How to Fight: How to Block Tutorial

[lamichael19]

I would say stuff like go take a martial arts class or something for u guys who want really good self defense skills. but hearing anything about martial mechanics is better then nothing.

[Maggotsolider777]

Well if your about to get jumped, by all means, kick em in the balls. They are bigger pussy's for trying to jump you.

[BBrian48]

try moving to the side to, you dont always have to block to get a decent hit and be in the same place

[imreallythefat1]

5 steps to beat a knob like this., step1, punch in the gut. step 2 killer wedgie. step 3 take a swing for his mate and watch him run. step 4. put his red hat on,step 5 pick him up and finish him with your favourite wrestling moves.

[TheKingOfComedy22]

i bet 10 bucks while u r doin ur lil routine u saw off of a chuck norris thing, i can beat u senseless!

[BosnianBoYayo]

foot in chest is most efective way of coming trough defense :D

[adem1000000]

@BosnianBoYayo yea a good teep kick or something sudden like a backfist will fuck you up for sure

[deadlytrap71]

6:01 elbow advice best advice ive ever heard yet so simple

[nerdsacklicker]

this information is shitty and made up dont hope all over the damn place just lean and lean forward so that your knee cover your foot remimber combos

[misterawsome100]

i would try to bounce his fist off my arm so that hes off balance after the punch

[Lars1540]

I would love to hear what he has to say, but I can't hear anything in this video. Too much noise.

[spoticai]

I noticed that you kept your fists balled while blocking the "haymakers." That's a little counter intuitive don't you thing? Wouldn't it make more sense to use an outward extended block with your hands open? That way you can rotate your hand, grab their arm, and pull them in for an inward elbow strike to the head.

[youngsaracen]

Seriously, this stuff is so bad. Against any bjj that guy would be slaughtered. Helmet block?? WTF? Yall gotta look into Hwa Rang Do for serious shit.

[thickcocogrl79]

good vid but bad sound still great

[jiersk]

if you wanna bock, do wing chun

[mr3secondz]

i really really need a teacher to teach me all those thing and thank FightTipvideo

[badkid1357]

i have a few questions. What if the person aim for your body instead of your head? Since the head is the most likely targeted area, is there a good technique to block against punches to the ribcage or stomach?

[IggleMyWiggle]

@badkid1357

Yeh mate, keep your hands clenched at your temple, with your elbows in like your squishing your boobs together, chin up, mouth closed. You mainly want to remember to keep your arms in a V shape: Elbows meet at the bottom of your rib cage, with your clenched fists open at your top of your head (keep them open so you can see)

[liteduke72]

this makes me lmao!

[AppleSwitch101]

if u are fighting anyone with any sort of martial art background, even the lower belts or begginner boxers/mma, the helmet guard will only get you several broken ribs. however if u r fighting an average person this could be effective. just remember mma is quite popular now so your opponant may have knowledge enough to destroy you if you imploy these techniques... not hating or anything, just letting you know. also you lose sight of you attacker, and a wrestler could easily shoot on you a well...

[TeddyLove69]

i dont care about the quality dude great tips good work.

[chris251287able]

shut the fuck up for fuck sake if this is how u street fight my 1 year old nephew wud beat the shit out of u he dnt block or fuck all just run up to u n smak u unexpectedly thts wt a street fight is unexpected not havin ure skinny rat of a mate to stand there n pose how u tel him to n wen to punch ure skinny as hell id pik u up throw u on ure head then stamp on u make a video on how to block a 16 stone ripped guy doing tht to u then ill take sum tips off u peace out

[DARKERSKINNY]

@chris251287able i think thats not very nice, shane and his friend are showing the techniques so people can follow, if you want to see what happens if you use this in a street fight watch boxer beats up 2 chavs, one turns round hits the girl hes with he goes straight in no hesitation, guard up, bang jabs his chin he goes down then the next wise guy is backing off, hes in the flight mode, or run away ode, but he cant urn his back on the boxer, he gets floored quickly. unexpected and real now stfu

[chris251287able]

@DARKERSKINNY seen tht ages ago tht aint always what happens u cant practice techniques for a fight cos everyfight is different u dnt rehearse a fight different things can happen u dnt get 2 idiots like these practicing this scne 100times be4 recording it to make it look real u dnt knw when they will punch tht video they r 2 of the biggest muppits going hitting a women for a start and u can see they cant fight ders sum hard men out there and u dnt rehearse when they cum n kick the shit outta u

[DARKERSKINNY]

@chris251287able i didnt mean you rehearse exactly what your going to do, but there are basic attacks and if there hard im sure they can punch correctly, thats what makes them hard, part of it at least, so learning to block jabs, crosses and evade haymakers etc, does come in handy, and learning to fight back is a big part of it to, get the technique right and your at an advantage over alot of untrained hard bastards. im not saying your not right but practice and insinct can save you combined. =]

[chris251287able]

@DARKERSKINNY i see where ure coming from i wasnt been a jerk by the way i may seem like i come across like tht but i didnt mean tht i just thought u ment rehearse a fight etc

[DARKERSKINNY]

@chris251287able no i was just saying if someone throws a jab or a haymaker its basically the same thing in any style, may be more wild if there untrained or really angry but if you can see what there about to do block, even if you think they are faking it doesn't matter, cover up good but footwork is crucial too, blocking isnt enough, if there faking step back anyway as you cover up, or cover up and pivot your body from the waist and maybe come back with an uppercut if you go low down.

