  • Crazy ass,footwork I need,to learn this

  • very nice!!. I like the drill. Going to tried to incorporate it in my class

  • NICE!!!! ima do that in my classes

  • Nice. Thanks!

  • great footwork...imo fast feet are way harder to deal with than fast hands

  • Hey, that's a VERY useful drill. Thanks! Never seen anything like it before, but then again, I don't actively train. Thanks!! I'm subscribing.

  • nice footwork.... but take a tip from your mate their and save your chest lol jk

  • @purvertedmunk That's like a girl telling J Lo she needs to lose weight. hahaha

  • @albertpope hahahaha if it works out for you that way then by all means, keep the hair

  • Like this good work.

    

  • was the second guy necessary

  • @Hollister1922est Yes, these drills are for beginners as well as advanced fighters, so I think it's encouraging to see beginners do it too.

  • @albertpope no actually the second guy is just distracting but thanks for the vid anyway. these drills are great.

  • @Hollister1922est LOL!!! I was thinking the same thing at first but alberpope has a good point about encouraging beginners ... it does look random though

  • dude, your footwork is unreal. do you have any videos of you fighting or sparring?

  • nice video bro

  • dominick cruzn' it

  • Killin it! Thanks

  • Excellent drill, thanks for sharing.

  • nice footwork bro...I wanna practice..

  • this is a great drill, it's really hard to keep count though, so i just set my microwave for three minutes and do as many as i can lol

  • It's Rocky Marciano!

  • lol you cant box.. you look like a girl and you dont have a guard..

  • awesome just came across your workouts i will be using them, i just started boxing as an amateur in march, so these drills will be put to great use thanks.

  • Nizee

  • Good footwork drill,he who stand still eats many punches! To all the haters,this clip is meant to be part of your training not to teach you how to box in 2 minutes.

    Time the footwork well with hard shots and your power is trebled.Good for evasive action as well as offensives.Nice footwork well explained.

  • They made us do that in my old martial arts studio specifically in Kuk Sol Won, this system had many techniques that involved switching, this drill is really good for that too.

    Man... they burn your calves after a few reps. THANKs.

  • I wasn't sold on this till the fancy footowork at the end. I was like whoa lol

  • Dude, you are smoothe like Ali. Very cool :)

  • nice foot work!

  • Seems like there's a bit too much going on here. Just shadow box while focusing on footwork.

  • so we do this for 3 mins none stoping ?

  • Do you have to do this everday? or just twice a week? like plyometrics.

  • We do this everyday at boxing training. Its good stuff...

  • can anyone tell me how many mins of these rounds ... reps in each round?

  • @smoochesmom1991 up to you... we do each one for a round 3mins... 30secs off then go again. We usually spend about 4 rounds doing footy work like this.. then 2-3 rounds of ring footwork just moving round the ring rolling under rope etc

  • Oh no! tennis shoes on the wrestling mat!!!!!! other than that, great footwork drills! I will practice them today.

  • great strengh in legs

  • If i were u, shooting a serious video and i see that retard making fun of me in the background i would have totally kicked him in the nuts...he is twisting his wrists like a girl anyways

  • the guy in the backround look like a aretard

  • Smooth turn man

  • don't listen to them everyone who is hating on the drill has probably never stepped in the cage or the ring in their life. watch ufc champ dominic cruz fight. he uses those footwork techniques to perfection. after you watch one of his fights come back and let me know if these drills wont work.

  • very nice

  • Great videos, keep them coming.

  • Oh true... You realize how effective this drill is once you watch the ending where he demonstrates why it will help you. Tyson had a lot of bounce in back in his prime. 

  • great video awesome foot work good drill effective move thanks

  • you guys didnt need to go to a gym to teach beyonces dance steps looks gay two shirtless fags switching positions lol.

  • @didiiscro in all seriousness, teach me how to be an internet tough guy...

  • great tips man! ive been boxing for 6 months now and these movements have made me faster on my turns! Thanks!

  • Very nice. Thank you....great movement :)

  • you can be a great basketball player with that quickness... thanks for posting, Im getting sick and tired of basketball and im looking for new sport to keep in shape. I hope u slow down in some of the lessons. ...good luck

  • Cheers for your videos mate. Keep em coming

  • Nice foot work bro! I don't care what all the haters say, being fast on your feet always helps! Especially for a 260lbs guy! If Im cornered and need to cut out, this will do! Thanks for the tip! Im going to incorporate this to my boxing workouts!

