THE ORIGINAL JAILHOUSE ROCK!!! THE REAL ART OF URBAN BARE KNUCKLE FROM THE MASTERS!

GET ON OUR EMAIL LIST! [e-mail]
For many years people have asked me to talk about 52 BLOCKS-is it effective, is it from Egypt? Those questions and answers are not important to me. I want to, for the first time, show what the difference is between 52 BLOCKS and the ORIGINAL JAILHOUSE ROCK BOXING style used in the EAST COAST URBAN areas. I was taught this system my the best JAILHOUSE BOXER in my hometown. The style is much like a BARE KNUCKLE PHILLY SHELL that uses angles, slick punching varieties and spins to get to the enemy's back or side.
As a BONUS to those who sign up for my UPCOMING PATREON PAGE, all SUBSCRIBERS will get JAILHOUSE ROCK 101. In those downloads, you will start right from the beginning, learning how to make a PROPER FIST, The 5 PLACES ON THE HUMAN BODY WHERE the FRONT 5 KNUCKLES FIT perfectly as well as the best way to defend against BARE KNUCKLE PUNCHES. The 5 videos will give you a REAL look at URBAN BARE KNUCKLE the way it was done in the 60's and 70's EAST COAST.
Enjoy, Sayf Carman

As a guy who practiced boxing/martial arts for many years off/on I am FACINATED with "now" knowing the DIFFERENCE between JHR and 52blocks. Thanks for the knowledge 👍.

[@Z4U3398]

The footwork looks tight. The punches come from sneaky angles. I'm thinking this style could work well in restricted spaces such as an alley. Nice, very nice.

[@blackomega4061]

Sayf is one of if not THE most knowledgeable masters on youtube. This is some REAL wisdom from the man here. I always without a doubt learn something new from these videos.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Blackomega: Thank you brother! still learning though :)

[@DaMonStith]

Respect, Brother for sharing your knowledge and insight. I hope that discerning minds can see what you are saying and we can continue to learn more about the fight culture of our communities. With respect. Da'Mon

[@mythx123]

Thank you for this clarity. I do train 52 but had no idea there was a difference. I am very interested in learning more

[@thinkordie7292]

This will rock well with 8 limb arts. Any books or magazines on the subjects. I want to combine this with military combatives I learned at the turn of the millennium

[@Almosteasyese]

I wouldn't have known it was separate, but I like the offense and the deceptiveness. It looks like this style is looking to end things quick

[@codyjwoods]

I saw this in Dustin Poirier’s movement against Conor when re-watching that fight today, whether he was doing it knowingly or not I’m not sure. Another gold mine and thanks again. I love the grips after the 1-2.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

DP is a good guy :) like seeing him fight.

[@nickvdm7902]

He's got strange hands for MMA, always thought he'd make a great boxer. KJ noons vs Diaz is one of the only times I've seen hands like that and noons was a boxer pre UFC. I could see porier being taught this simply through being taught by a boxing coach too. It's become popular because it looks cool and gangster, doesn't imply you'd do fuck all but Kimbo Slice and Tyson used it so it implies some success when pairing with knockout power.

[@roninmethod]

Thank you for this video and for spelling out the differences between 52 and Jailhouse Rock.. they are too often treated as the same art, when there are some clear differences

[@NAKMEEZY]

Brother this is GOLD! Thank you.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

NAKMEEZY: Gentlemen THIS young man here is like a younger brother to me! Trained in Muay Thai before it was the flavor of the month. Still trying to get him to come back to the US and NY area to have my back lol. J, I will get that app this week. IA. On the other note, it was time to make the distinction. I have always gotten irritated with the umbrella term that did not fit. JHR was born from boxers who could GYM box, but were too"independent" lol to listen to a manager or designated trainer. Over all, they had good hands and could box with gloves. As YOU well know, when 52 has to slip on gloves, it gets lost against a boxer, because much of the "DVD material" does not translate when punches in bunches are being thrown. Great to see your moniker come through. Much to talk about.

[@lancejr14]

Thx for this one as a boxer I this one. As a guy in my 30s I would hear about this but I never met anyone who knew it

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

LBC Jr: Most of those who REALLY know it, don't talk about it because they don't want the BS coming from people who were not even born when it was being done. The basics will be included in the PATREON page as a BONUS. Those people who are local can arrange for classes IN PERSON.

[@nigelcox-hagan6820]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge sir. I had no idea the Philly Shell could be so versatile. In addition to the grappling, the horizontal block/shove and horizontal swing to strike multiple attackers reminds me of techniques I’ve seen in Filipino martial arts. I’m learning a lot from your channel and appreciate what you do.

