It really happens. I hit the punching bag getting back to the guard's hand, defending and even dodging, but when it's sparring I've a certain insecurity. It's amazing how you really know about the beginners problems!!
Easy, and some of the oldest knowledge: a bag doesn’t hit back. You’re the most exposed when you’re throwing punches, knowing that doesn’t help; commit when you throw, and it’s the easiest to follow up off of a jab which you can also use to close distance. Don’t throw anything you don’t intend to land, & if you’re fast with good hand eye coordination then your best off eating a few to set the timing for effective counter punches.
Throw punches when you want to though , not because you feel you have to. If you see nothing open & absolutely have no clue what to throw just start with a jab. Not everything has to be hard just touch.
@@epictetus9221 Yea I throw tons of shots I don’t intend to land lmao. I’m looking for reactions, keeping the opponent reacting and tense, etc. Usyk’s and Volkanovski’s last fights are great examples of this. A good specific example of this is Petr Yan dropping Jimmie Rivera w an overhand in their fight. Every time Yan would throw his rich overhand, Rivera would exit out to his right. So, knowing this, Yan threw a shifting right overhand and cracked Rivera w a left overhand as he circled into it
I work at a high school. I'm an educator. I got the green light to start a boxing club. No sparring, however teaching strategies like these is what I am looking for. I appreciate your hard work and time my good man!
@@CEO_Belal I’m assuming it’s the schools idea and not his. Ironic considering football is just as violent and they would never have football without tackles
@@kingcold1758 Football is arguably worse, you get a concussion in no time if someone tackles you the wrong way. Sparring is way safer, especially if they wear headgear.
Omg! This is the best explanation of what you should be thinking and doing in the ring. Nobody teaches these important tips. This is next level boxing and I am absorbing it like a sponge! Thank you JT for shining a light on this topic. Your enthusiasm for teaching boxing is tempting me to get back in the ring. Keep ‘them coming!
I'm a beginner and I was having problems landing punches and fear of being hit I didn't even realize that my feet were too far from my opponent and my coach never warned me or taught me that either, one of the best advice I've ever had I'll apply in the next class and fall inside thanks , I hope more videos for beginners , thanks from Brazil
1. Know Your Distance 0:22 2. Punch With Footwork 2:17 3. Cover And Get Out Quick 4:30 4. Use Head Movement 5:32 5. Know Your Combos(combos are means to hit the target) 7:22
I just started boxing on Saturday. I've never even been in a fight before, but thought boxing would be pretty fun. Thank you for uploading vidoes because I literally have no idea what to do but you explain things clearly
Good for you mate!! I’ve been doing it 4 times a week for 3 months and there’s been a pretty big improvement (tho I’d done Muay Thai for years before etc) … look at my library the boxing peekaboo folder there’s a ton of helpful videos. Keep at it! I’m now sparring with the boxers in my gym (I’m 37) going toe to toe and by no means getting the better of them but I’m landing shots and can take shots. If you want to get better you will :) Let me know how you get on! If you can’t see the folder reply here it may be on private. Tony Jeffries and precision striking are also great channels
When I started 2 years ago (I haven’t and still haven’t been in a fight) I started from scratch beside watching fights or video games. I’d say I look pretty close to a beginning amateur boxer. Keep going time flies when you’re having fun.
This is amazing. Your articulation of distancing and getting "into range" gave me that little lightbulb moment where everything clicks. Thanks a lot for putting this out there!
This is the perfect answer. Thank you... this alone will make me better because these extra concepts didn't exist in my training yet. Coaches just say stuff like "it's all about the footwork." which doesn't reveal my mistakes really like this does.
Thank-you for this one. I spar at an MMA gym during kickboxing class. So it's a bit different from boxing. This still pertains to me because it's all so new to me. I hesitate to really throw.
Yea sometimes I get caught up just feinting and defending shots but freezing with my offense. You just gotta make it dirty cuz that’s what fighting is and push past your comfortable point
I feel this same but with enough time and experience you will open up more with your shots without hurting your partner! Good luck chuck keep at it!! Never quit! 🔥
@@nanoplays1295 Thanks Brother!! I know exactly what you are saying...it happened back in March of this year. I took a month off due to Co-Vid, but when I came back I was all of a sudden at a different level completely. Not just the dodging shots to the face, but the offense man. I was big on my kicks at first, but now I open up with the hands so much more. The weird thing is that it depends on who I am sparring. The few people that I am used to hitting in the face are the rounds in which have no problem doing so. However, sparring with someone else for the first couple of times is so much more difficult to be okay with hitting them in the head. It sounds bizarre, but it is something that I struggle with. I need to get to the point in which I can spar everybody that same way. Like I said though, what a difference in my overall skill over the past 10 months (since I started.) Have a good one G. ✌️🤙
@@zakb.9 Straight Up!! I feel you on that one man. You have to be the aggressor or the counter striker, but one should only be a counter puncher if they are really really good at it. If not, then many times we end up seeing an aggressor v.s. an aggressor... i.e. GAETHJE v.s. CHANDLER.
