How to Fight: Intro to Sparring for Beginners

[bengreenbadger]

Good hands but you have a lazy back foot dude... work on your feet. Good vid though.

[ProtohTypX]

You know what's funny...I didn't really start to understand my shadowboxing until AFTER I started sparring hahahah

[DARQMX]

The skinny kid has some good feetwork he is def a boxer although I would say he should sit on some of his punches a bit more and not drop his left hand as much he is pretty damn good, more impressed with the feetwork tho. Are you amatuer? Or?

[AccordGTR]

this is actually very helpful for me because it talks about the process of learning how to box with another. thanks!

[AccordGTR]

I'm a beginner...why do you recommend 16 ounce gloves? I use 14 ounce

[DJFaNNtA23]

@AccordGTR Use the ones you feel good with.

[skateboardbeast]

Hey take a look at my sparring video and comment please

[MrMarc231]

The white kid is ok. But the big guy is a super noob.

[meelustrike]

WOW dude can fight !!!

[1234NAna12]

Both suck

[megarealjamaican]

allright you all can open a gym

[DanielWozek]

what a joke

[FullMoviesForYuu]

thanks u guys so much for the tipss

[zjtheman]

i'll knock both of you guys out.

[TheLilPimp112]

Casenater93 what if you o for a tackle and he throws a right hand and shatters your jaw you can't go in trying to get someone who knows how to fight on the ground

[Happyiceman87]

i bet that u guys pland this

[TheFightClubers]

Bad romance in the background. REALLY? Nice though, love the video.

[CTSANATOMY]

ive seen chicken fights that are more entertaining then this

[MrMustangman5]

how do you fight someone older and bigger then you

im in gr.8 im 5ft4

he's gr.10 and 5ft9

[newageofpk]

@MrMustangman5 1 get someone to get your back like a big 9th grader if your from the hood get him jumped

[SAExGRAFFITIx4EVER95]

Wat tha he'll was that

[ihaveskinandyoudont]

keep those "off topic" comments like "i don't work my biceps." comeing, without that idiots like me will never know of tips/tricks like that.

[gfvizc]

These dudes need to learn that boxing is for sport not for a real fight. Use these techniques and you'll get your ass handed to ya unless it's someone who doesn't know at all how to fight and throws these powerless, wreckless haymakers you can see coming from a mile away.

[saymikehawkfast]

if you want to justify doing biceps you can think of it like this. MORE MASS  * MORE ACCELERATION = MORE POWER

[geewizard97]

Wouldn't it be a lot different without gloves? What I mean is you wouldn't be able to block in certain places because you wouldn't have the surface area of the glove. You know what I mean? It seems like in real fighting you do more bobbing and weaving and footwork than you would blocking.

[brandeezy108]

@geewizard97 you can still block with open palms and close it when punching. opening up your palm will add a little bit of surface area.

[Aftermath5745]

nice vid how can I learn to be more elusive?

[doggishfool]

fuck you guys have big hands

(joking by the way..)

[terga1]

Well i have to say...Sparring with different categories doesn't work that good...i train boxing, and i'm in the -84 kg class (16 year old)...and when i do sparring with a lightweight, let's say 66 kg i just can't get to him...i mean i'm quick but he's like jumping around always. I can't do that that good but my punch is a lot stronger then his and my hand tehnique is much better...but when going 50% you just can't get to him...unless u hurt him later :D (sorry for bad english)

[KONIStheGREEK]

@terga1 well.. i train every day on kickboxing. i know its a lot differend than boxing but..i am 72kg and i ALWAYS sparring with ppl 80-90 kg ... they train for at least 1 year and i train for 3 months. I m faster than them(as u said cause i m lighter) but as we all know on sparring u work ur technique and not ur speed..So dont Care about speed or power on sparring, cause u dont wanna prove to the other that u are better than him, u MUST prove to ur self that u are good on techn andSMARTfighter

[terga1]

@KONIStheGREEK Well said

[pararata]

ha. the fat guy has nothing to do with figthing :P sure hope he watched at least your vids after this lol no offence , but he realy sucks in everything that you guys were doin' there

[12lacy34]

Fuuuck, i dont wanna learn how to box jeez.. i wanna know how to throw something at somebody and get it over with.. jeez.

