Well that's because Tyson had a world renowned boxing coach who also coached a former heavyweight champion. You, and the other people in the comments are definitely not in the same shoes. LOL
Mike got cus + mike is fundamentally sound and very technical he mastered rolling / slipping / shifts nit just going side to side like the ones we see in our gyms
Come on guys , it’s pretty much common sense . You must first learn the rules / basics , only then you can create your own style. Tyson was taught by Cus , as the previous commenter as stated, therefore Tyson knew basic fundamentals of boxing before learning the peekaboo style … hajime no ippp story line also has some similarities, I think .
This is so true. As someone who learned peekaboo Tyson style. A lot of people just mimicking and imitate the set patterns without thinking how to use it functionally. The most dangerous boxers are ones who didn’t learn peekaboo for the flash but actually use it sparingly to dodge and counter, not imitate Tyson stance bob and weave the whole time.
@@rudolfogar1886 wrong it was there before Cus as well. I’m talking people who specifically are using it copying Mike Tyson. If it’s really functional you won’t just train the same sequence as Mike Tyson might do in one of his interviews and training videos. Boxers who really have learned peek a boo use it like any other defensive technique. Not like a choreographed sequence.
Favorite thing about this channel lowkey has to be the Coach Carter coaching style. "I had a sister named Diane. She was always on my case about everything." "I'm in a ditch and you need to ditch the Peekaboo style." That shit on the same level and I just love it.
Well, the full peekaboo style included what is referred to as spring, essentially changing angles and position relative to your opponent.. Tyson didn't just go in forward And part of cus' method, was explosive combos, which get executed when youve done the spring Peekaboo ala Tyson was more than just high hands, low body.. it wasn't just a type of guard, it also had alot of psychology drilled into it, in short, it's essence was all about surprising your opponent
But I definitely agree with mastering the basics first, in fact (at least the way I see it) as cus D'Amato style is more of a philosophy vs a method/guard style that any dummy hand picks as their style of the week, the basic front stance is what cus' fighters did do, when they fighting on the outside, not utilising the peekaboo, which is all close-mid range We all understand some joe young wants to try peekaboo one day, and then drop it like it's "not for them" imo cus' taught peekaboo style is not about that.. there were fighters under his stable that did peekaboo, but look "conventional" like Edwin Rosario, Wilfred benitez, those of which you will not describe as peekaboo, but you definitely see the 'philosophy' and method in those fighters sometimes
Exactly, theres a lot to it and its pretty advanced. There's so many prerequisite skills to master before even trying to fight with the style. Tyson could do it bcs as we know now he was an amazing boxer in many ways. Most people aren't that though. Hence just start with the basics and let yourself grow into a style naturally.
Many people forget the peekaboo is very difficult and unorthodox and you need a coach who knows the style to be able do do it correctly. So if you dont then just give up on it 🤷🏻♂️
If you wanna do Mike Tyson peekaboo style he said on an interview that you need to be square facing your opponent instead on on an angle so you can move left and right faster instead of forward an backwards. Peakaboo style is a form of brawling which means the user most of the type pressures forward so there’s really no need to keep that back foot, just have good balance.
True because this style is for just anyone. You honestly have to be a great athlete to fight in this style for long rds and be successful. It's good to incorporate some of the movements but theirs only one Mike Tyson
@@ericgatlin6414 i said it once and ill say it again, you can only effectively learn the peek a boo style or any style from a trainer that knows it and how to practition it. Not from watching youtube. So people should stop trying to be Mike, and find their own style.
I agree. I see a lot of nerds at the gym learning boxing cause of some boxing anime, and they get wreck trying to pull some anime shtt during sparring 🤦♂️
The biggest misconception about Tyson's style is that it revolves around a squared up stance. The reality is that his stance is a regular boxing stance that would appear to change because of how he would move in relationship to his opponent. He would lateral shift deep towards their backhand, making it appear that him and his opponent are now in a "square" stance, leaving them BOTH open for attack. This suits Tyson because of his handspeed and other advantages. There is no such thing as "peekaboo" style boxing. Cus NEVER called it that, the media did. Good boxing is good boxing, period. The only reason it looked the way it did is because Cus's fighters happened to be so good that they could face opponents even if they were at a size disadvantage. This led to Cus's students relying on their elusiveness to fight, which made it look a certain way that the media would later call "peakaboo." Make no mistake, this style of boxing has nothing whatsoever to do with relying on what you saw Tyson do, it works for all body types and all matchups.
