Coming from tkd I feel very comfortable on the outside, but I never feel like I can get close enough to really throw body shots unless I slip in, which I’m not great at yet. Any tips on safely getting into the midrange?
Sorry that it has taken 2 years for someone to give you some advice bub. To give you some comfort I'm 21 with 3 years in TKD, 2 in boxing and 7 years in kickboxing. I never suggest anyone sticking too one style or predominantly using techniques in one martial art over the others because before you even engage with your opponent you've already given him information on what tools, tactics, and overall approach he should use to give him the highest chance of coming out on top. Coming out with a bladed stance used in TKD triggers his brain into recalling the memories in training that was related to defeating the elusive footwork, kicks, and combos associated and taught in TKD. With all that being said haha primarily I use a TKD style, simply because it suites my characteristics of always being taller with a longer reach than people In my weightclass, fast muscle twitch fibers, and genetics that gave me above average reflexes. The reason I've started out this damn book of a comment about the importance of styles and information is because that is the key to success in every aspect of fighting. Now with that bullshit out of the way haha let's try and see if I can offer ya some assistance. Like I said styles and information is key in every region of martial arts. The puzzle we are attempting to solve is landing body punches. Here are the pieces of the puzzle that we are given; 1. Compare attributes/skill (who's got the advantage in distance control, timing, accuracy, speed, reflexes, reach, height) - Depending on the information gathered will produce the best approach for success in landing your punch. If you want to know the best approach for a specific set of these statistics just ask. 2. Patterns/tendencies. Begin probing and trying to extract as many reactions to certain scenarios as early and often as possible and with each piece of information you collect will make it easier to find the most effective way to tag his body. - use feints to prove for info if he's not giving you any. Otherwise stay in our comfort zone at a distance and exercise that TKD footwork. Jesus Christ RUclips doesn't do well with long comments. If you want to know more, or anyone else just message me for the rest of it. I can't continue with this input lag.
Plus I'd be kinda mad if this dude has a different account and doesn't even see this. Regardless if anyone else has any questions or wants to add or trade some knowledge feel free.
Regardless, I'll leave you with probably the best tip. Your brain can only focus on one train of thought, in fighting familiarize yourself with your opponents state of mind. The two states are defensive and offensive, there is no middle ground. Even in a scenario where someone slips a jab and throws one at the same time. That's a defensive state that uses a body motion which also does damage. The best time to throw a punch with the highest rate of success is when your opponent is switching states. If you want to land a body shot either catch him in this state or force him into a defensive state where he isn't thinking about switching to offensive. Landing a hard strike usually triggers this, or if you are sticking and moving and hitting him at will without being hit will trigger a "locked in" defensive mode where he never becomes offensive. This takes alot of mental conditioning and negative reinforcement, by not being able to hit you and each time he tries he gets hit. You can observe this with fighters like Anderson Silva or vasyl lomachenko where their opponents just essentially freeze. Allowing you to do some high risk flying spinning shit off the side of the cage if you wanted to without any repercussions haha and if you have the freedom to do something like that, you damn sure have the freedom to throw body shots my man.
Great series. Thank you very much,