  • @didiiscro haha, speaking ofe no life.you just internet bashed 3 people in a row in one thread.the youtube comment section is a joke, one you are dumb enough to take so serious. clearly taking your job as lowlife internet tough guy very seriously. obviously everybody else knew i was joking.and obviously u mad. get a life bud. and your right.im so jelly of his lean physique.haha.fag boy.

  • @johnsonphil85 You were joking yet you responded and made points? ROOFFFFLLL I must have hit a nerve you just gave away that youre a fat pathetic loser no shit youre new to boxing as you've obviously a punch drunk fuckwit who got his ass handed to him on numerous occasions!!! on your way now bitch!!!! dont respond it will just show further what a fuckwit you are RROFFFLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Serious footwork, coordination and speed there. Impressive.

  • good drill...been doing it after i first saw this video and my corner cuts are better, and also it helps my over all footwork/balance and helps me get to positions faster to work my angles...thanks for the help...

  • well idk about everyone else here but i came here seeking advice not pretending to be a champ. but this looks pretty high speed.

  • hahahahahahahahahhhh

  • you are so fucking fast on your feet

  • GOOD DRILL

  • dude, u got good footwork

  • To those of you criticizing this drill, I have been involved in boxing over 25 years and there are a lot of "drills" you do to help in footwork, defense and offense that are not necessarily made to mimic exactly in the ring. This is good for footwork and coordination more than anything else and it's good to do. Just like when Roger Mayweather works the mitts the way he does, its not so you can go and box exactly that way, its to develop speed, defense and coordination.

  • beautiful!I like this dril!

  • Why am I very tempted to put this drill into use for kick boxing? Anyone?

  • where da fuck did the other bloke come from :/

  • i do this sort of thing while skipping, helps me with my timing and coordination as well as footwork

  • good tip man. =-)

  • im new to boxing...do you have to do this drill shirtless? thanks for your help

  • @johnsonphil85 Hahaha!

  • @johnsonphil85 hahaha

  • @johnsonphil85  ...only if you have Austin Powers chest hair.

  • @albertpope lmao

  • @johnsonphil85 if you had a life you wouldnt need to ask such a meaningless question. Who gives a fuck if he needs to do it shirtless or not. Also you must be a fat pathetic fuck and probably are threatened by his lean physique you queer fuck. Youre new to boxing, probably explains the numerous beatings you've had in your life. Bitch.

  • @johnsonphil85 don't do this is just shit

  • @johnsonphil85 Only if you're a hot chick.

  • @johnsonphil85 With my personal experience, I found best results by doing them completely in the nude. Within about 2 months I could actually hit people with my balls.

  • @JohnnyRochran u just cracked me up so hard...I shit in my pants... alright. time to get back to fucking papers

  • Please before you say shit about these drills try them first? and like he said in a month youl get faster. If your not going to shut the hell up. Thanks for the vid man it helped me.

  • Hahaha, guy in the back makes it look so awkward.

  • top drill boys 10/10, to all the shit talkers you think bouncing around the ring is bad go and say it to ALI all he ever did was bounce and he was only the greatest boxer ever, you guys have oviously been hit in the head too many times cause cutting the corner is one of the most important moves in any fighting, if you shittalkers are so much better at boxing then these guys post a video link to show us how its done or shut the fuk up

  • nice man

  • There is no way these dudes are legit boxers... if they are, I bet they snore a lot.

  • awesome vids. with that, subscribed. :)

  • Looking at all these comments, I think most people don't know what drills are.

  • Nice moves Ali.

  • good stuff!!!!this vid has def helped me with my footwork!!

  • alot of keyboard "experts"!!....commenting on great videos with great advice. post a vid of yourselves demonstrating your training techniques, share with us your past fighting experiences stating your mistakes and what you do to improve. great videos albertpope!!keep on doin what ya doin!

  • People - relax. This is just a variation on a drill that we all have practiced, just to varying degrees. Albert I can see your point in this drill. My only concern is the flashy turn out. It seems like such a big movement - too much energy wasted an an opening for a quick opponent to just crack you. what if you cut that movement/momentum in half? Just turn out on the back leg, spinning him around into the corner/ropes. That has worked for me in sparring and fights. Just another variation.

  • Seems like an ok drill. Does it make you faster to train without a shirt?

  • I HAVE MY GUYS EXECUTE SWIVELS AND PIVIOT STEPS INSTEAD OF BEING AIR BORN!!

    PEOPLE TELL ME NOW WHICH IS SUPERIOR JUMPING OR FEET ON THE GROUND ??

    I AM SURE THERE IS A DEMNOSTRATION OF MY PREFERED WAY ON UTUBE SOME WHERE ..

    COMPAIR AND YOU DECIDE .

