How to NOT get punched in the nose

- Q&A with the coach: Do you struggle with the problem of getting punched in the nose, eyes, chin, or generally in the face while sparring? Chances are it's because of your head position. Changing the angle you carry your skull around on top of your neck will solve a lot of problems

Mwahahahahaha!!!
Epic comment :D
@@RamseyDewey I had deviated septum so I had surgery and it's quite fragile,how do fighter have nose surgery and still fight and how long should one wait after surgery to fight again?
Bad air ways effects my sleep and my nose is the single thing that's stopping me from fighting.
I can take a hit to my head and bleed but if my nose gets it then I can't sleep or breath properly.
I love it

"Your forehead, that is the shield for your brain, use it"
What if you’ve broke your forehead before
Stop making so much sense. You're making everyone else look bad.
I love your comment man, but I can't like it because it's at a perfect 222 like score.
He's trying to change the mistakes that's why it makes sense. Sense can only be made from change. ;)
"You have to be able to breathe" thanks coach
mustafa chey .
I once asked this question to an elephant.
He punched me with his nose...
Good comment
At 62, my "playing days" are over. Having said that, I concur with Mr Ramsey's message...in over 40yrs of boxing,sparring etc I did manage to break my nose twice, so while I admit sometimes "shit happens", very often that "shit" can be avoided or at least minimized.
I have a question when your nose got broken did you had to do surgery? And how much did it effected on your look?
Becouse im about to start MMA and im really worried about my nose becouse im already have an ugly face
Im a bit disappointed you didn’t ramble about the topic for 20 minutes or so per usual but still good vid lol
TheOldRaven i think its good he does it good and fast
How to avoid 75% of punches in the nose.
Thank you Keanu Reeves and Robbie Lawlers love child
Keanu’s voice and Robbie’s face 😂
That’s spot on hahah
ThankYou and goodnight 💤
Keanu and Robbie are both EurAsian. Ramsey just looks Dutch/German.
don't say that.
After watching Ramsey talk about getting hit in the forehead
Recommended:
"UFC in China. Skull fractures. Loaded wraps."
his points still stands. Imagine if that hits your chin/nose/eye. Those things are all much more fragile than the forehead. If a blow is powerful enough to crack your forehead, it will absolutely demolish anything softer.
@@MrFalk358 I was hoping to see a sensible reply like this (Y) Thank you.
dont worry i took several punch in the foerehead during a fight my skull is undamage
😂😂😂
When I was younger I was sprint at night.
Hit a low pull up bar
Did a cartoon flip and landed with my feet above my head
If that were anything besides my forehead I wouldn't have been able to just walk home with blood all over my face
Thank you so much for all of your advice, you're easily the most knowledgeable coach I've found online. Along with Fran Sands.
Always look forward to your next upload!
this guy is so knowledgeable. Learn something every time I watch a video. His passion for fighting and teaching others to fight is incomparable.
I do this often, but still sees a lot novice and even some with some amateur experience lead with their nose. For me I do it as feel it is much better so thanks for pointing out clear. You channel deserve way more credit than it is having, and far way more subscriptions.
Solid advice. Chin down guard up.
You are a great coach.
Love these videos, not only good techniques but good explanations. keep em coming! 👌👍
This has got to be my top 5 favorite videos on RUclips the advice, the voice, and the out-tro🔥
Thanks! When I first tried to publish this video, the RUclips robots decided it had inappropriate content and flagged it.
I've been following your videos for a while now, I think you always have some good stuff to talk about.
Great advice, and one thing I always taught my students was to look through your eyebrows! By doing this you will naturally keep your head tilted down!
Love the content Brother , best channel for MMA content I have found 💪
Thanks brother, I bleed my nose out every sparring session. And I got my eye blinded last night, and a bleeding nose too, I can see black dots floating in my left eye sight now, thanks for the great tip, subscribed
Thanks Ramsey. My nose is very grateful for your wisdom 🙏🏽
An additional thing is that if you get punched in the head while being too upright, you're going to lose your balance. Learned that the hard way, had a few near misses with the wall behind me.
man that tilt the head shit really makes a difference of explanation for those confused about it lol. it seems to make more sense to say it that way.
This is a great video. I'm sorely disappointed it has only 50K views!
Happy to see Ramsey with 100K subs now!
I thought this was a drinking etiquette video... How to not get "punch" in your nose.
well drinking etiquette can come into it aslo , such as don't be an asshole when your drunk and you won't get punched in the nose. lol
Genadij Smradztoiek never anything again
In Czech we have a saying. It goes something like: "I do not understand the tongue of your tribe." People in the Anglo-sphere would probably say something like WTF? :)
Genadij Smradztoiek jn the UK we'd say 'Brexit means Brexit'
We'll have our #Czechout some day :)
Haven’t watched the video, but it’s very topical, because around the same time this video was uploaded, I was punched in the nose. Good timing mr dewey
The voice and the way you speak and carry yourself man - you just come out of a video game :D epic 7/5
Good advice, very helpful for beginners.
