There are no real downsides to the D'Amato Shift. It's a method to use when the ropes form one half of the trap - so the enemy has nowhere to exit. Or the corner. That "beat" is not a flaw; it can be used as a defence because you are coming off-line (escape from jab?). It is a tactical weapon which should be used correctly; that is all. The only real negative is that this takes years to train. You need legs like tree trunks because the technique is terribly demanding and as you said, it expends energy. A young mans's style that requires a dancer's timing and a powerlifter's quads. To be deployed when terrorising the opponent's ribcage in-close. In my opinion, the only way to defeat the giants of the game like Tyson Fury. Long live Cus!
There are downsides otherwise it would be a perfect move that everyone would use to win. One of the downside he actually does at 10:22 where you can end up square on to your opponent rather than side on. This means you are easier to knock over and also provides your opponent with a bigger target. I have seen boxers recently get stopped because they were square on they got punched in the face with a straight right that sent them straight backwards and KO'd the guy.
@@andyh7895 Thanks for this comment. I appreciate it because it helps me learn! I agree, to a point. Hear me out, and let me be the Devil's Advocate: "Being square doesn't necessarily give the opponent more target to hit.The D'Amato Shift is not to be deployed without that pendulum head-movement Tyson in his Kid Dynamite phase was so known for. It isn't used because it is terribly technical to understand and train. It's not just a question of moving the head: fast feet in the correct position matter just as much. The footwork really key. The square position enables switch-hitting on tap. Saying all of that it simply isn't suited for 90% of fighters. If you are too tall, it is pointless. If you have slow feet or poor balance, you can't do it. But Andy Ruiz could definitely do it. He doesn't move his head at all." What do you think? ;-)
@@BlackPrimeMinister I mean being absolutely square where your feet are at 90 degrees to opponent. That put you off balance and makes for bigger target. Tyson was never trained that way. He had a squarer stance than most but was never fully square on. Also he was never trained as a switch hitter and D'Amato would tell him off when he went southpaw at times. The side step is not exclusive to D'Amato's style. It is used a lot in various Martial Arts as well. Just be careful not to end up in a totally square stance I suppose. But I'm no expert.
@@andyh7895 It's such an interesting subject, man. Interesting details there I didn't know.
@@BlackPrimeMinister Yeah. There is no perfect way to fight thats why boxing is so competitive and upsets happen. Foot work wise I would say always be in a position to punch. Its fairly easy to avoid punches by running but difficult to avoid punches and still have effective counters.
I do love Loma's variation which is to leave his lead hand out to block his opponents sight before shifting over--when they're in a high guard--that way he ensures they (at least) won't see where the next shot is coming from. And it works tremendously well.
Finally someone explains thoroughly. Usually people's videos are just small bits and pieces of information as if they're afraid to teach someone in a complete manner...they'll teach a move and not explain the reasons or when it's strategically sound to utilize said movement, etc. I'm an amateur boxer and I watch alot of "tutorials" This video is complete and the best explanation I've ever found. Which is why I'm suscribed
I love your breakdowns man you’re so good at explaining tactics! 🥊
Just tried this a little today I definitely need to work on this more. If you have time please have a look at my short I uploaded today implementing this some. Thanks again for all your hard work and knowledge transfer 🙏🥊
Your observation and comment drew me to watch the video. You're right about his breakdowns --- he explains tactics in a way that leaves you feeling you're getting information from a knowledgeable source.
@@tombrown9866 100%! I have progressed so fast thanks to him and Tony Jeffries. 🥊 if you look at my channel you’ll see how I progressed past few months!
My favorite thing about this highly detailed and amazing video, is how he specifically focuses on what the opponent is seeing during the exchange. It really puts the whole fight in perspective, whereas I feel that a lot of the technique videos on RUclips are more focused on only presenting the technique, and at most touching on the opposition only in passing. I also love the emphasis on endurance, cardio, stamina, whatever you want to call it. Longevity is a massive asset. If I had to chose a single attribute, stamina is a hard one to ignore in a real-world setting. Love the video 10/10 keep it up, you are for sure one of the top martial arts instructors on RUclips right now!
I appreciate that comment a lot!
I've been trying to learn this technique for some time in sparring, coach you explain so well, I wasn't paying attention to the hip position, it makes sense to use the hip movement to help get the mass into the new position. Much love & respect!
This is a game changer. Thank you so much, not many people can explain foot work in such a easy and effective way.