[DARKERSKINNY]

@chris251287able what im saying is yeah all fights are different, but if you are pretty sure what there gonna do eg kick you or headbutt or punch or grab, then knowing how to block or evade this through training does transfer to all physical confrontations. its fine you did sound like u was being a twat but i know what you mean too. watch some of shane's actual fights and you will see exactly how it works in a real fight, ye its sport and has rules, but it works outside the ring too. :) ttfn

[burtonpunch316]

@gyptice Just try your best, not looking for a fight here LOLZ

[RverBoo]

@omargoebuum69 even if he is a foot taller than you punch him in the solo plex. If you punch him hard enough you will wind him and he will be on the ground gasping for air

[tbushnell]

thanks helped alot had someguy harrassing me to fight him n watching this and just practicing those on a bag really helped alot

[kenpachii100]

LOL

[burtonpunch316]

best spot to punch someone is their foot so then they cant walk or their ear so they cant hear

[gyptice]

@burtonpunch316 how the fuck are you going to punch someone in the foot? the fight must be going pretty bad at that point if your on the ground close enough to do that.

[piker2007]

I disagree with guilotine chokes lol they hardly ever end a fight and put you on your back to get smashed!!! If they shoot you sprawl and make them pay... Trust me street fighting is different then being in the cage right ? Head control and sprawl don't ever pull guard in a street fight guys

[piker2007]

@saberman, if they move forward constantly throwing punches? Change levels and double leg them

[SmArTiEmArT]

@piker2007 orr if anything if they try to take u down, try to pull a guilloutine

[imthe1ful]

good work.

[Demonic569]

You should add subtitles to this vid, hard to understand what ur saying at times.. Great vids regardless tho. Thanks

[Xiaodhanan]

dude ur videos are awesome man ..dont care about he haters bro,, all ur videos are awesome..

greetings frm singapore :)

[RunescapeUtber]

That really annoying background noise makes it hard to understand you sorry :(

[Damon3700]

Hit the nuts that's all I gots to say

[RoyalCaoCao]

Hitting the nuts is easy.

But we have to break through the enemy's defense.

[dragonstone111]

@Damon3700

ya but most guys won't do that because it's considered a "bitch move" and u lose a lot of respect for doing so

[Damon3700]

@dragonstone111 yea that is true

[ARROWW13]

what if your fighting a girl?:)) u get your ass ciked?

[saberman41]

how do u stop a guy that throws really qucik and hard punched even when u block a hit he always has a fist going at you

[RoyalCaoCao]

Don't let the enemy have the first hit.

If you can't avoid it , run backwards until you are in a safe position.

[kovo42]

the best way to win a street fight is to run away and get a bread knife. they have serrated blades and even if you can't use a knife properly, it'll do a lot of damage. just don't let go of it.

[mangoodvid]

fuck off

[LoosaFace]

What? These guys actually do know what they're talking about.

[adamlewis157]

get a better camera

good vids

thnx

[antoniown]

i am so good at blocking haha last night i showed my friends and i was blocking 2 people at once with 1 hand for each it was pretty cool they barely even hit me haha we were only doing body shots though

[hishamudai3]

Man, we got not ime to do that in a real street fight cus when they come to beat you, you just act crazy, you don't remember anythin.. Understand me..

[softangel5]

Street fighting is different from MMA fighting it's true. So if you've fought in MMA and then you fight in a street fight, then you'll remember what you've learned. What i'm trying to say is that a mma fighter would win becuase he trained for a good fight, and he remembers stratagy,etc. Haymakers don't, they only try to get lucky shots.

