[Theshofumiah1]

LOL, his gloves are like 40 Oz

[youbetterrun77777]

no talent...

[playgroundpervert]

tis is the worst vid ever

a fuken hard enof punch can nok u dawn

or break ur sholder

[Dazmx]

@playgroundpervert break ur shoulder lol

[bye5225]

isnt that rolling with the punch?

[xEviLProductionsio]

Although the kid isn't blocking it right, nor doing the shoulder thing right,But  thats the technique Mayweather does except he executes it better.

[Path2Knowledge]

@xEviLProductionsio well not everyone is a floyd mayweather, the guy would be dropped with the left hook with that defence

[855FIGHTER]

Thats not blocking,>>

[esagil1996]

AND IN REAL LIFE A GUN WILL MAKE ABIG HOLE TO YOUR EMPTY HEAD

[shamel132]

nice jeans coach !! teshhhhh

[monkeyfights22]

ya both there stance was pretty gay after that str8 right the guy was open for a left hook an upper cut and other str8 right an then a jab he'd get drop in a real bout

[italianmatt16]

horrible form

[Cassandre1986]

My sparring partner does always that exact thing. I have never been able to touch his chin with my right. I would like to know how to counter that block ! Pfff

[opticannon]

@Cassandre1986 fire to the body after throwing the faint with that straight\ jab. do it after you pivot with the feint and pivot back with it with your body weight behind it. most importantly it will give you the possition should he fire that straight as he slips youll slip the counter naturally and catch him with his hand out there. watch his footwork too if hes rolling like that he probably has his feet planted. get it started by circling him to whatever side. sp or orth. slip in combination

[Cassandre1986]

@opticannon Thank you for your time ! :-) I'll give it a try.

[opticannon]

@Cassandre1986 no problem, let me know if you were able to capatilize. most importantly tell me if he adapts, i want to know what hes thinking.he might stay out of range cause you knocked him on his ass lol. or rush foward to smother you with a clinch or combo. either way hell be terrified of the faint, jabbing all the way to keep you at range. then thats a different story.

[lavoetime]

Para empezar tu Boxeador esta mal parado, pero despues de eso que sigue, ese es un JAB , que hay de 3 o 4 golpes seguidos

[RonnieRambin]

that seems like a setup for a big left.

[monkeyfights22]

@SONNE5 actually floyd dosnt do it like this at all he rolls his shoulder this guy is rasing his shoulder an leaning to the right where he can easily be hit by a left uppercut floyd wouldnt make that mistake!!!

[Makaveli25x]

nick u fuckin idiot pay attention. the guy is doing the shuolder roll even tho the dumbass coach didnt throw no punch at him. fuckin idiot this is not how you learn. and the dumbass coach kept throwing the punch at the same speed almost like a beat. nick that faggot did the shoulder roll because he knew when the punch was coming not because he saw it. i wanna punch him in the face

[t10h190]

@Makaveli25x nah dude it was a flinch reaction, the guy moved so the other dude did the deflect.

[JonathanShelton1]

I wish i would of known this before i fought the other day lol thats a good deffence.

[charlie861174]

dylan u use ur shoulder to block punches from hitting ur chins beacuse if u didnt kno chin is possible the worst place to get hit beacuse a good punch will end up with u getting k0ed lets see ur boxing guild then we will see who has less good defence techniques best counter bolo guys train it hard u will be rewarded

[DylanDGI219]

dude you arent supposed to block punches with your shoulders. the first thing you are taught as a pro boxer is to wear your opponent down with punches to the wrists, elbows, shoulder, and body first. its called putting money in the bank. i would like to see you try to fight 12 rounds while taking all those right hands to the shoulder. you wouldnt have a jab left to throw considering your arm would be falling off from that kind of punishment. you either slip or parry a right hand. simple as that

[rdnmonge50]

@DylanDGI219 i do it all the time?doesnt floyd mayweather also do the same thing?and sergio martinez?

[abruno23]

garbage :)

[what2086]

i think this guy needs to learn boxing before giving tips on how to counter,look at the way the guy trys to slip the punch first off you bend your knees when you slip a punch and if you not diping then you stay low and roll your shoulders though i dont recomend that for anyone its hard to dominate the only ones that is really a master at that i floyd mayweather and that is not the only way of countering punches.