[@dstevenson100]

I going to use that in my kyokushin training

[@tokenstandpoint93]

That's what people were trying to copy when I got into fights in Junior High and High school back in the 90's.

[@TheBlackKnightX7]

Can 52 techniques be incorporated in a fighting system? I personally use 5 of the blocks for basic punch defense. I believe that’s all that is needed to block basic punches the front and rear skull and bones, front and rear closed door, and uptown. Those block straight punches, hooks, overhands, and can block uppercut if you use skull and bones like the cross armed guard. I’ve also noticed Yoel Romero uses 52 techniques.

[@TheBlackKnightX7]

Also is there a correlation with crossed armed guard and 52 blocks. Thanks in advance appreciate your videos been watching for a while.

[@theloniusmonk1263]

Another excellent practical lesson. Thank you Mr Carman.

[@CrowdPleeza]

I remember reading that Jailhouse Rock was more of an umbrella term for various crafty fighting techniques known to be used in jail and on the streets. 52 Blocks and the Alto Shuffle would come under that umbrella.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

CrowdPleeza: The problem there is that JHR is NOT 52 and has very little to nothing in common with it. As someone who was taught JHR, I do NOT want them mixed up

[@kamo7923]

I appreciate this, I'm 22 years old training in boxing currently n I've been interested in Jail house rock and was told 52 and JHR were the same. Could u do more JHR vids so I could learn more about the style?

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Kuddy 233: I will look into that. GW

[@ZagoMugen]

I'm 56 and I saw people imitating people doing the jailhouse rock. These immitators would hold their left hand low and I guess they threw Cuban uppercuts or Russian uppercuts or that flip punch (upside-down hammer punch?), but I didn't know that these punches existed back then, so to my untrained eye, I thought it was a bbackfist. Or maybe to their un trained eyes, they thoght it was a backfist and so I saw right?

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

It all really needs to be taken seriously. Done right, JHR is a viable art.

[@derekmellino8316]

Love it! Thank you!

[@mandlbakr]

Thank you 🙏 please post more on the JLR and Archie Moore /Ken Norton style please!

[@rickson72]

More jail house rock please sensei

[@vibineli1369]

i’m not very skilled but from my observation it seems 52 blocks is defense focused (by the name obviously).but jailhouse rock seems like movement & incorporates the idea of bladed combat, seen from the uppercut being more of flick.

[@Domic462]

Appreciate this man. You are the realest

[@mr.xavierrises]

The stance reminds me of dwight Muhammad's stance.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

TO THIS FORUM: Some people ask me how I feel about certain people. I have certain criteria for my support and one of them is that the person NEVER says being on the ground is the best place to be. I hear a lot of names, but if they are talking about submissions in the street, I have no time for them. There are only about 5 people who I support (NO, I will not name them). The rest I do not in total.

[@nickvdm7902]

I liked how you displayed some unconventional punches and use of different parts of the knuckles, that's the type of stuff I love!

[@mzeeali8840]

That is street boxing. Yes I have been in the cell.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

mzee ali: You would not have to be in a cell :). I have been and both times were for "honorable" reasons. I would never be proud to have been there. It is a waste of time and FAR too many people have been given sentences that are criminal in themselves. One black man was given 75 years for driving a GET AWAY CAR in a robbery that involved a gun, but no one was shot! That 75 years was a CRIME itself and what makes it so bad is that none of these fake black lawyers are doing a damn thing about it!

[@bigscore]

52 and Jail house are the same from NYC.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

bigscore: NO they are NOT the same! Jail house rock is Bare knuckle Philly shell! It was created by BOXERS who could box in the gym and by going to jail and prison modified it to fit that environment. I KNOW! I did it and was not taught by people trying to say all techniques come from Egypt!!!

[@moneyisfreedom]

I ageee 100%, 52blocks came FROM Jailhouserock, it's a mix of JHR, Stato, Comstock boxing, the Alto Shuffle, knocking and kicking and Virginia scuffling.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Mars Mathematics Almighty: LOL! Too many names for me! Fighting is simple. I think its origins are in folk lore and attached to by black folks trying to find meaning and looking too hard. History has its limits. We have enough real history in that we make everything our own with a black favor. Claiming things came from Egypt or even slavery is not needed.

@@TheUmmahFightCamp I dont think it came from Egypt, but the Virginia Scuffling is where the skull and Crossbones came from. Other then that I agree 100% OG.