Thank you for this upload! I’m going to be working on this. I need to work more on my footwork and angles. I been sparring constantly and I’m able to pull these angles off some points at sparring. It is a little difficult and does take conditioning. I’ll be working on these often now. Thank you from New York!
This man knows what he's talking about -- watch and learn!
Thank you!!
Thank you me living in country(georgia) where people do not teach boxing to people lise us who didnt train since childhood. Your videos are very helpfull
Thanks coach!
I’ve seen Tyson and Loma will sometimes do it twice- in other would shift one direction and then quickly the other direction when the opponent turned to face them. I tried I’m sparring a couple of times and yes pretty hard to pull off.
Love your work sir. You cover such a wide range of style
Tyson being my fav for one that enjoys shadoboxing - a lot 😂
So I've used it a few times in spar, the movement is generated from your hips same as hip throw, you straiten out and use your bending angle of your hip to slide you to whichever side you want to be on. Also coming right away as you slide with a cross from the side you slide too generates a lot of power and throws off thier response time. Controle those angles!!
Absolutely amazing channel! Very thorough and detailed to the last step! I love the community and no matter your skill level you feel welcome and not overwhelmed! Strong work and keep up the amazing things you do ! Also where’s the love for the southpaws 😂 🥊.
Dank je well vrijnd! :)
Mann you the best I saw the comment/person who requested this video the other day
Great video.
Finally! Thanks to you I could understood it. Thanks a lot, you're a very good teacher
Everyone should be trying this in training, even beginners, despite it being quite an advanced technique. Even if you're not executing the technique correctly, it will still teach you about angles and get you thinking more about movement and footwork.
Hello
A'm from Iran But living turkey
Tank you for this apload.
Looks excellent. When i get back home, I will download your whole channel.
You aren’t kidding about that energy expenditure. Integrating more footwork and head movement into my bag training has really made it tougher, and this move is surprisingly exhausting.
This video was really useful. Turns out this entire time I was hopping.
Jason, thank you very much for this great instructional video! I have been practicing the D'Amato Switch for a year now, but I always felt like I wasn't getting it right: now I can improve! :) The pros and cons, and the examples of when to use it / when not to use it are also exceedingly useful. Thanks a lot!
This is the ultimate boxing book; only without having the book in your hands and reading yourself coach is reading and practicing it nicely.
Nothing comes close, nothing that i know of at least.
So happy to see u back Coach!! Thanks so much!!!
I don't your hand speed drill late last night ...I destroyed the grass but loved the drill ...calling the numbers very useful but got mixed up between 5 and 6 but I will say at it ...thanks again for taking your time to explain
This always looks so smooth when I do it in the mirror lol. But when I try to use it in sparring I end up all over the place. Thank you for the great videos.
Love this coach ❤ , this is actually my boxing style, and I can and want just improve with your video! Thanks coach 🙏
This guys video instructions are so good and easy to Understand
Thank you so much! Best technical explanation ever. I appreciate it🙏
Much Needed. 🙏
Lomachenko does this a lot
If I were to mimic tactics/techniques, I'd go with Usyk's first before Loma. Though both fighters have INSANE workrate
I love the way Loma does it. He like to triple up in the jabs or even just leaves his lead hand out to cover the it line of site as he scoots off to his right. He's a true wizard
@@ogfostano7794 I did this and the forearm variation in sparring. Worked like a charm. Posting on people's heads though they get pissed off. I'm like bro, it's legal! You can do it too!
@@justashzz oh his badass matador maneuver lmao. Yeah man his ability to move laterally and have the awareness in the ring is ridiculous
I freaken love this dude. Keep them videos coming you're doing an amazing job man👍
Thanks for the break down!
True about the part that it recquires gr8 immense conditionning n energy !
Brilliant to see someone bein original bur also keepin the memory and teachings of the late great Cus D'Amato alive especially for these youngsters who dont know who Cus was. This video has given me some good tips and ideas as a 6'3 heavyweight my movement is good but at 37 ive slowed a bit so im goin to practice and try this.Thanks bro 👍👊
I have a video « punches for 4 hours non stop » i think it can help you to learn how to use all your body to punch
You are a great teacher of boxing 🥊
Thanks for this beautiful tutorial, it's very helpful, I do boxing on my own since 3 months and in October I will subscribe to a gym Boxe! 💪😃🥊
Tyson's word for it is "the twist."
Thanks, Coach!!
