You should do a series on how to hold for throwing the overhand while slipping jab inside. Pretty hard.

[@hemanthkumarupp]

can this work against southpaws sir?

[@elimuwinn9279]

Will she have to eat the jab to counter?

[@silversides87]

Just take your head off the center line. Often referred to as a slip jab or "slip n rip"

[@TheNadohs]

On the overhand counter? No, you still slip so that their jab misses the head.

[@Martial-Mat]

Why do people jab counter against a jab?

[@ns8013]

Human nature is what I'm told. I've only been doing Muay Thai for a bit but many people will respond with whatever you throw at them. So if you're in the clinch and you throw a right knee, many people will respond with the same thing, which means you can more easily predict what's coming. If you find the person you're sparring/fighting has that habit, it's pretty easy to set them up for whatever you want.

[@Martial-Mat]

@@ns8013 I think there's a stronger tactical reason than that though...

[@chosenone8964]

@@Martial-Mat of all singular strikes, the jab is the most efficient and effective As you probably know people use it to establish their distance and timing while also disrupting your opponents. And many times you’ll see repeated jab exchanges because each fighter is set on establishing their game plan/ ruin their opponents first

[@Martial-Mat]

@@chosenone8964 Very thoughtful response. Thank you.
