    Old Bare Knuckle Boxing's Effectiveness?

    Its better for countering. Your head may be closer to your opponent, but your making him aim at your center line while having more space to actually move your head off the center (via fading back or slippin). Basically its a bait.

    Old Bare Knuckle Boxing's Effectiveness?

    Well your head IS of off the center line but your opponent can still aim his right hand a bit downward if hes expecting you to be there all the time. Its easy to get stuck on that back foot. Thats why I prefer to mix it up with a front foot heavy stance sometimes, which also lends itself...

    Francis Ngannou's striking technique

    The fight sucked tbh (apart from the first round), from both sides. Ngannou with the Bangboose fight IQ and Stipe with the lay n pray on the last rounds. Francis has a GOAT chin tho. He got hit flush with punches that would probably sleep any HW on the roster, and didnt even flinch.

    Kattar vs Burgos was a treat!

    That jab from Kattar was lightning fast and had no tell at all. He would pop it straight from the shoulder and Burgos couldnt even see it, he tried to slip it all night and failed most of the time...

    Ortho or Southpaw Dilemma

    Maybe not much in boxing, but there are tons in KB. Andy Ristie (the only one to KO Petrosyan), Cedric Doumbe, etc.

    Best Defensive Kickboxers

    For strictly kickboxing and newer era fighters, Cedric Doumbe. He won 2 times against Nicky Hotzen (and got the Glory title) but recently lost a very close split decision to Murthel Groenhart.

    UFC on Fox 26 Breakdown: the Dominance of Rafael dos Anjos

    I think it was the back (left) leg that was injured tho. If RDA did the damage then props to him, but if it was a freak injury maybe Lawler has a better chance in a rematch. He was literally fighting on 1 leg the last 2 rounds lol

    Max Holloway: The Best Bodysnatcher in MMA Part 2

    Aldo learned nothing from his last fight with Max, he should've gone the McGregor approach vs Nate Diaz, another iron chinned cardio machine. Instead he tries to KO him with every punch and got suckered into a war at the end, just what those type of fighters want so they can drown you. The leg...

    [Muay Thai] How to stop backing up while sparring?

    You need to set up your pivots with movement. What I mean is, if your circling to the left and hes about to catch you, instead of pivoting to the left where hes anticipating your movement, pivot right and change directions suddenly, that will mess up his rhythm. Pivoting right is a bit trickier...

    Keeping lead hand in sticking out in front?

    Ive found more sucess actually grabbing that lead hand instead of smashing it down, if you just smash it they can keep backing off or worse they can counter you since they know your in range. But if you grab it they have nowhere to go, pretty sure this is not legal in boxing tho, only MT/MMA.

    Having trouble controlling the center line/moving to my left

    Its also important to circle both ways IMO. If you keep circling to one side, even if your doing it right, your gonna get too predictable and get cut off eventually. To the OP, you can pivot jab or turn southpaw. Check out how Willie Pep did it:

    How the Mayweathers teach blocking

    The first block is similar to how Id block a straight right, altho I use the forearm and try to roll/deflect the punch. Havent seen that stif arm left hook block before tho, I mainly just use the crazy monkey and it works pretty good as long as your aiming your blocks right and deflecting the...