[byronkyron12345]

I love all the youtubers that think theyre pro fighters. You ever watch yourself sparring or fighitng on camera, you'll learn your not as good as you think you look, that is if you actually train(which I doubt).

What size are those blue gloves? They look humongous!?!?

[stoopidn00b]

more entertaining than the Mirko CroCop vs Frank Mir fight

[Hayashirice911]

your partner looks a little too flat flooted

[otlyer]

both of u cant fight

[eW0c]

great vid man

[GoldenChildFFt]

5:33 your friends footwork.. his feet are way ahead of him while he is backing up and not under or a lil bit behind him.. just constructive critisism .. i think that coulda woulda been a knock out in a match, but of course this is sparring though.. u guys did good though

[GoldenChildFFt]

4:13 and other parts in the video.. why does he keep his chin so high

[TheMw2Matt]

Ok, how about someone keeps punching you and going foward? How can I block and fight back?

[slayer9234]

@TheMw2Matt Just move into him.

[Lambretta1995]

overhand? is that mma?

[crabcakejake]

i don't like to brag but i actually have a beer gut and i watch ufc andddddd i pretend i know mma. - Roadhouse

[damyouz]

good.

[junkdog772]

Man i wish someone would fight me like big man in this video ! hahah leave me that chin up there and ill put you to fuckin sleep ;)

[lxTwisteDxl]

@junkdog772 lol, i doubt you're as good as you think if you're watching a video called "Intro to Sparring for BEGINNERS"

[oofooh]

@junkdog772Give me that big guy and I'd be throwing shots into the top of that big belly- fold him like paper.

[junkdog772]

@oofooh Amen bro.

[oofooh]

@junkdog772 You couldn't keep my strikes away from it: solar plexus, liver, kidney- like a body puncher's buffet!

[xoenhit]

why go to thailand?

[ScorchinBeats]

Great video guys, any tips on fighting guys that are bigger than me?

[minipfi]

if they grab your shirt with one hand and they are punching you with the other hand, grab their punching hand mid hit with both hands and twist that motherfucker til he cries, then beat the piss out of him

[AjfromDamons]

You don't lift weights because those gloves are so damn big haha,

[DoomRater]

If there's one thing you really needed to tell that guy though, it was "Chin down, change your level more". This guy stood straight up and had his head level, clear noobie mistakes. Sometimes the most obvious things just slip right by us!

[allasnark99]

va gjør du viss han tar tak i balla kan du gi meg noen tips. translate this page in Norwegian

[dixon572]

Du legger deg ned i smerte, når det er over tar du han.

:P

[champ4lyf3]

hey what do you do when someone tries to do that hockey fight thing where they grab your shirt and start swinging what do you do

[FightTipsVideos]

@champ4lyf3 Hey, search my videos for "fighting off your back"

[gr1mreaper25]

@FightTipsVideos Im thinking with the big bulky gloves don't they cover more and cushion your punches? like when you do fight with your bare hands it would be unprepared for the fight especially when the guy throwing the punches is bare hands as well? Feedback on this.

[casenater93]

@FightTipsVideos palm strike their chin jaw or nose then get them in a wrist lock and go from there, knees, submission, takedown, anything to end it fast

[ms1b1]

@champ4lyf3 try jujitsu or akido

[DmakAttack]

@champ4lyf3 Fight back...fukin pussy. Hit him in the nose, in a downward fashion. HARD. over and over.