[eowJose]

@hishamudai3 You can try training your mind to stay calm in those situations, I've learned it, it's hard though, it takes a while to keep yourself on check

[twistedf3ar]

@hishamudai3 yeah thats true i just put my hands up and move around in like 30 sec there winded then you can start from there

[dakes25]

@hishamudai3 i think thats why you practice man lol

[hishamudai3]

@dakes25

lol it's done, now am used to it looool, nothing to fear if u can kick ass ;)

[dakes25]

@hishamudai3 haha

[catman1233]

@hishamudai3 dont get too crazy...like throwing punches everywhere..praying to hit the guy XD

[moro0130]

@hishamudai3 pretty sure the point of these videos is to stress the fact that learning these techniques will cause u to apply them when "you just act crazy" in a fight, without knowing it you'll be blocking and slipping punches and owning ppl who have no idea wat they're doing but "just act crazy"

[Zho0m]

@hishamudai3 not quite true... ask your friends to slap u when u dont expect, to train your reflexes... after u train that well, its pretty easy to block in a real street fight and you dont act crazy ... at least it worked for me ... ;)

[bobjoemagee]

@Zho0m *slap* not fast enough

[bobjoemagee]

@hishamudai3 no, you revert to your training in times of stress. train to cover up and you'll do fine

[xWorIdAtWarx]

@hishamudai3 Thats why you have to learn to control yourself

[hippoyell]

@hishamudai3

That all depends on how much you practice before it happens and how second nature it is to you

[shin1300]

@hishamudai3 i guess your right but with the right training and experience you can remember those things >:D

[archangel8323]

@hishamudai3 actually if a person is going crazy to come at you in a fight just keep moving and tire them out lol. alot of street fights end up being grappling and throwing eachother around only landing a few blows in and there. endurance counts when facing an opponent who thrashes blindly. and if you can't remember anything you have learned fighting, the problem is that you haven't conditioned yourself or practiced; that is the key.

[jakxcombat]

@hishamudai3 I know man, fights are all just a blur for me lol.

[BunnyBUNGALO]

@hishamudai3 thats how untrained, and untalented fighters fight. thats why you dont "just act crazy" think defensively.

[andrebading]

@hishamudai3 umm it depends on the person!

[MegaGamerRO]

@hishamudai3 lol

[Jevnike]

@hishamudai3 You right, I got jumped by these 3 assholes and I tried to run off and got away, but when Icame back with my 2 big brothers, I got my 1v1 with one of the kids and i remembered these guys videos and nearly knocked the kid out .

[pblakey2003]

If you want to learn to be very effective in self defense, learn Kenpo, Karate, Judo, and wing chun. trust me, if you master some of the moves from each of these martial art styles, you wont have to worry about trying to block because the fight would be over quick. Trust me, I never been in a fight more than 20 seconds and never lost. I contribute that to my teachers and training. one of them was trained by Professor Gary Dill who was one of Bruce Lee's original students.

[DarkessDays]

work your clinch i no ur talking but u want the clintch as tight as u can....with ur forearms along the jaw and neck

[MrSuckmydck]

how do I block an uppercut?

[zack84500]

either put your arms together in front of ur jaw/body r dodge it if u see it coming

[falling0331]

stick your chin towards his first:) then you wont feel anymore pain, lol

i joke

if the uppercut was to your chin/head, close up ur guard so the fist can't thrust up, you can also step back because uppercut to the head wont go foward. close up ur forarms, or pad your chin with ur hands.

if it was to the body,use the full length of ur forarms to cover you kidney and vital points.

[pblakey2003]

move out the way! never stand in the same spot, never get in a rhythm. that will make you predictable and very beatable.

[08sparky08]

put your elbows together?

[antoniown]

use ur chin

[gabino92028]

alright man you know how to teach very good but it sounds to stadicky but your tips sound very good!!! i like it!!!!!!!!!!!

[armysniper100]

do any of u no where to tale defence clases ??

[kurozeo]

the explination make it looks so easy but its not, you cant really apply it to your oppenant in a real fight. its a whole different situation .you have to adapt the techniques into your self reflects. it takes years to have that level (months if you train hard)

sorry for my bad english

[kustompr]

thats right man

[hotpopcorncake]

gud vid mon

[revengerisgmail]

god vid :)

[whydoitypethisinlol]

i've seen fights at my school.

and i have a question, what if the guy throws punches like a maniac? he threw haymakers and jabs but he fought poorly. how do i block them fast enough to just get him off guard and fight back?

[darkhatir]

well u can just fade away from him and make sure your distance is just perfect that he wont hit you.. just dance around him and use him momentum against him, (e.g he missed a punch,he might take a few miliseconds/seconds to react back,take that opportunity to strike)

[Nietsro]

Take him down early, before he goes ad/hd on you

[arnie066]

I would block the first punches and don't walk back while he's doing it. Try to stay close with him and (thai)clinch. From there, take him to the ground or knee/elbow him. But thats what I would do.

[iamaGod357]

i cant hear u

[dollerklause]

Nice, your videos have inspiret me to get in to fights, and with the knolage gained from your videos i have now tranformed my body in to a leatal weapon. That i use to inflict my will apon random people i find , as I roaming the streats, in a blod rush fuled by these grat lessons in violence. cheers

[hexxuh]

your fervent pursuit in these videos made you miss 3rd grade english, thus you can no longer form proper sentances without putting letters in the wrong spot.