After a few days,my karate nationals are there and during our practices I several times got hit on my face. I could not understand my blocking mistake and was trying to find a way but after watching your video I got to know now how to defend my face
Thank you very much sir
Good advice for defensive positioning of the head. Many people make the mistake of tucking their chin in too much, as you pointed out it can restrict your airways, but it can also restrict your field of view. Can't block or evade attacks if you can't see them coming.
Perfect video bro. Really needed it
Makes me chuckle heartily every time... agree 100% with what he says though. Thanks. 👍
this has been one of my biggest feras. thank you fro the video sensei
You are one of the most honest martial artist on RUclips. I appreciate your videos and appreciate you. I have a question regarding open or closed hands. When defending yourself in a real life situation is it better to have your hands open or closed fisted. Karate has told me to keep them closed but I just wanted your take on the subject. Thank you for for your time and your honesty. May life treat you well.
Check out my next Q&A for the answer
@@RamseyDewey excellent, ty. I'm looking forward to it!
Its better to have the hands open. Closed fists will just decrease the speed of reaction. Basic knowledge tells you you gotta be relaxed.
What a great, sound, clear, perfectly delivered piece of advice. Thank you sir, you have won my humble subscription.
thanks Ramsey! Very good and usefull advice! I train Kickboxing and I really needed this one
Someone please give this guy a well paid job on radio.... Amazing voice
Great video Coach Ramsey! 🥊
Great video. Such simple but useful advise!
You are amazing for the help, I am a fighter who has broken my nose many times throughout my career and becoming a higher level fighter and an older one I am realizing that leading with the face is ineffective at best. - I appreciate knowing that I will be able to continue fighting with considerably less damage received considering, defense and mechanics are the tools of the master.
I have a question when your nose got broken did you had to do surgery? And how much did it effected on your look?
Becouse im about to start MMA and im really worried about my nose becouse i already have an ugly face
@@mahdihosseini5438
My nose has been broken since I was a teenager and I have broken it at least five to six times throughout my career, worried about muscle and staying sharp and well-managed because that matters more than having a gnarly nose from fighting.
- Just go do MMA, train fight and build yourself up and you will never regret it.
Look through your eyebrows
DEJAN JOVANOVIC I remember that from my first coach on my first night of boxing in 1977
That was excellent! Tilt the head not tuck the chin. Great way of explaining it.
Wow "leading with your forehead" rather than "tucking your chin" makes so much more sense when you actually apply it, not to mention it feels more natural and comfortable. Thank you sir.
Awesome instructions, very sound and great visuals.
Simple and effective!!! Thanks!!!
As always, great and useful advice
The perfect voice for any sport tutorial
Fantastic advice. Tilt the head, and also lateral movement. A moving target is much harder to hit clean.
I once heard a cue saying look through your eyebrows I think that's very helpful
Thank you! Very important technique!
Subscribed. Legendary advice from this model looking guy 💯💥
Dude you're awesome, thanks for advice😁
This is what happens when Kratos becomes an old spice model
Good ol' smooth voice
Thank you for the great advice
My MMA teacher years ago taught that lesson well, and to this day, I can't recall a time where I was punched in the nose. I've trained and sparred with and without headgear. I do get caught on the side of the head though, and occasionally take a shot to the chin.. So far though, my nose, I'm thankful to say, has been safe. Watch it get busted this next time out haha.
I do have a question for ya though. As I'm getting older and hopefully wiser, I'm more conscious about taking head shots. I haven't been knocked out, but I have had my bell rung well enough to see stars or stagger for a moment. Sometimes I'll go home a little dizzy. I love fighting but I also love thinking. In your opinion, how much damage do you think is being done with these "light to moderate" shots?
Yall know damn well you both never boxed
Quitw a bit. Boxers tend to get lower IQ the longer they keep boxing, due to hits on the head, severing connection between nerves, within the brain, thus having neural networking take longer, due to less intra neuronal connections, thus lowering quick thinking aka, IQ. Boxers also have a 80% higher risk of getting dementia after they exceed the age of 60
Excellent advice that most of us had to figure out for ourselves after a few fights. I would add however, that if the person in question is afraid of getting hit in the face then he shouldn’t fight. I always say, in order to hit you have to be willing to get hit.
I agree with everything you said here. Good video
Thank you,watching this with my 2 day broken nose🤧
I’m subbing for his 10/10 voice
Been finding gems like these on RUclips and now I feel like John cents
Excellent tip. Thank you
Great explanation! Thanks.
Just Discovered your channel.
Its awesome
I love how so many of Ramsey's videos are just him explaining common sense.
Thank you so much! I'm gonna try it with my training next time. Btw you should do voice acting, your voice is amazing hahahhaah
great advice thanks
They all say tilt your head and keep your hands up, but they never go in depth as to why like this man does. After 6 months training you’ll know why, after taking multiple punches to the nose. If only there was this much understanding before you started training, even to help your progression.
Watching this while getting ready to travel to training, so that I can actually follow the end bit for once, and immediately get out there and train. :D hehe
Great advice.
