I think it would be a very therapeutic sport. I actually know someone who does MMA fighting. I think it's kind of crazy to watch, and I would never compete myself. I would just learn how to box for fun. <br />Claudia Rosenburg | <a href="http://www.bancroftboxing.com" rel="nofollow"> http://www.bancroftboxing.com</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08528618579653814208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-9431194037698773562013-11-18T23:51:53.407-05:002013-11-18T23:51:53.407-05:00Very well said.

You're no good with a busted up hand. In Krav Maga, we train open palm strikes as well as using your fist so you get used to doing the techniques that way.<br /><br />Thanks for the great post.Chrishttp://vegaskrav.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-44866461614148804962013-08-21T12:56:57.870-04:002013-08-21T12:56:57.870-04:00This is so interesting blog.

A good crisp jab is sometimes all it takes to convey the message "Don't mess with this rattlesnake, there is easier prey in the meadow", without having to pull out the firepower. <br /><br />Ducking can still be a valid technique, provided the elbows are kept in and the head is up so you can see the strikes or kicks coming in, although like you say, it can be risky. I particularly like how you can incorporate bobbing and weaving with strikes at the same time.

Bobbing&weaving is still a valid tactic against a hook, aslong as you weave towards him, stepping in while you do so. If you end up more or less to his side a knee is out of the question, if you do it wrong and stay in front of him he'll still be able to nail you.<br /><br />I fully agree with you on your list of reasons why boxing is a great art: what I love about boxing is the power it generates while offering maximum protecting and optimum mobility. As you said it flows (nice, crisp combinations while constantly moving and defending/covering) and is so much more effective than the all or nothing, sawing-type forward punches practiced in karate. As you said it also integrates easily into other systems/arts, both for sport or self-defense purposes, and when you add some dirty tactics and some grappling you have a very potent, tough and easy to learn fighting system. <br />For the street boxing needs to be modified though: fighting with gloved fists and bare hands are two completely different things, in defense it wouldn't make much sense to catch a punch on your hand as you would on the glove, plus standard boxing-gloves are like little shields you can hide behind. Still the basics apply and a good boxer will be hard to beat in almost any circumstances.<br /><br />Great post!<br /><br />ZaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-84400236347068416122009-08-20T21:12:24.612-04:002009-08-20T21:12:24.612-04:00my trainer always says practice practice on your j...my trainer always says practice practice on your jab he trained over 50 years ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-49611736073135605132009-07-25T19:00:55.662-04:002009-07-25T19:00:55.662-04:00Nathan.

Some fighters, say Chuck Liddell, tend to rely on his deadly right on his left hook. But there are many, especially in the lighter weight classes, whose jabbing is constant.BBat50https://www.blogger.com/profile/09736054246852300843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-11010546816152463552008-08-03T08:02:00.000-04:002008-08-03T08:02:00.000-04:00Well said, Anonymous!Well said, Anonymous!Nathan at TDA Traininghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12591449449393592676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109323.post-54594705345795303682008-07-30T12:22:00.000-04:002008-07-30T12:22:00.000-04:00Right!Right!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