One of, if not THE best instructional guide on distance, mindset, and movement that I have seen from any coach, youtube or otherwise. Not just teaching technicality but also strategy. This man knows the boxing game.
Just realized I've been watching your stuff while doing drills for so long that I haven't actually sat down and watched something that wasn't workout-related. And didn't know I hadn't subbed. Fixed that. can't believe it took me this long.
This is one of the best video demonstration ever on RUclips!!! Hands down!!! He knows what he’s talking about !! I wish you were my trainer even tho I don’t have one .
1. Getting to the ideal distance Travel quick! Get to your ideal distance, THEN you fire. Practice this to make it automatic. 2. Punch while stepping forward a) Double jab b) 1,2 (you can use a little hop) c) 1,2,3 with a jump 3. Prepare for what is coming back Always end the combo by covering and/or moving out of range as fast as you throw your punches. Think "1,2,3,4" (4=cover or move). 4. Headmovement while moving into range Think punch, slip, more punches. First punch is not important, it only sets up the other (power) punches (eg touch gloves of opponent) Alternatives: Move head first, then punch Slip while throwing the punch 5. It is about hitting targets, not about combos Hit the open spots. Try out what works on your opponent. A combo is just a means to this end. Dont just throw a combo and hope that sth lands. Think while boxing.
Great content, I’ve just recently started sparring again and forgot about the nervous energy before getting in the ring. A lot of the apprehension comes more from the fear of being hit rather than the actual hit itself. Once you accept that getting hit is just a matter of ‘when’ rather than ‘if’ it’s easier to settle in and get in a rhythm. Breath, breathing and more breathing is also a great tip, it’s hard to let your hands go when your breathing out your arse 😂
Someone getting to the science part of the ‘sweet science’. Thinking, striking, absorbing hits, moving and evading, all at the same time. Chess with pain. Thanks coach 🙏
What he is say is ideal for landing punches. But to answer about let hands go is mental and preparation. Don't just throw punches, practice the 1,2 jab, right hand or like 4,3 upper cut, left hook, this is the preparation, getting your timing and muscle memory and like in the video learning what distance you need to be, foot placement is most important, where you foot is is the diffence between landing and missing. finally we have be taught to be nice and don't assault people and things, if you want to be a fighter, you have to forget all that, and have a it's going to be you or me attitude. And quit being scared to get hit, it's fighting, protect yourself and train hard, but a fight has a good chance of drawing blood. It's not for everybody, but boxing will teach you what type of man you are.
I like how you demonstrate both the wrong and right way to do the technique - this shows what mistakes for your target audience to avoid while giving a clear vision on how to improve
I tell the lads that i coach the same thing. I teach them to step in. Most of them dont know about stepping in and theyve been training for some time. I also see a lot of "bad jabs" they throw two or three punches with other coaches then I ask them to throw a jab. Nine out of 10 with throw it wrong. They think that by throwing two or three punches is great, but when its time to do it right thats a different kettle of fish. I enjoy a challange and i enjoy coachs lads that have ambitions to become amateur boxers. Great video my friend thank you. Hope to see more 👍👍👍👍👍☘️☘️🇬🇧
This coaching is priceless. I know people who are in a Backyard Boxing league. The difference in the fighters with some formal training and the experienced street fighters is that the street fighters don't know how to get in range so either they go flailing in or wait for their opponent to come to them, or else they have one self-taught trick that they rely on heavily, maybe with some feinting incorporated, to close distance.
The last tip really did it for me! Letting your hands go needs a purpose behind it. Don't just throw punches for the sake of throwing punches. Thanks, Coach!
This was very helpful! The distance management in a fight vs a boxing bag tripped me up in my first spare. I just didn’t understand why until this video. Thank you!
My take away is, using the combos to understand the other guys style.... his week and strong points. "remember that for later" you just put it well, use changing combos to learn the opponents reactions. It's obvious, it always has been, but hearing it the way you said it clears combos all up! Great Stuff!!!
know your distance and where you need to be to get the punches off punch with footwork (double jab, jab cross) know your combos (train to know your targets, try out different punches and combos, be intentional) Awesome video. Thank you!
I love that passion! You rekindled that love for boxing for me some 6 years ago and now, after having rejoined a gym and brushed up on my skills, I am teaching kids at the school I work at and it´s just a blast!
Absolutely the best heavy bag tutorial I've ever seen, and I don't say lightly; this is a comprehensive yet concise explanation of how to treat the heavy bag like an opponent.
"A true coach, I just wanna kiss his head out of pure respect. Real thing said ,you have to think and box at the same time. All I do in my sparring is throw useless combos and get KO so bad. Coach kindly make more videos like this. I'm here to learn."
Hello brother, thanks for your amazing content. You are a genius boxing analyst and strategist. I believe that every real boxing fan or competitive boxer would very happy to see David Tua’s breakdown and combos. Thanks for everything.
