Training Session: Teaching True Boxer Stance

[@shreysrivastava7651]

This video is just amazing, the way u r teaching and instructing is just phenomenonal and plus we get to see TBS in action 🔥🔥

[@retro3s]

we really are going to have to wait for his disciples to grow and mature in these mind blowing fundamentals. the marvin take over HAAASSSS BEGUUUUNNNN

[@Hans_Hamon]

Marvin Cook and Kevin Secours are both severely under-appreciated.

[@reggiedavis1788]

I would like to see Marvin Cook do a fight breakdown.

[@ntokozomtshali9439]

Hell yeah!!

[@bazzarificadventures5649]

I've been doing martial arts for 32 years now and this guy is a absolute legend! I would love to be coached by you man ! Love from Australia

[@peejuu]

Coach Marvin just dropped a whole lotta knowledge in under 30 minutes!

[@SalmanKhan-rj6wz]

Coach please post a video of you shadowboxing with all of your principles in play. Don't disappoint us.

[@insertgoodname4809]

Yeah man I just love to watch you move. Poetry in motion!

[@jerseyakses3367]

I’d like to watch that too

[@markmessi9020]

He already has it from 2013. Look those up

[@jerseyakses3367]

Daniel Sanchez couldn’t find those do you have a link? I ended up bumping into Guillermo Rigondeaux who I believe is using the TBS and can see a lot of the things Coach Cook is teaching and talking about except he wasn’t half stepping but can picture it if he did.

[@Celestialbeing21]

When has he ever disappointed. *Went MIA for good amount of years* I will wait FOREVER MARVIN.

[@forwhatitsworth483]

Outstanding video as usual breaking down the sweet science also it’s cool how within the first minute of the video your dropping gems 🤙🏾🥊

[@quiasnoorzad]

Great stuff!! Would appreciate more videos like this coach.

[@tapskill3]

Coach Marvin, your style of teaching boxing is truly out the box and none traditional. I'm a MMA Coach and I've watched your teaching Erick Paulson's students and l know Coach Paulson who is in my opinion one of the best mixed martial arts instructors on the planet! If you're part of that camp , you're an expert and exceptional instructor as well. This is excellent! Thanks for your advance teaching. Coach AL

[@ianedwards3482]

This really helps show how you would apply the TBS as you teach it in a spare or fight. Thanks, this has been very useful in fleshing out your concepts for me. Great stuff

[@theboltthrower8661]

Marvin is a perfectionist, he is in another level of box coaching. Salutes Coach!!!

[@providenceb]

By now he'd probably got what you were teaching him with his foot movements and upper body coordination, At the time of this video he was thinking about his foot movements and not the flow. Boxing is a dance you don't think about which body part you have to move first once you have the science of martial arts understood, it's a dance playing the chess game. Fighting must be strategic while in focus. Mr Marvin Cook you are a good teacher. The first think my friend taught me before learning the art of the game is how to straight and foot movements giving me proper balance while gaining kinetic energy and also saving energy. I am not a professional fighter but can handle myself if the situation arise. I do practice and workout everyday.

[@sulaymanabumalik6937]

jabbing on the move is so important, thx for the gem coach

[@J.Artistry]

U a great teacher man.. u helping along on my boxing learning /training journey immensely. I appreciate u forreal

[@hatemadness]

Hello sir. Do you have any video of yourself fighting when you were young?

[@Timonsaylor]

Really love that you're putting up new content, wanted to know if you're planning on putting up content around using the TBS for different strategies like in-fighting or counterpunching etc.

I love this video, thx coach! I'd also love a long video developing why you think this approach is not more widespread (you mentioned something about boxing now being about making money), what boxers you think embody it better, etc.

[@Funnykiid18]

Coach can you teach us how to generate power from the hips?

[@thomcelis5597]

This is pure gold 💯

[@BB80MA]

Nice camera position. Everything is clearly visible now. Tnx. I understand the Jab being in position alle the time wit this stance. I dont understand how to use the right hand en making combo's left and right from TBS.