[dollerklause]

Are u trying to get in my pants ?

[dogiem]

i love ur vidss and i hope 2 c more of them

[bjarczyk]

Your videos are great. I hope you become a professional trainer someday.

[bdog66656]

This Is a Sick Channel, I LOVE IT !!

[jwpwns]

when you remake this video can you talk about defending body shots?

and also make a video about telegraphing punches

[mohammedjwd1]

hahahahahaha on 6:57 to 6;58 sec is so funny

[11asidehero]

lol yea i see what you mean

[witegetobro]

the quality of this vid is pretty bad. its hard to hear and its really pixelated.

[FightTipsVideos]

Yeah I'm really sorry about that. It was the location we chose. I am most likely going to remake this video.

[11asidehero]

oh thanks ok kwl

im guessing cauase of the audio

you could always put subtitiles

5 stars

[PhaseDynamic]

@FightTipsVideos please do the information here is very valuable.

[Yndiax]

@FightTipsVideos any chance you're gonna remake this?

[punxz18]

they need donations for a clip mic and an HD cam

[thedman016]

lol you gotta be in top physical condition 2 move that fast punches are fast and u need2 move as fast as the punches not all of us are in that kind of condition

[kingdomheartsKH1]

U say these guy are pussies i ebt all u guys can't even do shit

[soupisgreat]

The audio could be better.

Other than that, informative vid.

[joshlbrewer]

Hey guys I love the site, and I hate homiesdontknowaboutsparta but thats a different issue altogether

[Freeystyl]

i mean show me 1 good video where you can see blond guy fight lol ! didn't ever see them if you can see some post it on you tube lol !

[DoomRater]

Apparently I can't post links in a Youtube comment because it instantly get deleted. Which is a bullshit maneuver on YouTube's part actually.

Just check out the videos with Shane Fazen in it. That's the blond guy.

[Freeystyl]

yea you're all pussys to listen to those morons .... they are just repeating what they heard from their coach, they only know theory but they don't know how to use it in reall fights. lol ! reall fights aren't slow like those guys are showing here ... get real !

[handsomegorilla]

yea! real fights are super fast just like the day of defeat video you have.  fps computer games are the best way to learn self defense!!!!

[Freeystyl]

lol dumb ass wana see my diploms and medals from judo and jiu jitsu ??? lol we'll see about playing games then ;) and yea i play games in my free time, is there eny problems with that? jsut stfu fatass i don't watch jiu jitsu on you tube, i do that in real life ! i'll make 1 video just for you, oK? reply that !

[DoomRater]

You've got to be kidding me. You're throwing around judo and jiujitsu credentials like they mean something in striking. You're making the same logical error you claim Juno's making!

[yieldingbamboo]

are serious? this is about as gritty and realistic as it gets. newsflash: EVERYONE repeats what their coach tells them, because everyone learns from someone.

[Freeystyl]

lol yea but if theyy wana make some video they coul at least show some things how they really are ;) not with just talking lol ... i bet their coach don't just talk with them rofl. they could show something more interesting !

[yieldingbamboo]

they were just showing so you could grasp it. go on the guy's profile. he HAS fight vids!

and as far as "interesting": you might be confusing real life self defense with movie fighting.

[pearchris]

Your a otter idiot. ALL teaching is just repeating what someone else said. Your teachers are only repeating what there teachers said. and Fights are only fast because the idiots fighting do not know how to fight.

[physcoticweirdo]

lolwut? If both people know how to fight the fight should be fast. Who wants to make a fight last forever. That's stupid the longer it goes the higher your risk of getting hurt. They should be trying to end the fight as quickly as possible so they can make their escape before they get a serious injury. It's not a kung fu movie lol. OH NO I GOT INTO ARGUMENT ABOUT MARTIAL ARTS NOW THIS WILL NEVER END. Because martial artists are the most stubborn ignorant people alive ;).

[aladinthemonkey]

Hey that makes me angry, rabble rabble rabble

[MickyChicky33]

Hey, I'm a martial artist and I'm not stubborn. Also, everyone is ignorant of something, it just means that you don't know. And I agree with you on the fact that the longer a fight lasts the higher your for injury gets. And also, I don't see how anything you said might have upset of a martial artist, I think you were just trying to call them out.

[physcoticweirdo]

lolwut?

[MickyChicky33]

you were calling all Martial Artists subborn and ignorant. I just stated that your accusation was not true. But forget it, I was tired as hell and just bored so I decided to reply to your comment.

[venger]

You obviously missed the point you fucking imbecile.

[wexpayne]

I love the channel, but GUYS. Get a better camera please!

[clanvvars]

thx

[rkolegendkiller31]

Thanks for the tips

[XxXEM0BuBBleXxX]

lol first one here hm does that mean im a pussy lol just playin just wana know how to fight better
