as you roll the shoulder.

[@danwong5432]

One of my favorite frame set ups..thx so much for ur generosity in sharing👏👏💪💪🙏🙏

[@MarbleFoxGamer]

I was a teen during the 90s, and like most in my generation the neighborhood I lived in wasn't the greatest. Been using philly shell my whole life. Set me up for some really good knockout shots lol. I'm too old to fight anymore, but I stand by the philly shell.

[@djaceofpentacles]

Teaching my son, he's 10 keep in mind, how to just stand and here we are lol. Priceless for basic basic basic self defense

[@SM-my3qe]

I dont know if I’ve commented this already on another video... I didnt get a lot of sleep last night so memory is a little fuzzy right now! 😄 But I been following a lot of boxing coaches on youtube for a few years now and they all good in their own right. But you man... YOU! 🙌🏽 Stay safe!

I'm sure you have covered this and this is in fact the first I have heard of the Philly Defense but I see pure gold When I see a Strong defensive posture that can be utilized for potential offensive launch pads. This is Killer especially because I am unshakeable when it comes to preaching Defense first.

Used this style of defence in my first amateur bout a couple weeks back... I trained when I was younger so had a good foundation and this defense saved me! haha I didnt train for the fight at all only for one week so had noooo stamina at all luckily this style helps save energy without to much movement involved! If i boxed peekaboo style i would have lost cause i struggled to hold up my hands i was so gassed! haha was god fun tho!

[@rogerwilliams4742]

I mostly enjoyed using footwork and head movement as defense. Of course that uses more energy. Once I got comfortable with Philly Shell my confidence went through the roof. Countering from it was even better! It should go without saying to keep your eyes glued to your opponent and you get used to the additiinal contact right away. In fact I felt I could read my opponents movement better. Good stuff.

[@dannythompson2710]

"Probably one of the best defensive heavyweight boxers of our era" Very very well said coach!!!!

[@Kaydje]

Philly Shell is super nice for in-fighting as a south paw. You're already choking up their jab, you're already pivoting and strafing to get that outer foot, and no matter what, you were gonna work that lead left anyways. I like to close in really tight on the outside and sneak a bit of a dirty hook/push into the side of their head to see if I can knock them off balance - then it's just 2-3-2 from there and they never want to in-fight a southpaw again

[@uhuruallah]

Many thanks I love the Philly Shell

[@prod.mixtape3068]

For some reason I learned all boxing style myself 😊 I’m proud of myself I wanted to make my own stance but none of the defense was good when I think about my blocks theirs a spot open for a hit that’s why I use Philly but abit of tune just comfortable enough for me and it WoRKed I tried it in a boxing gym for the first time and it worked 😊 I was so happy when I left now I want to copy someone

hi coach what do you think about the use of the shoulder roll for a southpaw against an orthodox?

[@gringostyl]

look out for the straight right hand! haha its hard and awkward... box the straight rights or slip them and throw your straight over the top, walk the opposite way from their power hand and get your lead foot on the outside of their lead foot, definatly have to throw in more head movement and a mix of peekaboo and philly shell