[@Luci823]

Wow his footwork is beautiful

[@ssjsavant6855]

Where can we train with you Marvin?

[@andraeelijaah1615]

Where is the gym located ?

[@frostmageDMG]

Hey Marvin! Waiting for new videos, you really help to improve my boxing skills!

[@mattiasjohansson3631]

Is there an upcoming video about how to incorporate your style against a much taller opponent? At the moment I bob'n'weave with tight guard to get close then stepping to the outside of my opponents fireline before throwing my combinations. This is usually working but at the same time I'll get a pretty square stance and leave a couple of openings. Any tips on how to close the gaps in a "safer" way?

[@MrKeepnit100]

May we get a bit more breakdown on the hook footwork?

[@KryAON]

where you at coach? Missed ya. We need more of these golden videos!

[@ApexSpectator36]

Incredible teacher!

[@batmastersonful]

U are a talented man Mr Marvin Cook,👍👁️💫

[@crusoevanfloyd9888]

Loving the content couch could you do a video about slipping punches in the stance to set up counters with some good drills for it thank you and keep up the good work !

[@KingMJAH]

I think the idea is that you move with your feet instead of slipping

[@joed7299]

So basically this style is a default one should Fall on , as soon as they are finished with their attacks . Which means your opponent is never out of sight. with balance and correct distance you can avoid a lot of attacks from your opponent .

[@andyc1019]

That's what ive been waiting for, a full view of the footwork to see hiw the side movement should be performed. Ive been practicing the hide the rear foot stance, but the front foot i didnt realize how much its turned inward.

[@ryanbaileyboxing]

Good way to make your fighter cold 🥶 during a mitt session

[@getrelaxed3848]

Oh nice Marvin cook still uploads videos

[@springrolljacky]

Any tips for smaller guys against bigger/lengthy opponents ? Appreciate the vid!

[@andy101971]

beautiful footwork

[@mecavica]

Greetings Marvin, I have a problem when I'm fighting and when I get tired I tend to spread my legs too much and I'm trying to focus on the stance but in sparring it's distracting. Any tips? Great video keep it up💪

[@K2ThaPhukkinC]

Make sure you’re half stepping. Identify what you’re spending so much energy on, see if it’s necessary. Hard to identify exactly what the diagnosis is in a comment, unfortunately.

[@bazzarificadventures5649]

You can also get someone to spar with you and all you do is move but don't attack to get your foot work better. I used to have one day where I only used my right hand or another using left or even had my hands behind my back while the other guy was trying to knock you out lol it worked for roy Jones lol

[@K2ThaPhukkinC]

@@bazzarificadventures5649 I dig it. Restrictive drills/sparring are great. Forces you to use things that you may not normal gravitate to when you have other options.

[@mecavica]

Definatly trying out the retrictive sparring. Thanks guys 💪

[@peejuu]

Focus on strengthing your legs more along with your glutes knees ankles and feet work on strenght and stability and some plyometrics this should give you the base necessary to have legs that will be easier to spar with since it will be strong and stable and less of a hassle on your brain. Thinking expends a lot of energy so your stance awareness should come naturally before you even begin to spar.

[@kennethnguyen7379]

Can you do a video on different stances (for example philly shell or peek a boo) and how they compare to the true boxer stance or something like that

[@tapskill3]

I think you're on to something because l think l would like to see a comparison in every aspect of boxing. I say this respectfully. Coach Marvin association with Coach Erickson Paulson speaks to the legitimacy of his talent and skills. It would be nice to see one of his passed fights demonstrating his style in action.

[@Brespree23]

It’s be nice to see Marvin do a breakdown of some fighters that use good footwork

[@KryAON]

Absolute Mastermind!

[@marcoarana2773]

Coach could you make vids about how to attack the body in the tbs?