[silkydee2009]

@what2086 - he seems to put his glove over his eyes as well when he blocks, good night when the left comes

[what2086]

@silkydee2009 yea very true

[MurkThaKilla]

the guy defendings technique is bad. Hes bending at the waist not bending at the knees to balance himself properly. Cuz if the punch had power hed b knocked off balance. n hes turning his head so he doesnt see wats coming. bad bad bad lol

[comedicstuff]

This is why boxers should punch in combination. Yeah, they can block, duck, slip, bob/weave or roll 1 or 2 punches, but if you throw 3, 4, 5 punch combinations, some of your punches will get through.

[comedicstuff]

Yeah, Mayweather uses this technique and blocks with his shoulders, with his chin tucked. If he's cornered, against the ropes or if an opponent is advancing on him throwing pounches. Mayweather uses it in conjunction with his shoulder roll - which he uses to deflect punches and counter.

[BOXERNATE1]

you shouldn't really take punches to the sholder because there going to be sore later on in the fight and you wont be able to use your reach much, maybe just for the pocket.

[timstramadal]

nice vid dont listen to these assholes

[one2energize]

classical boxing eg. mayweather

[jtrubilla]

mayweather isn't a classical boxer. He's defensive, but not classical.

[GregYong]

wtf an orthodox shoulder bump? what the hell is the point, his stance is horrid too; 1 star meng 1 star.

[SexyRobo23]

Lol @shanedfoalima. I 2nd that!!

[Redsiix]

Epic fail

[shanedfoalima]

Did you guys practice that in bed last night lmao........

[jonnyg1267]

it would work better if you slip to the opposite side and the guy is open for a left hook right?

[BOXERNATE1]

@jonnyg1267- yeah thats beautiful if your fast enough lol

[581011ali]

@jonnyg1267 I agree, you should usually always slip to the outside. The 'opponent' in this video just set himself up to get knocked out cold by a cross.

[BoxerSonnyboyWatts]

@jonnyg1267 hes showing you from hes angle if you change angel you can let off different shots it all depends on were you are at that moment in time but i wouldnt recommend doing what he does as hes elbows are out better off just slippin it or moving out the way as someone with skill would take you out after seeing what you do once

[Tom4everLordNL]

@jonnyg1267 Yes he must slip to the outside of the body most effective way to counter in that situation.

[jonnyg1267]

this just looks like a retarted version a slip

[tdjakes121]

this is just one of many defensive techniques that work well if done right.

[ALEX32369]

that kid is retarded as well as the coach hahahaha sch sch sch sch sch hahaha u only do that when u punch hahahahahahahahaha noob

[ws2family]

lol... the fuck..!?

[chillalol1]

why is he ever say if he get punch shchc schschs schshcsh schschs shcshchs schsch-.-

is he crazy xD

[tortugoo]

breathing u ingnorant bitch

[BoxerBoyMartin]

you have never done boxing have you? its ok moron.

[WennieBoy01]

hahaha! slightly gay stance dude! lol

[sand9012]

this def works if it didnt mayweather might not be where he is at right now if it didnt

[BLaCkKsHeEp]

@sand9012

what? PBF's shoulder roll? i guess this is a variation of it, but the real shoulder is different.

u would kno, i think you watch PBF

[sonne5]

I think it's comical that everyone comments and says it's crap and they know better ways. This technique works if done properly, in the right situation; the defensive guy is also in a perfect place to throw an uppercut

 Swiss cheese trainer? Gay stance? Go talk to Floyd Mayweather, he does this a lot.

[what2086]

@sonne5 no disrespect on your post but floyd does it the right way and is probably the only fighter that actually dominates that style its good if u know how to do it but i wouldnt teach that to a begginer plus the defensive guy is bending his whole body and not using his legs or waist yo turn just sayin,peace

[D0oD0oBrain]

@sonne5 Mayweathe is scared.

[taoparty1]

I've used this in fights. Probably not what I should have done, but it worked when that fist came out of nowhere and he was stepping through my centerline.

[Lunafam1]

seriously how did this guy end up with a coaching license,imma call him the SWISS-CHEESE trainer cause his fighter got all kinds of openings,lol!

[poncekid56]

I disagree to this, doing this is just begging to get hit to the body... you should either weave, or catch the jab, folding under such a small punch will get you dropped.

[GangstaToughAss]

yo right that is a gay stance :D

[chengGer000]

Gay stance.

[rainingblood6969rain]

hows he gonna block the next punch hes playing peekaboo!