  • @FUSSYMUAYTHAI Bouncing and Dancing around is good to a certain extent. Look at Muhammad Ali. His syle was to dance around his opponents and dodge all their punches to tire them out. The dancing makes it harder for your opponent to hit you because if you're moving around all the time, you can get out of the way faster and not have to put as much effort into slipping a punch. But you should never jump around to where your feet are this high.....

  • Looks like a good way to be punched out of the ring.......Feet to much off the ground.....Flashy but a dangerous move in boxing.

  • @leameyy - The point is not to jump high, but to stay low and compact when your feet leave the floor. Please don't say that you've never done, nor seen anyone do this drill? Do the set of 500 as a warm up everyday for a month, and you will get faster.

    If you can't cut the corner, you get corralled into the corner.

  • @leameyy haahhahhahahhahaha!!!

  • @leameyy just had a look at your youtube video you guys look like a bunch of little faggots and your tryin to tell this guy how to fight lol my sister would knock you out keyboard hero lmfao

  • @leameyy yea for sure right? lmao and don't move and you'll hit the ground even quicker...you win fights with footwork, don't criticize drills

  • @leameyy it's just a drill. you don't litterally move like that, the end result is that being a flat footed fighter is what will get you knocked out

  • @leameyy i'm guessing you haven't seen domonic cruz footwork?

  • @leameyy this is a very good form of exercise to become more flexible with the foot work, I do that just to warm up and get loose but yeah I agree not to do this in the ring. when you fight you must keep your foot on the floor and move diligently.

  • @leameyy yeah I know because youre the expert and your footwork is impeccable. Youre the best and have never did a thing wrong in your life. Ever!

    Congratulations, you are a first class grade B fuckwit. You graduated from just being a C grade fuckwit. You cant even be good at being a fuckwit youre that much of a demented cunt.

  • @leameyy dangerous move so how the fuck are you supposed to get away from your opponent then or get inside AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA you dumb ass mother fucker!!!!!!!!!!!1 You try to sound like you know what youre talking about but in reality you know fuck all. Maybe no one should ever move their feet in the ring. Fucking dumb cunt.

  • Can you please do a video demonstrating how you might use the final combination of movements (side step, switch stance, switch) against an opponent. I can't quite visualize how to apply the movement in a fight.

  • @TheLynch47 well son in boxing people like to move quickly around you and hit you from different angles, therefore you must be able to turn and defend/attack quickly

  • @HyperliteFoSh0, thanks. I'll remember to watch for strikes from different angles. When Albert does the sidestep-switchstance-switch, it looks (to me) like he does the switchstance side on to where his opponent would be... Which means he'd be presenting the side of his face to his opponent. That's an angle that I'm sure most people would gladly take. I thought that if Albert did the movement with an opponent I'd be able to see just how effective the movement is at getting around an opponent.

  • Good tip

  • If all you can take away from this video is " white people can't fight" then you have never stepped in the ring a day in your life or you are a racist. Either way open your mind, learn something, and become a better person.

  • fuck

    

  • dude... fuck u .... .this is too sick.. I loved it. lol Thanks man

  • ur videos help alot. thanks

  • This looks like a bad ass drill I'll be adding this one to my workout.

  • if you're gonna do a boxing instructional video, tip: don't do it in bare feet for fuck's sake!

  • @holmeslaw666 he had shoes on

  • dude, THANKYOU !

  • foot work is the most important aspect to boxing period, thank you very much for showing me this basic drill.

  • this is good work sir, i did my share of similar drills every damn day while fighting for the marine corps, and its because of these drill, i cut the corner for all my offensive attacks and most counters, and i havnt been knocked out yet. good work sir.

  • hey the guy in the blue shorts almost looks like marciano

  • you know when people leave stupid comments....what a bunch of ignorants!!

    Albertpope....man...you help me so much!!!, you certainly know what your talking about, great tutorials, keep 'em coming.

  • i think this promotes too much bouncing around in the ring

  • @mypsp310 Yes, bouncing is bad. I promise: this drill will train you to cut the corner without bouncing.

  • You are absolutely the best!!!! You helped me a lot! Your training is my bible! :))) This gentleman (562Krylon) has no clue about which stories. As far as I know, footwork is the foundation of boxing, because it goes from the back and legs. Best regards from South Eastern Europe (Serbia)

  • Great video, Great job illustrating the importants of footwork !

  • i think ur doin a wonderful job wid keepin the tutorial vids comin but cud u plz post another vid of "cuttin the corner" again.? breakin it down even more this time. i thot it was a lil too fast to understand, esp for a beginner like me.

    cheers.

