He had no defense he would put his arms out and keep you at Bay then bring his hands back but in my eyes he had no defense he had a hell of a jab but we practice to keep his jab and place block it
Still looking sharp champ. Especially upstairs which is great to see!! Slipping was my first defence, I learnt that because the old man always was about footwork and lateral movement. If your feet are lagging behind you will get caught. To many people try and parry punches and it doesn’t work out to well most of the time 😂
Fuck the jab. Unless you're Sonny Liston, you can't KO anyone with the jab. I want to beat the shit out of my opponent, not to outpoint him. A win on points is fucking worthless and it doesn't bring me any glory.
@@michaeltrumph121 lol maybe you should take your 1st boxing lesson before you talk such a big game. You clearly never stepped foot in a boxing ring in your life.
mine was being taught the 'swipe' and now looking back I WISH Tim Witherspoon was my coach and taught that (and cross armed defense as he does it) but the point here is: Yes lol... I feel your 'good times' memories.
*oh, also adding: Did he or someone standing around say something like "ok, see, you blocked it with your chin. try using your glove instead". Some quip like that?
@@topsuperseven7910 yeah he would always say "you gonna let an old man punch you in the face like that" every time he'd tag me with one. 60 year old man making me laugh while taking me to school. Some of my best memories were in that gym.
David needs to be a regular as these vids progress. Good job David! Hey, one thing I just loved was the bonus tip from Spoon at 5:00 that is a fake-out to get OUT OF TROUBLE. almost none of us regular folks think of these great 'tricks of the pros' moves so I love stuff like that.
David is a great young man who is in the Air Force. He is the full package. There will be lots of nuggets in my videos if someone just knows where too look
It's just better when the partner of the teacher is not a pro himself. Those guys who are pro or semi-pro just anticipate what is the lesson and automatically make 5 different things correct that I would miss. David here is great, he's good for real, but the coach can still show with his demonstration what one might miss when focussing on the lesson. That way I really learn more. Great lesson, thank you!
I will have some work out videos coming. We are also thinking about adding a tier on Patreon where when you pledge $25 a month you will get access to a one hour live work out with me once a week!
Just started my journey to the ring about a month ago. I am finding these videos super helpful! Granted, I am training kick boxing. That just means these guys will surprised when I have them hot hands! Loving the vids!
When dude was guarding his ribs, it just reminded me of how freakishly long Winky Wright's guard was from the peek- a - boo stance. I never saw him slightly lean to protect his ribs, he just closes it up well.
Tim,you are a great champion and role model.. I was distraught to learn you were living in my home town of Doncaster,UK for awhile!?..and never met you!!
This is one form of blocking a jab. Parrying can also be used, as well just that, as you alluded to, with parrying, you have to be careful not to overextend and leave yourself open.
@@hernandayolearyallda As I stated, I am aware of this issue and, what you said is true, which is why when you parry the movement should be minimal. On the other hand, a parry can leave your opponent open. It's a less fundamentally sound riskier technique with the potential of a bigger reward.

Thanks. One video I'd like to see from you soon is how to throw a jab. It's a really basic and simple fundamental, but I really struggle due to a left shoulder injury (& seeming inability to move my hips in any motion other than robotic) to throw it properly. Simple things like drills to shift the weight to throw the jab, but also bring it back quickly and out again. Previously when at the gym my trainer would simple describe throwing out the hand, but give absolutely no advice on how to return it quickly, and a lot of talk on turning my foot, but not on how to shift my weight. It just didn't seem right to me and I would love to see a professional describe how it should be done. Maybe I will finally understand.

This answers a question I've had for a while, but how would you advise defending against a Jab in a situation without gloves, or gloves without a palm or as wide/puffy a surface area?
Holmes always impressed me with his ability to catch and parry shots as well as the guard manipulation he used to set up his own punches.
Holmes could not slip punches very well but used arm block.
He had no defense he would put his arms out and keep you at Bay then bring his hands back but in my eyes he had no defense he had a hell of a jab but we practice to keep his jab and place block it
@@timwitherspoon1378interesting. Love your perspective.
I'm definitely trying this soon!
Great!! We can go over this in detail!
Keep doing these, some of the best boxing content I've seen.
You got it my friend!!
Still looking sharp champ. Especially upstairs which is great to see!!

Jabs: The most basic and most necessary/useful punch in your arsenal

@@dsr521 Lol
I remember when I was first training this jab block and took a clean bare knuckle to the face from my trainer. Good times.

Nice to see a legend teaching fundamentals.
That one little movement saves so much time,thank you Grandmaster 🙌🏿

Great knowledge, gonna practice this tonight in class 💪
This is great, this is the first jab defense video I’ve seen
This is gold man. You don't get these advice nowadays.
Great content champ 💪🏽

Boy oh boy! This is gold. Very effective technique and work perfectly well.
Make a video teaching the crossguard champ.
Thank you
Coach the way u dismantled Bruno was insane..I wish u would share the tutorial of your overhand right .
This is one form of blocking a jab. Parrying can also be used, as well just that, as you alluded to, with parrying, you have to be careful not to overextend and leave yourself open.
This is basically a parry but without the extension.
Main issue with the parry is the opponent will fake you, you parry on the bite, then they shoot the real shot and your hand is now down.
@@hernandayolearyallda As I stated, I am aware of this issue and, what you said is true, which is why when you parry the movement should be minimal. On the other hand, a parry can leave your opponent open. It's a less fundamentally sound riskier technique with the potential of a bigger reward.
Thanks for these videos going to show my boys one day when they are older and doing a bit of boxing
Big up Tim
Good work from both guys!!

I want to see David as a reoccurring feature.
I will try to get David in more.
When i fought my cousin he jabbed me through the nose and i bled so it always favor the round to him but after watching im pretty sure im ready
🔥
This answers a question I've had for a while, but how would you advise defending against a Jab in a situation without gloves, or gloves without a palm or as wide/puffy a surface area?
same way you would gloved. palm open. in my experience its even easier because you dont have the weight on your hands.
I catch jabs with my face.
You are not the real Terrible Tim. You are not Brotherman Bill.
This is true when it comes to singing. I could never have such a sweet and ethereal voice
Get a mic sir! Please
