      @Tony A taller person doesn't always have a longer reach. The smaller guy should make himself smaller by bending his Knees a bit more to make himself even harder to hit.
      There are a lot of taller people who find it difficult to throw strikes lower because they ain't used to striking lower.

    This is a bit tricky to do in a streetfight due to opponents having weapons and you being outnumbered. The solution is to move like this but quickly.

    Great videos by the way. A Forearm to the teeth is always a good and quick move to do damage and it saves your knuckles does minimal or no damage to your Forearm its fast and they dont see it coming like a punch it does alot of damage covers alot more square inches than your fist its a great move to get out of a situation..always get off first..never sucker but always get off first it could save your live.

    Problem with getting in close if you’re just a boxer (if it’s a street fight) is it’s possible he will just grab onto you and manhandle you to the ground if he has any training…or sense. Boxers should learn grappling and grapplers should learn boxing.

    My legs are longer than most arms. A kick worked also as shock value when someone's teeth got kicked out; it gave me a split-second to run when everyone's eyes turned towards the bleeding mouth. I was surrounded & being groped. It was scary. I just reacted. Luckily I had been working out & had very strong legs.

    • @MegaCharizardX2op
      @MegaCharizardX2op Месяц назад

      Getting kicked in the jaw is crazy, if anyone smart enough saw you lifting your leg, they would either blocked with their forearm, caught the leg, or just taking a step back before lunging back in. You're lucky that the people surrounding you were easily distracted or else, you would've been thrown back.

    I'm really short and build like a rugby player. As a matter of fact, I'm build similar to Maradona when he was actively playing soccer. I used to play rugby in my younger years. It is always awkward for other boxers when we pair up for practice because they always tell me that I'm too close to them. However, if I stay at their comfortable distance, they always hit me while I cannot even reach them.

    I'm not the hater of you, but it is very difficult to complete what you have just said. In the real fight your opponent will not wait for your head movements and for your tricks he will be highly aggressive and fast and 90% of your tips won't work in there.