Great video. I’m brand new to boxing. I‘ve had maybe 3 sparring sessions, and this REALLY speaks to me. I find there is SO much to think about when facing an opponent who is firing back. I end up so concerned with defense that it’s difficult to even know how to approach and/or what to throw. You’re absolutely correct; I’m not being deliberate with my attacks. I just go in hoping for the best and end up eating punches. I see that I need to really work out my combos, think about targets and then integrate solid defense into that. Thanks 🙏👍🏼🥊
Very big facts here when i 1st sparred i just didnt understand and im very long i just thought "the guys short ima just time him with my jab" and didnt know that has to be worked in !! what ever ur doing u have to understand how to work it in!!
First tournament and first fight this Wednesday let’s go gonna give it my all wanna say thanks to u for helping me more than u probably know all over lockdown etc you’ve helped so much and always putting out brilliant vids, tips an workouts ur a legend 💯
@@kp2861 thanks a lot brother appreciate that will be going for the win give it my all fighting in 3 hrs ready to roll feeling confident whatever happens it won’t stop me from grinding boxing 🥊
This is such a great video! Things that are totally missed in training that you don't want to have to learn 'on the job' while real punches are flying back.
When I watch your videos (it doesn't matter what the video is about) I always leave with at least one very good tip, boxing may not be my thing, but thanks to you I really find enjoyment when I practice :)
For the last part, I believe there's a way to train for it. When most people practice hitting the heavy bag, they just hit the heavy bag and probably use it for conditioning. The key is to treat the heavy bag as an alive opponent, it's kinda like shadow boxing, but you're shadow boxing with the heavy bag. You need to visualize your opponent in front of you, when you're hitting the heavy bag. Hit the heavy bag as how you would hit in sparring. Practice hitting the heavy bag with combos, and get used to those combos until they're natural reflexes. I believe that's what Mike Tyson did back then, he punched the heavy bag with the same combos that he used in fights.
this is super true .. i try to add blocking and positioning cutting angles and having the bag swing into me with force and i will throw up a defense .. not the same as getting punched .. but im thinking it will help with my muscle memory
Man this is great! I've been in so many classes where they taught "how" to do all this stuff without teaching any of the "why". This is obviously super basic stuff you're showing and I still had several "Aha" moments, just from the explanations. I wish I had two more hands so I could give this four thumbs up! ;)
If this channel had been around back when I was fighting, I genuinely believe my amateur career may have been different. It's amazing how many coaches don't know any of this stuff.

That's great to hear! Thank you
I used to lose every spar I get into until I've learn my range and learning how I should punch through the target now am really good at it
Its could be one of the best videos for beginners I've ever seen.
I've been watching you shadowbox and hit the bag. Your technique is super good 💯 Keep up the good work, coach!
One of the best trainers PERIOD!
This video is just pure gold
By far the best boxing training vids on YT. Thanks coach
This is a very important video. Thanks for sharing this.
For the last part, I believe there's a way to train for it.
When most people practice hitting the heavy bag, they just hit the heavy bag and probably use it for conditioning.
The key is to treat the heavy bag as an alive opponent, it's kinda like shadow boxing, but you're shadow boxing with the heavy bag.
You need to visualize your opponent in front of you, when you're hitting the heavy bag. Hit the heavy bag as how you would hit in sparring.
Practice hitting the heavy bag with combos, and get used to those combos until they're natural reflexes. I believe that's what Mike Tyson did back then, he punched the heavy bag with the same combos that he used in fights.
this is super true .. i try to add blocking and positioning cutting angles and having the bag swing into me with force and i will throw up a defense .. not the same as getting punched .. but im thinking it will help with my muscle memory
thx 🎉
probably one of the best instructional videos out there!
I love your informeation. It has helped me advance so much. Long form for the win.
Man this is great! I've been in so many classes where they taught "how" to do all this stuff without teaching any of the "why". This is obviously super basic stuff you're showing and I still had several "Aha" moments, just from the explanations. I wish I had two more hands so I could give this four thumbs up! ;)
Awesome coming across this video. Very helpful with me recently starting sparring for taekwondo
i also learned that what folk taught me wasnt the correcxt aproach folks taught me>> you gotta use your reach ur very tall
As a self taught ammy, this is the greatest video ever. I appreciate you
Nice! my middle name is Todd, which was my great grandmother's maiden name, first name Jason. just like you bro. No joke.
@@PrecisionBoxing I'll do you one better, I'm Jamaican too. Bless up
Great perspective on distance and punching !
Always appreciate your videos. Some of the best out there.
Thank you . I'm going to implement these on Friday sparring
IMO, the best instruction on the tube bar none.
Watching this video after getting my nose blown in sparring 2 days ago. Thank you, coach. Will definitely practice these tips in the coming week.
If this channel had been around back when I was fighting, I genuinely believe my amateur career may have been different. It's amazing how many coaches don't know any of this stuff.
good olee lateral motion is a game changer
Great video. Ton of inspiration and ideas to try. 🙏
Thanks for all you do
Too this video is helping me out in a major way. Thank you for the tutorial.
Your a Great teacher coach!
This is excellent advice and illustration. I gotta be more intentional with my combos.
Thank you coach!
Thank you for making these arts of videos for free !🤝
