Setting up the body punch

0 users have hit this. Have You? Login or Register

In this example I just throw a single punch, It could be a multiple punch combo or a single punch. The Idea is to get your opponent to cover up, and then go to the body.

  • Step 1
  • Seth and I square off
  • Step 2
  • I throw a lead right to the head, my hope is that Seth will cover to protect his head. Which in this example, he does.
  • Step 3
  • I quickly step to the outside with my left leg and drop my left shoulder over my left knee as I slightly pivot my left shoulder back. (If I needed to close distance, I could also slide in)
  • Step 4
  • driving off my left foot, I drive my hip in and deliver my left punch to the body.

Lucky is the man who never has to confront what he is truly capable of.

AHHHH! I misspelled "USED".

Josh, what was your set up on this punch?

The difference is Josh didn't lean his head way outside asking for a knee. Dropping your level but keeping your head up is a safer way to hit the body when knees to the head are in play.

Good Point whiteshark! one of the many differences between boxing and MMA.

I would either sprawl or....
not do what his oppenent did, which was nothing

Right cross to the head Chaz. If they are biting hard on it, I can feint the cross and slip right to the body hook.

Kick him in the balls on step 3 !

Style doesn't matter, KNOWLEDGE & SKILL matter ! ! !

is it just me, or does he kinda look like the bad guy from the karate kid. COBRA KAI DOJO 4 LIFE!