Hey Ramsey huge fan here! do you have any thoughts on the UFC style gloves vs the Pride/Fightips style MMA gloves when it comes to eye poking, grappling, striking pros and cons etc? once again big fan keep up the stellar work
Very good video. The first i leard from my boxing trainer is that,chin down and keep up your hands to the chin. and that protect you very well. most punches landed on the forehead as you describe it.
You're brilliant.
Subbed
"Look! Look! Those hands...will intercept!" My favorite quote so far haha.
Great vid. My MT coach always say “look through your brow” which is another way of saying it rather than tuck in your chin. I get a double chin if I tuck my chin too far 😂
You got the point I try to be save but in my country sparings are terrible
You covered everything. Wow.
great tips, if i was in shanghai I'd love to come train with you guys.
Thank you Ramsey
Thank you dude
Don't want to get your nose broke then don't go competitive. For instance. Boxers also ude their shoulder to break your nose in clinch. They use a sneaky elbow. They use a thumb. And don't bend at the waist with your head down because an uppercut will demolish your face. And you don't see the uppercut. Learn not to reflexively close your eyes every time a punch comes your way. A slight tilt of the head and your forehead will absorb some of the potential nose damage. A lot of boxers will actually give you their forehead and hope you break your hand. For goodness sake. Don't have your head down when bobbing and weaving and ducking. Your eyes should still be able to see the opponent instead of the floor.
calvin murry Yup, I don't know a single Boxer in my gym who went competitive for more than a couple of fights and never broke his nose.Just go to the hospital after and let them fix it soon, then you don't necessarily have to get the typical boxer nose.
There are competitions that are pretty light on damage
calvin murry yeah if you don’t tuck your chin and we fight you are going to sleep.
Doesn't help when all you ever hear is "head down" to the point you can never see
Ik I just can’t not look down it’s a shit habit
Thank you!
Should one not protect the brain rather than the nose and chin? My gym also teaches a chin down approach, but I feel like I'd rather sacrifice my nose and chin rather than my frontal lobe. I agree with everything else you said regarding hand placement and fighting stance. Much love to your honest approach from Denmark, boxing student Sabur.
Bro his voice is amazing
Great video!
His voice ✨️
I remember in boxing getting my first bloody nose, then every sparing session for the next two weeks I got a bloody nose then I’ve never gotten another one. I maybe think you just need to get over it and improve your defence but still know how to take a punch.
This video Is a certified classic
Thanks Ramsey!
Awesome video"!Good information.✌
You are the first person I have ever heard say "tilt the head" instead of "tuck the chin." I see what you are saying regarding breathing. I always thought that tucking the chin was to protect the chin from the knockout blow. Is your main chin defense your hand? I know some MMA fighters like Conor McGreggor and Wonderboy Thompson have their heads up...but I have seen both of them get punched in the nose too.
Conor keeps his head up because he uses a Karate stance to keep distance. Gotta see what you're doing on the outside. Doesn't matter on the inside. I was taught to stare at the chest and to not look at kicks as you check them.
The lines of defense for your chin are 1. The position of your feet relative to your opponent’s feet 2. Your hands 3. Your shoulders
@@RamseyDewey that's gonna have to be a video
ABSOLUTELY NOT
SORRY WRONG PERSON
thanks so much u saved me dude
I use the headgear with a bar across, but what he's saying is absolutely true... I myself hardly ever use headgear because I mostly train for self-defense (where you have no such headgear), but I do use it when trying to teach my students to maintain that good guard and posture under pressure when first starting because their instincts can be very bad and safety first (especially as it pertains to your ability to breathe, get proper sleep, and help prevent infection... the nose does all these things)... but ultimately, unless you plan to compete with that headgear get rid of it as soon as it is safe to do so.
Perfect, thank you
What a genius
Just got my nose broken for the second time after a surgery, which was made like 3 years ago or something, and I'm really afraid that it would be much worse if I will break it one more time, so I've bought the helmet with the nosebar. And of course head position is something you should think about everytime. Great video!
First time my nose takes a good shot, I’m buying the headgear with the bars. How have you been finding them ? Have they negatively affected your form and do they limit your vision when sparring ?
@@i4nc4 hey, i've bought one from Topboxer. First you need to get use to it, 'cause lack of vision will bring some discomfort in a sparring. But at the mean time your head movement will be improved automatically with practice. I've definately improved my head movement skills and overall defence using helmet with bar after half year of experience.
Secondly, of course it limits your vision. It would be easier to opponent to make uppercuts, cause it will be harder to see it with a nose bar. But as I've said before, you will get used to it and improve your head movement with helmet. It won't affect negatively on your form, just get use to it and you will be good :)
Why don’t you just get your nose cartilage removed?
simple and smart. tks
This is a completely different topic. But this video actually helped me learn how to use dental floss. Instead or looking straight forward I just leaned my head down and it makes it easier. Though this did help me learn how to take a punch, it also taught me how to use dental floss.
You have my favourite voice ever
Thank you sir