[SudoJudo1]

Useless, moving his whole upper body to avoid being hit on a 4 inch target.. Completely ridiculous

[LoganHankins]

its not a martial art. its a point based boxing match. compare it to worthless Tae Kwon Do tournaments. all they do is play tag. In boxing, and strictly boxing. wailing on a guy that avoids a hit like that is worthless. wont count for jack. notice in boxing... if u successful hit is landed, a split second decision must be made in order to continue the assault or to leave it at that. like in all arts. it could just be baiting u into opening. which is what counter punching is for.

[danceman94]

shows what you know boxers like james toney and floyd mayweather use the skill all the time

[kickboxer1391]

Good concept of using your shoulder to neutralize a blow, but this video shows the demonstrator covering his eyes. A left uppercut will definitely hit this guy since he won't be able to see it coming. Pretty much what everyone else is saying here.

[el1tefighter]

Way to put your cup on over your jeans retard!! Nick has no business demonstrating anything. It's sad when guys like this pretend they know what they're talking about and get someone hurt. A left uppercut would kill this kid after the right hand.

[orville247]

wtf that is not how you block a punch a to the chin. certainly it's not the most effective way to do it. you get tired out from bending halfway over like that sooo easily in a fight-- boxing is all about conserving energy. you slip past it, or close your wrists together (slightly less effective).

[bozez1]

Dude...you are going to get somebody hurt. Go back to your i.t. job and stop clogging up youtube.

[101sibbo101]

watch some james toney fights to learn how to block and counter punches. hes the best in the game at it.

[boxingcoach000]

Why not just pick your lefthand up for the block?Its right there shoulder cant stop all of the punch if it is thrown alittle higher.

[RMendiola4]

i thought this was just a low-guard technique. guess not~

[lighterhead]

i dunno i mean, nick looks so off balance. what if he followed up with a left uppercut after that jab?

[kmartshopper3214]

at 1:05 he took his head of his eponent ...never do that..wtf

[edwinerosario]

The thing you guys dont understand is that boxing was'nt intended for the street that is why the Marquess of Queensberry rules were applied other wise it would be mma. It is a sport that limits you to two hands just like other sports rules, soccer you can't use your hands... if a boxer vs mma is not fair because a boxer is limited to rules. I a boxer was'nt limited then he would no longer be considered a boxer he would be a mixed martial artist.

[TylerDurdenK7]

@edwinerosario Very intelligent comment.

[rob7613]

@edwinerosario but the better thing about boxing is boxing is more simple and the clean punchs and mma/ufc is a annoying because of the grappling and the deady elbows and that stuff shode be left for street figthing because that stuff is design for killing peolple it shodin be a sport

[poiquilotermo]

@edwinerosario Again the same stupid conversation... so don't learn MMA because you can use a sword so you are fucked up. And take care usind swords cause I can point you with a gun. Ah no wait, I have the nuclear detonator in my hand so dont use nothing...and take care cause I am goku so forget about everything. Every style is beautiful in it's way, the more you know the more beautiful things you know, and one more thing: In MMA you earn a shit in your face.

[TylerDurdenK7]

@edwinerosario Very true, still he would not possess the grappling skills and submission knowledge of an elite mixed martial artist. There is nothing more classy and technical than Boxing. And there is no competitional proving ground as pure as MMA. But when it all comes down to it these fighters and boxers are warriors! they deserve equal respect and honor.

[TheManGuyDude]

@edwinerosario or... a muay thai fighter.. a boxer that uses his legs too..

[JohnnyBoyCali]

@edwinerosario Yeah but in a real one on one fight an mma fighter would destroy a boxer. Once the MMA fighter clinched or went for a takedown the boxer would be screwed.

[WatchTheLeftHook]

@JohnnyBoyCali unless the boxer also knew how to defend a takedown which is pretty easy under hooks legs go back and stand that bastard back up by the way im a great boxer and watch mixed martial arts alistair overeem, fedor , brock lesnar, anderson silva, cain velasquez so i know about both boxing and mixed martial arts and trust me if you get me in a clinch i will know how to watch for elbows knees and all i would just uppercut yo ass

[didiiscro]

@JohnnyBoyCali thats if he gets the takeown and doesnt get knocked out before it. If. What if the boxer knows MMA? Or Muay Thai as well. All this hypothetical bullshit. What if Mike Tyson fought Paquaio???? if this, advantage that.

[unknownally]

It is a hard technique to use. You don't simply use it right away. You need practice. Once mastered it will play its part. The time will come when you need it, young grasshoppper.

[sonjaxfactor]

lol..you box?

[Zerithogora]

what IS THIS CRAP?? this doesnt help at all!!