The boxraw outfit looks good on you mate 👍🏾
Ahhh! Thank you for clearing up the hop vs. step part. That made everything click for me. Thank you!
Tyson practiced this stuff from 13 to 20 like a couple hundred times a week. He perfected it over years with a master coach. Living and breathing boxing for just as long. Unless your naturally extremely athletic and even then it takes a long time to learn to use in a pressure situation.
When D'Mato first usee the shift with Patterson and then Tyson I though I heard him say, and what we observed, had more head movement? Basically the peekaboo style and shift are dependent on each other, especially the side to side peekaboo hip/head movement that creates the momentum and loading phase for the D'Mato shift. Takes pressure off your legs too.
Btw this was an awesome tutorial
🥊
💯 hey guys get these likes up cause coach be coaching
I think it's helpful for me at least to first slip in the direction that I plan to shift. Also, in sparring I have experimented with throwing the jab off the slip, then immediately switch step to that side. Slip right, with jab thrown at same time, immediately shift right, no hesitation throw a left hook.
This is amazing. Thank you.
Thanks . Great video as usual
beautiful explanation even for those who do not go to gym. God bless.
Very good breakdown Coach!
Great explanation
Great tutorial!
Perfect timing was just looking for this
Ur attitude, ur explanations, so great!
Thanks a lot!
Just Whats I need!
"Shifting" doesn't necessarily require side-stepping; You can simplify
these movements by 'Twisting' at the hip---and, or, 'Leaning,' and duck-
ing a little lower, while remaining defensively vigilant. You will recog-
nize this as the, "Bob and Weave," in boxing. But you've got to either
throw one or two punches, or throw a quick 'Feint,' at your opponent,
thereby setting him up for a clean strike.
And it's relatively easy to 'Recover' from this position. You have the
Options of either, back-peddling, to avoid 'his counter---or, you can,
"SLIP," to your left or right, while covering up, in leu of throwing a
hook, which is a logical punch to throw while leaning to the left,
or right of your opponent.
Does that make sense?
What a guy man. Legend. Thank you coach.
Precision striking, indeed.
Great film.
Exceptional details as always! Thank you so much 🙏
Omgah I love this!!!
Pure gold. Appreciate it :)
Best examples I’ve seen of this used was Tyson using it on Eddie Richardson Marvin Frazier , and mark young for KO .
Excellent video
This is beautiful
Very cool your Youtebe Channel thumb is on. Greetings from a German RUclipsr
I’m late to the party but can’t wait to use this on the heavy bag in my next workout
Nice, I hope you have fun working it
Thanks for explaining that the Shift takes alot of power and energy. I'm new to boxing, am older and have been frustrated that it looks so easy on video but I feel like I'm doing a hop with a heavy bag attached to me when I do this as it's far from effortless. I just gotta be patient and let it happen.
Thanks!
Thank you!!
So apparently I’ve been doing this without even knowing what it is
This is awesome! Thanks again!
Excellent video and very detailed. Thank you
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
I seen lomachenko use this against linares. Superb!
THX!
Great work! Smooth , clear and concised. .
Tx
Fantastic breakdown. Thank you!
Mike Tyson & lomachenko did this beautifully 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That first step to the side is part of your stepping left hook that's how you don't lose that beat
great content as usual
Great explanation
Top notch explanation and demo. Well done. Going to follow this channel.
Awesome ty bro
Cus D'Amato, the man who trained Iron Mike!
Energy and Stamina for sure, its a big drain. You're constantly moving. Tyson's legs and his conditioning were elite level.
Great video. Thank You Sir
Can you make one for Joe Frazier style ? Thank you ❤️
Just subscribed great channel
thank u sir ❤
Спасибо огромное тренер !
Excelente como siempre... 👏 👏... Muy bien explicado... Gracias...
great stuff coach💪🏽💯
The uppercut ff up man
I always learnt it as the pendulum step, it helped me to learn what to do with my feet, you can go back and forth between orthodox stance and the angle and your feet sort of look like a pendulum going back and forth.
It's a risky tactic. Maybe useful to escape when cornered. Using this tactic. There is possibly to walk into a hook punch. Okay maybe if, trying to slip outside an outstretched hand. I am interested to learn about the peek a boo technique. I heard so much about.
Самое эффективное перемещение в ближнем бою!
Спасибо за видео!
Thank u for the tutoring.
Love it, more peekaboo and Tyson moves guides please!