[@abnerlouischarles]

My sparring partner a lot of times squares in front of me and waits for me to initiate to counter. Even though I see the opening he already knows where I'm going to attack. How do I fix this ?

[@MrKeepnit100]

A closer look reveals the "1-3" the JAB is while MOVING LEFT, and the HOOK is when you simply "Step Down" i.e..step forward or 'in' to the hook.

[@brysenturner7756]

Love your videos you help improve my overall fighting style for MMA. But still do you have any advice on body shots it’s something I’m struggling with and I do not generate enough power to stun my Opponent thanks and high respects

[@wabbagaming2184]

wait why did you tell him to step his lead foot on the outside of your lead foot? I was always taught to step inside the lead when you entire the pocket.

[@yulawluu3377]

Mr. Marvin, it is the best that if you could analyze a recent video of boxing match (for example Ryan Garcia vs Luke Campbell), some typical moments in which what the boxer did right or wrong way. Thank you so much in advance

Are the pads a representation of someone's face? Or an opening?

[@alexd.3760]

yes, an opening to the face.

[@coachjohn310]

You can tell he's passionate about boxing

[@hardhitterove7899]

coach is there a way to see what kind of punch does the opponent throw

[@peejuu]

Yes there is but it comes with experience it's better to move your feet and have your opponent in a position where the probability of him throwing a punch is a lot higher than him just being in his natural position it's like chess you have to try and set up the other guy to fail and footwork plays a huge part in this along with experience and discipline. You don't actually see punches but you kind of feel (and set him up) what a guy is about to throw especially if you follow your own game plan and ignore his.

[@jerseyakses3367]

Is it just me or the TBS stance is a less wide Karate stance focus on fighting behind the Jab with no hopping and boxing movement and boxing mindset??? Cooks mindset is Golden especially how much he pays attention to the footwork very smart coach but I just wanna know if I’m the only guy who see that? (TBS comparison)

[@vinsukakannangara5389]

This man is awesome...I wish Eddie Hall hired him for the Thor fight. All fundamentals. Some things which even the best boxers sometimes lack. However Marvin I must ask, how are the best boxers in the world not always technically correct ex: Wilder or Dubois?

[@tinocharalambous4573]

Those fighters rely heavily on a few things and it works for them 90% of the time, against average or maybe even good competition but no world class and eventually if a fighter can take advantage of those they get exposed seen by Tyson fury when he fought deontay wilder and Daniel dubois recently

[@K2ThaPhukkinC]

I wouldn’t put to much thought or energy into the anomalies. They tend to be the types where they would be where they’re at regardless of what they adopted. Case in point, imagine Deontay Wilder with both his freakish power coupled with great boxing ability/technique/form? Im not too familiar with Dubois, so I can’t speak on him.

[@zachariahz]

I think the basic answer to this is that elite level boxers and up can do things that would be insane for other people to try. This is true in any sport. It doesn't change the necessity for fundamentals, it just means some people are good enough to break the rules and succeed. People always want to approach combat sport/martial arts training as if -they- have the same capabilities as the best in the world. Most of us don't, can't ever. So going deep into fundamentals is where it's at, instead of trying to reinvent the wheel based on professionals who are anomalies.

[@yunggouki4582]

@@buzzi5644 I see, but like I was telling the other dude not everyone lives near a boxing/mma gym. You can learn by yourself but the process maybe a little slower. You’ll basically get all the training you’ll get in a boxing gym except without mitt work. I’d say buy a small mirror and put it in your room practice basic punches in your stance. Shadow box outside where ever you are. Work on side steps, half steps ect.. and find someone that knows how to fight and spar with him for a bit, and if he doesn’t know how to fight just have him throw punches at you and you just focus on defense. I’m not a boxer wizard by any means but I do know how to fight(on a basic level) but basic is good enough for me. Even at a basic lvl of boxing you’d defend yourself against the average asshole wannabe tough guy anyday.