[Concretenjeffro]

and then i throw a mirco crowcop left fuckin foot to your face and see if you can block that

boxing died when mike tyson stopped boxing

[RapidNova]

which also cause your remaining braincells to burn right? Which in the long run had its own effects, like the ability to make up shitty names for a kick my lil sis wouldnt find difficult to deliver. Well fucking done!

[Concretenjeffro]

I Hope Your Really Agreeing With Me Cause I Could Mangle Your Face

Dont Try And Tell Me Boxing Stand The Slightest Chance Against MMA

[BrooklynRican08]

Like you're really gonna throw a kick when a guy is standing face to face to you ready to fight lol

[Concretenjeffro]

Yeah I Am.

And Im Gonna Try To Break Ribs Or Your Head And Your Arm If Its In The Way.

Its Proven By Science That MMA Fighters Hit Harder. Hard Enough To Break Ribs And Bruise The Heart With A Single Kick

[BrooklynRican08]

Stop making up things..."Proven By Science" Dumbest shit i've heard today. This was never proven by science and can't be proven by science being that there are many people in MMA and Boxing with different levels of strength.

[Concretenjeffro]

You Might Wanna Search Fight Science On This Site So It Can Tell You The MMA Fighters Punch Harder And Kick Harder Then Any Martial Art Because Of The Position Of The Stance {MMA STANCE NOT BOXING} And The Delivery From The Foot, Through The Hips And Out The And.

Not To Mention If You Lean Forward In An MMA Fight Your Vulnerable To Kicks And Knees

In Boxing....I Guess Its Okay To Lean Forward.....What A Fucking Joke LOL

[BrooklynRican08]

Umm..buddy...MMA wasn't the first to bring kicking into fighting. Kick Boxing..go look it up. We're talking about punches not kicks. Obviously kicks are gonna be harder and obviously boxers are not gonna kick harder because they don't kick. Lets have some common sense shall we?

[BrooklynRican08]

And also..Boxers were known as the strongest puncher even on fight science showed that boxers are the strongest punchers.

[Concretenjeffro]

You right, but in that episode there was no mixed martial artists

that guy was a heavyweight boxer

punching at 993 lbs

quinton rampage jackson light heavy weight

on fight science punched an amazing 1800 lbs

[BrooklynRican08]

Punching is boxing. There fore he was doing a boxing technique. Whats your point?

[Concretenjeffro]

Woooo Punching Is Not Boxing

Boxing Is Punching

Before Wetsernized Boxing Which Began In American

Many Arts Have Had Punches In The Styles Or Form Dating Back To The Acient Greeks

[BrooklynRican08]

Boxing is punching and punching is boxing...lets be real. No point in telling me about history. What does boxing consist of? Punching...When you're only punching you're literally boxing.

[Concretenjeffro]

...When you're only punching you're literally boxing.

My point exactly

At least we Are Agreeing

[mace398]

lol if you train for mma u wont be as good boxing if you train for boxinf you wont be as good in mma i box i dont train mma but i respect it and i like watching it i just like boxing so thats what i train for

[SuperPowerMann]

what in the hell r u talking about

[diembiemphu]

xD xD

[silkydee2009]

@BrooklynRican08 - i see your point but boxing consists of a lot more technique wise, thats why they have names like brawler, swinger these are not technical boxers they're fighters.

[silkydee2009]

@Concretenjeffro - it began in england london prize ring rules

[Christian13131]

@Concretenjeffro theres no way rampage jackson could hit harder than shavers. u gotta be messed in the head if u think rampage can hit harder than him

[Christian13131]

@Concretenjeffro mma fighters punch harder than boxers? do u really think ufc fighters could punch as hard as joe louis? tyson? robinson? foreman? haha thats a joke. thats why boxers need bigger gloves, if we wore those little 2 oz or whatever gloves they wear in the ufc, thered be a knockout in the first round every fight.

[Christian13131]

@Concretenjeffro why dont u post a little video of this micro crowcop left foot kick or whatever this shits called

cuz i bet your ass wont

[BrooklynRican08]

You obviously don't watch boxing to think that boxing has died when Tyson was gone. last time i checked De La Hoya Vs. Pacquiao made 1.4 million ppv buys which is 50x1.4 mil. Yes...boxing has died. I don't see MMA selling that much. MMA is dying..slowly.

[MsVirtious1]

thanks for the vid, 4 real

[kendall999999]

wat da heck was dat!!!!

[saminadir]

thanks yesterday i went boxing the teacher kicked my ass
