  • all about the southpaw

  • @chrisgrinhard Thanks man god bless!

  • @eduardinho777 try this drill.

    first stand in front of a mirror,get into your boxing stance, now throw a straight,cross,hook,jab.

    practice doing this punching with only one hand, KEEP YOUR OPPOSITE HAND UP/NEAR CHIN/NEAR JAW, READY TO DEFEND.

    Now switch sides and do this with the other hand.

    drill for 10 min each hand.

    This will teach you to stay better guarded against counter punching.

    Try this when you spar with your sparring partner.

    GOOD LUCK!

  • @eduardinho777 I'm not a pure "boxer", I mean I have over 8 YRS boxing experience(training,sparring,a few street fights), but I also train in multiple styles of martial science so ,again not the "pure boxer"

    but, my advice is that you might want to do a better job of angle your stance,tucking your chin down so its protected by your lead shoulder.

    Also, do you lower your opposite hand when you fire your lead,straight,hook, or cross?

    DON'T....it makes you vulnerable to counter!

  • @eduardinho777 - BTW - I was going to say that if you're getting knocked out and hurt "several times" during sparring then you should take Smokin' Joe Frazier advice and look for another gym because your trainer isn't really looking out for you.

    But then I looked at your homepage and noticed you have a video of two kids street fighting. So if that's how you're getting hurt, well, you can't fix stupid.

    Get to a gym and learn from a pro. What those guys were doing is total garbage.

  • @eduardinho777 - Sorry for butting in, but...

    You get more immune mentally from getting hit, but it's not a great way to develop physically. If you want to develop a strong core then there are much better ways to do it then allowing someone to hit you in the gut a thousand times.

    Forgive me, but your question is wrong headed. Don't think about developing the ability to TAKE a shot, instead develop the ability to avoid ALL shots. In the end, no one wins in a slugfest, except the audience.

  • @Trigun337 Hey man thanks a lot I've heard something like that to.....can u get more immune to punches after getting hit?

  • @eduardinho777 Try Strengthening Your Neck. You Cannot Exactly Strengthen Your Chin, Per Say, But Having A Stronger Neck Will Allow You To Absorb Punches Better. This Guy Actually Has A Video Saying This. Just Look For His Vid Talking About Having A "Granite Chin."

  • I wanted to know if there was anyway I could improve my chin cuz I've gotten knocked out and hurt several times....somebody please answer

  • @bstosnbata well first, the head is little too far for a powerful left hook to land effectively, second, even if the left hook lands, it will land somewhere close to the top of his head.