  • i think ur doin a wonderful job wid keepin the tutorial vids comin but cud u plz post another vid of "cuttin the corner" again.? breakin it down even more this time. i found it a lil too fast to understand wats goin on.

    cheers.

  • do you have a video explaining the completion of this - the actual moving out of the corner part?

  • white people cant fight!

  • @562Krylon Thats not what the black dude on the bus in Oakland said

  • @562Krylon Im black but a lot of white people can fight too

  • @562Krylon Tell that to brock lesnar! LOL

  • why do you do the switch stance? Can you make a video where you break this move down? This move is soo! Deadly!

  • jesus, I can't believe the immature comments being made. That aside, these are very informative videos. Really appreciate your time spent breaking down these specific techniques.

  • Nice video your pretty quick

  • This is going to help alot for me being short n going up against tall ppl... thankx bro! :)

  • Footwork is important in every combat sport. I train Muay Thai but Footwork is very underestimated in Muay thai. I'm glad that there are people who upload such excellent instruction videos on youtube! Thanks!!

  • i dont care for this drill personally.

  • awesome

  • best instructional boxn vids iv found cheers

  • Thank you for the video.

    My trainer pointed out that I needed to work on my footspeed more. This drill will definitely help :D

  • Fun stuff! hope to master...thank you!

  • Tell your friend to train with sneakers on...or his shins going to mess up. Unless he trains on grass...witch

  • I can do this

  • Hey man, I just wanted to say that I really like this foot work video. I just started doing it and I can tell by how much fatigue I've gotten from it that it will do wonders for me once I step back into the ring. Thanks bro, keep it up.

  • f man! i wish i could move as fast as you.. scares me to just even blink.

  • lol look at the guy in the in the back 0.26

  • Yeah, he look crazy as hell.

  • hes tall and lanky so its prob more akward looking for him.. it prob looks dumb when i do it caz im 6ft 8 and lanky

  • @yafeuorphee hahaha looks like hes training to survive a knockout

  • your a fucking animal good shit bro!!!!!

  • hahaha wtf

  • i have no trouble doing that against sluggers but when someone is pouring his pressure onto me, i seem to not be able to go to the side. i can pivot out of the way but i can't keep doing that over and over. just this afternoon i got clocked in the head 3 times with hooks by a friend. what should i do?

  • Sounds like a good opportunity to counter punch. If it is a pattern you can identify, take 5 rounds of shadow boxing to simulate and visualize the exact circumstance. See if you can devise a counter punch defense. Your friend should land his punch on your glove and you should basically be running into the punch with your glove as a cushion between hit fist and your head. As soon as you block it, punch him with the same hand you used to block.

    try the 1-2 Dip drill

  • oh it was definitely a pattern i could identify. it was really dark and i have bad eyesight though. if i practice long enough and start watching some mayweather, i think i can pull through. he's very similar to ricky hatton.

  • watch paul williams vs. sergio martinez!paul williams is a long limbed pressure fighter.martinez handled it pretty good,got a little fatigued but he kept paul missing and his counters were beautiful.i think martinez won a close fight.

  • What I was always taught is that when a left hook is thrown at you, the best defense is to always roller under and step to your opponent's left(Which is your right).

  • weak? I never have... not to say it can't happen, but seriously; footwork is pretty important for not getting knocked out.

  • @albertpope im sorry 562Krylon but footwork is key if you wanna stay protected. you can be the hardest hitter in the world but without footwork you dont stand a chance against a real boxer.

  • @multimochafy true. Unless you got a powerful punch like George Foreman who just throws punches

  • @562Krylon you sound like you've taken quite a few concussive blows yourself with spelling like that mate.

  • @562Krylon this week or next week?

  • @562Krylon

    Clearly you don't understand training of any kind.

  • @562Krylon thats how your meant to train, u dont just hit a bag and hope for miracles 2 happen. Ive beeen involved in boxing for many years now and let me tell u, if u dont have great footwork and co-ordination then maybe boxing isnt for u.

  • @562Krylon You don't know what you're talking about my friend. You can't get an advantageous angle on someone without using this footwork. Angles are more important than practically anything else in fighting. If you think fighting is about standing in front of each other and throwing heavy hands you're the one who's going to get knocked out.

  • very great, very simple, very well demonstrated. thanks guys!

  • i think this video will help me improve my footwork. nice work man, its very appreciated.

  • this drill is what ive been trying to look for...

    great work... ill do this at school, at the c.r. or at the chapel... tnx

  • chale esta de aquellas

  • Damn this fool got mad squabbles haha

  • That looks like great footwork, I'm teaching myself some footwork drills, so its interesting to see this.

  • nice drill