[lmpetuous]

@champ4lyf3 hahaha

[emal510]

get a new fucking camera

[birdfly43]

yea better training bear fist however only use jabs and shit that helps a shit load with your gaurd thats og course onl if you traning for the street

ive been boxing 5 years you learn to guard with the gloves of course however when u street fight you think that you have your gloves on that can really fuck you up

[SteVeYG215]

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[DoomRater]

Not that bad of advice IMO. There's a way that looks very similar both gloved and ungloved, and if you're really worried about hurting your hands you can always use some MMA gloves, but it's not a bad idea to double check that things work once the gloves come off.

[valiantfocker]

Man your videos have really improved over time! Good stuff!

[Cen2050]

this is very impressive...It's REALLY nice to see someone with experience helping a less experienced fighter improve rather than just see someone with skill shamelessly beating somone down. I can tell you're friends. VERY nice control and technique. This was an overally REALLY impressive video.

[linhoab18]

haha 16 oz is for pussyyyys xD

we are training with 8 oz :D

[FightTipsVideos]

@linhoab18 So you get injured before your actual fight?

[linhoab18]

no we get prepared for our actual fight :)

i didt wanna diss you I think it's better for you when you lern to handle some pain but maybe there are just different training methods in germany :)

[SteVeYG215]

omg your so tough!

[KONIStheGREEK]

@linhoab18 i m training with 10 oz... i cant wear 8oz.. so that makes me pussy?

[Hayashirice911]

@linhoab18 You do notice that although you can hit faster with 8oz, you lose mass, so in reality theres not too much difference in how much power there is behind it. mass x speed(velocity) = force(momentum)

But seeing how ignorant and how insecure you are about being a "man" I'm guessing you go all out during your spars and chip your teeth now and again.

Video: I'm sure he's better now, but your partner tends to drop his hands a lot and his footwork can improve a lot(sometimes he crosses feet)

[kimanthonydavid]

@linhoab18 you're gonna get hurt

[sasukemoores]

love the videos keep em comeing :D

[jayboxerj]

Nice vid bro. You commit nice and have great composure. Considering how green you friend is you still can tell how skilled you are. You can tell you have been trained well. Your friend should learn how to pivot so he could catch you when you come in. Nice vid and did you go over seas to fight yet?

[FightTipsVideos]

@jayboxerj Thanks, man. I just ordered my plane tickets for Thailand, going in May.

[doggishfool]

@FightTipsVideos Do you have anyone record you actual fights, just because that would be cool to see, like everything your teaching (almost) in a real (semi-real) scenario if you know what i mean..

[GiBuffalo14]

@jayboxerj hey man, good advice, i happened to read this be4 starting the video, and i picked up on his mistakes u pointed out. but what exactly do u mean by how green he his? im relatively new, so if its like fighter lingo (ill admit, that doesnt sound as cool as i hoped it would), mind cluing me in?

[FightTipsVideos]

@GiBuffalo14 Green = new/not much sparring experience

[antiwuss]

@GiBuffalo14 green means raw like a piece of fruit is green before it ripens

[armymansam]

YOUR SITE IS HACKED... it leads me to download a trojan when i click on a video.

[123yankeesfan123]

sure the gloves are big enough? joking , nice vids and tips!

[FightTipsVideos]

@123yankeesfan123 16 oz. Gotta do it.

[FanUltimate]

the blonde kid is very cute.

[FightTipsVideos]

@FanUltimate I thought he was pretty handsome, myself.

[lilsean616]

@FightTipsVideos Lol I've been a subscriber for a while now, and you just made one of the funniest comments I've seen. Idk why but that was hysterical

[blackbear313]

@FightTipsVideos haha wow dude ur great

[Joeboxer89]

I agree the guy on the right is hott especially gloved up, hope they do more.

[SteVeYG215]

Wait hes hot gloved up.....what?

[reviewmaster007]

[FightTipsVideos]

@reviewmaster007 yeah, the other one was messed up. Sorry.

[reviewmaster007]
