      So to classify each: *Parry:* Pro - Counterpunching - Con - Weak to feints ... *Slip:* Pro - Make them miss + counterpunching - Con - Slip into a hook, requires fast reaction, still in range ... *Roll:* Pro - Avoids hooks and even straight punches, sets up hooks - Con - Requires fast reactions, burns a lot of energy, still in range ... *Lean back:* Pro - Great to avoid a jab or cross and come back in with a strong punch - Con - If he keeps coming you're doing the limbo and falling. *Move back:* Pro - Takes you out of range of his counter, takes the sting off if you do get his Con - You can get backed into the ropes or corner if you don't quickly circle away. Sounds like the best defense is a mix of all of them, based on your opponent.

      @@guezel6366 Well I didn't suggest that you should only resort to your footwork for defense. Good defense is multi-layered: you can't just slip a single punch and stop dead on your track because fighters fight in combos, most of the times it's slip - counter - move out or maintaining continuous movements of the head; so in that regard footwork is but another layer of a fighter's defense, albeit a very crucial one. And in a sense all head movements are offensively oriented in nature: they keep you inside the pocket - under fire - in order to exploit potential openings and possibly win the exchange, that's why when it comes to pure defense I believe evasive footwork is where it's at.

I think a fight starts really in first line with footwork.

    Step back definitely the best move. I was friendly sparring a friend in a field who's never boxed. He just infinitely stepped away and out of range infinitely. Not much to be done without a ring. However, when there is a ring, you can't just step back every time. You definitely need good lateral footwork, cardio and evasive ability, especially against opponents who just wanna get into your face all of the time.

    So, I've been into historical fencing (HEMA) and I can say from experience that the last two defenses are also the best ones. Leaning back or stepping back and out of your oponent's weapon is very good. A plus for the step back defense is that in fencing you can throw a cut to your oponent's arm because is very exposed.
    The school of bolognese straight sword uses a kind of similar stance than boxing: legs separated very slightly, knees bent just a little, and the rear heel is floting. Yes, it's very different from olympic fencing.

    I would arguably say the best defense in boxing has to be the one where it best counteracts the type of punch your opponent is throwing at that point in time. The step back is a great overall move for them all, however you can only step back so far(without changing angles) in a ring. At one point you're gonna have to be in hitting range cause you also wanna score, in which case the defense would either be the slip, roll, duck, parry or block.

In self defense, this is one of the most important skills, followed by moving off the line with a swing step, bump or a fade and follow. Your instruction is top shelf man. Are you training out of LA?

    Thanks again for the videos coach. I agree... the step back is what keeps many famous boxers in one piece (not getting hit) and is definitely the most useful style, of course still including the other styles as well is mandatory because at some point you need to be able to block well... still... step back as a primary tool is a pretty good call if your goal is success in the ring.

      Good ring IQ is so tough to maintain while someone is hitting you at full speed. But it'd be cool to see a cause and effect video... Pressure fighter comes forward throwing... Counter puncher uses stiff jab and circles out... Pressure fighter knows this isn't a feint, so he is safe to parry the jab and come back with a right cross... Counter puncher can plan for this counter by slipping the right and throwing two left hooks. And that's just one sequence... and at amateur levels, people are sometimes just going to war, so the IQ goes out the window.

    as a former amateur boxer, I always rolled, that was my go to defense , and I used it also to get in the pocket, worked fine for the level I was at .
    Then, few years after hanging the gloves, one of my best friends, a wrestler and bjj yellow belt, brought me to an MMA gym . Cocky as I am, and confident that I was still a decent striker, I went in and spar with one of the guys . And OOHH mann, was I dumb . My bad habit of rolling had me getting kneed so hard I could barely say my name .

    Amazing video as always Tony! Looking back now, your high guard blocking at 1:30 can be used with body mechanics to minimise impact. When someone throws a left hand from southpaw, you can twist your body to the left and pair it with a parry. Furthermore, stepping back to create distance with a parry and body mechanics can minimise impact, rather than taking the brunt force.

Like after every 3, duck, or after a 1-2 shoulder roll. You will really improve muscle memory and feel if your footwork is good. If you do good footwork and tecnique, you will feel ready and loaded for other stuff, like after a good balanced 2, you feel loaded for a 3, a 5, a slip or another 1.

    Hi, Tony!
    I've been watching your videos for a week and no sooner had I finished watching the first one than I subscribed your RUclips channel in the blink of an eye.
    I gotta a question for you with regards to defense: I agree that stepping back is the best defense; what would you use if your rival leads you against the ropes, though?
    Thank you and keep going! You're helping me taking up boxing!

    • @HunterWilliamCooper
      @HunterWilliamCooper 3 года назад

      No expert myself but someone mentioned above the step back is best coupled with the side step after to not only get you out of range of the boxer, but start developing momentum in one direction or another to get outside of your opponent and back into the inside of the ring.

    The step back means you're no longer in range to throw some punches yourself so I'd say the slip and the roll are the best as long as you throw a combo straight after you do them

    • @imperialgaurd276
      @imperialgaurd276 3 года назад +3

      You can also step back (to avoid a punch/combo) and step forward with a jab (and followup combo) I guess. Like fencing.

      The stepback is the best because is part of the "in and out" footwork, we can stepback , and when they miss , we step forward and fire back 🤙🏻

    • @bigheadrhino
      @bigheadrhino 3 года назад +2

      Actually, you are. If they throw a straight they’re going to follow you right in range for your counter. If they threw a hook, they’re going to be slightly turned allowing you to immediately step in on their flank. When you step back you keep your neutral fighting stance which means you can throw any punch right after.

    The Philly shell can be impeccable if done right you can cover almost your entire chin with your lead shoulder. You can still parry and hand trap. Your jab now comes at a deceptive angle. You are primed to counter with a straight punch. But most importantly you can still do the step back
