This looks like the “Batman fighting style” which also moves to hammer strikes. It was designed for a movie but is actually effective for a street attack.
I did that survey and I chose BLOCK because it is the second most instintive of human self defense ( no.1 is Running, if the chance to do that is available )
3.30 mins, block and drive straight through, once in close you can use your left hand to grab and take control while delivering right arm elbow strikes to the face. Good video.
This guy took blocks from KFM/ Defense Lab. He does the techniques but doesn’t incorporate his base. Someone with true intent and power would blow right through his defense ( as good as these techniques are).
Imma practice that cross guard. Question of the month. Do you think that " knife fighting only happens if it's planned. Knife fighting is consensual and stupid. " I both agree and disagree with that statement personally. But I'd like to here your take on it.
At least in the US, I think it’s very unlikely someone finds themselves in a situation where they are both being attacked by a blade and have time to draw their blade. You’re either being stabbed (and don’t know it until it’s already happened) or you’re being threatened with a stabbing, but you almost never end up in a West Side Story duel. However I think there is value in practicing knife fighting for learning how to defend yourself in that situation, and how to become comfortable with violence.
@CombatSelfDefense Yes, I'm very familiar 🙂. I carry a 3.5-inch cold steel dagger in my boot. Yes, that's perfectly legal where I live. I also carry a bunch of other things, though. The point is that it's a last-ditch backup in my book. A west side story style knife fight is a nightmare scenario anyhow. And that's coming from a full contact stick fighter. I wonder what some people are thinking sometimes. Like, dude, you're gonna square up with somebody that has a knife? Nope.
Good day to you Mr Rowland! I enjoyed your Video about arm defenses. esp. because I like your overall approach to stay practical but think "outside the box" at the same time. When it comes to self defense, it seems to me, that alot of instructors suggest to use more tight covers (helmet) May I ask your expert opinion on this type of arm defense? This former amateur boxer and bouncer suggests to not rely at all on tight coverblocks and THEN counter , since the rapid nature of a streetfight. Instead one should utilize “progressive blocks” which ARE strikes, directed to opponents head. Purpose being to regain immediate initiative, “opening up” the opponent with pressure. Do you think his technique is legit or bullshido? kind regards The basic idea: Minute 6:20- 7:20 ruclips.net/video/aC9XroIdBQ0/видео.html idea in combination (his own channel) minute 8:24 -9:05 ruclips.net/video/OksxRjbPfo0/видео.html
I think, as with all things, it’s A WAY to do things. As I describe in this video, what you call the helmet guard (I call it a shell guard) can also be used to spear the opponent rather than strike after you’re done blocking. It’s all situational.
I found out South Korean martial art Tekken? 택견 (copy pasted) This one seems really legit. Could you upload video utilizing 택견 in real life combat scenarios?
Here's a small adjustment to make when you demonstrate and when you practice and another two sense. Measure all the strikes from contact, then throw them. The two to three inches difference is big in terms of functionality. You don't want to be that teacher practicing wrongly for many years because a teacher does reps in teaching over time. My caution to you also would be that you be very cautious to minimize defenses that stick your hands in/meat side first. This is a sucker attack (not a sucker punch) as you don't know whether or not the hands are loaded. What you do as a reflex action should factor this consideration. I understand as a content creator the challenge of sharing new material. I respect anyone who tries to better prepare others for self-defense, admire those that think out of the box like yourself and have the courage even to buck popular notions. Keep going.
@CombatSelfDefense oh, no, I see you say it's not really possible, as it isn't, and I agree. What I'm saying is that in every following counter you give after that, your partner never throws a sucker punch, so the entire video and your counters have nothing to do with countering sucker punches. Which is correct. Your title suggests it is. Damn, I was trying to keep the comment light and humorous, but now you've gone and made me sound pedantic. Lol
@CombatSelfDefense note: by definition, a sucker punch is a surprise because it's thrown inside an arms reach. Those defenses are great, but those aren't sucker punches, imo.
"you don't have that kind of time": Is it really that much faster to raise my arms instead of moving my head. Head movement might still not be ideal, but the reasoning seems quite shallow.
Moving your head and head movement are not the same thing. Given that most people’s natural response to stress of any kind is to throw their hands up (and maybe duck) it is more responsible to use your hands to block rather than rely on movement alone.
@@CombatSelfDefense Perhaps you are right about intuitiveness and risk. Still not sure about the difference in speed between head movement vs. getting into a shield guard.
@@wasweissichschonvon it’s not about the speed, its about the perceptiveness. A shield guard defends from the likely overhand right, and a left, and a straight, and allows you to attack simultaneously. Moving your head doesn’t grant the same defense.
he said it only works for a split second and i think u can master it to the point where u can both block and see the opponent at the same time, u don't have to completely block your vision but that's just my opinion

I believe I mentioned that a few of the moves I use in this video are derived from KFM (the style you're referring to)
Is 52 or wingfight of Victor Gutierrez
52 is definitely the best defense for punches in a street fight good video
I did that survey and I chose BLOCK because it is the second most instintive of human self defense ( no.1 is Running, if the chance to do that is available )
If you’re getting punched, the option to run already passed
Practical advice! Blocks are good! Footwork and dealing with infighting is also important. Nothing wrong with running if possible!
Great way to turn the arms crossed 🙎 into a slef defense block without breaking stride.
Cross block is highly effective against straight punches
Agreed!
@@CombatSelfDefense What would you say the openings of the Cross block are?
@@MrKeepnit100 what do you mean by openings?
@@CombatSelfDefense the weaknesses of it
@@MrKeepnit100kicks 😊
A lot of this looks like what I think of when I think of Wing Chung.
You’re gonna like one of my upcoming videos then.
I love those blocks,AWESOME TRAINING!!! THIS WOULD WORK. CROSS GUARD BLOCK!
Amazing...
defense block , this is real..👍
Thank's for sharing
Most street thugs are head hunters, so these blocks are very effective.
Jailhouse Rock and Panantukan use these techniques.
3.30 mins, block and drive straight through, once in close you can use your left hand to grab and take control while delivering right arm elbow strikes to the face. Good video.
Yo dont see a sucker punch coming so how u gonna block a sucker punch if u dont see it
Ken Norton, Gene Fullmer, Archie Moore are good references for that *Cross-Guard* . I think Joe Frazier also transitioned into it on and off
This guy took blocks from KFM/ Defense Lab. He does the techniques but doesn’t incorporate his base. Someone with true intent and power would blow right through his defense ( as good as these techniques are).
GREAT TEACHING VIDEO
Just problem to see with the tight wall lol

A better i think position before a potential street fight is thinker position
Hand on chin jawline
Other hand under the other elbow

Ok you mention 52 Blocks
Yep.
My issue is that none of the attacks were actually sucker punches. Title is sus. Lol
Go ahead and rewatch the first minute and a half or so

Yall late to the 52 block party
Which is why I attribute 52 blocks in the video.
Just don't let them aggressive people get close. Getting close means fight time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kwan sau in wing chun
You are using 52 block
sure am.
Gool
Block ur vision feels dumb
he said it only works for a split second and i think u can master it to the point where u can both block and see the opponent at the same time, u don't have to completely block your vision but that's just my opinion
This is why you never punch in a real fight, good chance to injure the hands.
Or why you hope your attacker tries to punch you so you can hurt HIS hands.
@@CombatSelfDefense Why would you wait? Are you defending your ego or your life?
More often than not you’re doing neither.

Yay