That's why most people copying mike Tyson's style get punched in sparring, and sometimes they can't even get close to the opponent, because they were always square stance, dodging and waving all the time😂
Plus it took Cus years to perfect it culminating with Mike . If you look at José Torres it looked nothing like it would later (the style) tryna mimic the techniques without a coach who is versed in it is not gonna work. There are some coaches that are grown now that used to train at Catskills with cus back in the day, a few of them teach it
Imma keep it real w I chief I don’t think the greats quote on quote “mastered” shit before they moved onto their unique fighting styles, I feel like they developed their own style pretty much from the beginning
Hey. I’ve been boxing from a peek a boo stance for 7 years. To anyone trying to adopt this style. Stamina, head movement and shifting are your best friends. If you don’t master these three things you will never successfully be able to adopt the style.
I couldn’t get my stance right which effected my footwork -the foot to heel explanation and example has made me understand far better then any coach has explained to me which often left me feeling humiliated frustrated and feeling dumb - Now I can see the connection it’s stamped in my mind Thank you guys! ❤
couldn’t agree more mike tyson did well with the peekaboo style because his coach was cus d’amato, and because he was mike tyson there’s a reason it’s so rare to see a successful boxer use this style, especially in the modern age
It even explains in the anime that this style of fighting requires immense lower body strength and mobility. They even touched on the fact that ippo was working on a boat growing up and this vastly increased his balance and natural strength in general half of the anime is about how hard he has to train people want to learn this style don't understand that it's 90 percent lower body along with perfect control of rotation of hips. It's one of the most demanding fighting styles even in the anime they reference the fact that he should not use it repeatedly though a fight because it's a double edge sword you use momentum to increase power but if you get caught you have your entire body weight being forced into a counter and it's likely going to knock you out.
I agree about the peek a boo style is only good if you have knock out power like Mike Tyson other wise all the body movements in this style will gas you out early. Try using the peek a boo style for three rounds straight and see how your body feels. .
New to boxing, but ive found relative success with it. Of course its befause im not fighting genuine trained boxers. But if found some good success with the style
Me too, spent the first few months using orthodox and got my ass kicked all the time until I realised I had short arms and started pressure fighting with peekaboo style. Then everything clicked.
Wrong!!!! Both hands MUST be close to your face if bot you can get hit. 😂😂😂😂 Guys don't listen to these bozos 🤡 I train at Wild card boxing gym owned by Freddie Roach the boxing coach of Manny Pacquiao. 💯
Great advice. The only thing I will say is don't use the orthodox stance if you truly want to master the peakaboo. Both stances are very different. The peakaboo is a horse stance, which is at a flat torso to hips facing the opponent. But, you definitely need to master your stance or you will be off balance when shifting and slipping punches from your opponent. You have a new subscriber too❤!
@@Thoseboxingbrosbecause you are missleading people by dismissing one of the most effective styles in boxing if perfected. Mike Tyson is the proof for that
@@davidchaki6736 most effective styles in boxing 😂😩go and tell us 10 fighters who have been successful with this most effective style in boxing. Stop watching boxing on social media and go watch it properly
@@davidchaki6736ok but if a newbie try’s without proper knowledge on footwork or a guard they’re gonna get knocked out better to learn basics and use what works for you after.
the underrated part of Mike Tyson's peekaboo (yes, Tyson's, because Patterson's was different) is that he is also comfortable in the southpaw. When his opponents sometimes overstep to his right, he doesnt oivot back to orthodox, he just sends them to the abyss with a lead right hook.
The reason why a lot of people don’t get on with the peekaboo style is because it’s designed for a very small niche of boxers. It’s designed for short but heavy boxers as they are more likely to face taller opponents. This means that when ducking low your bringing your opponents punches downwards opening up the jaw. It also means that you can get in underneath your opponent and that your centre of mass is lowered. Most boxers are very lean and therefore don’t have the structure tall meaning they don’t have the ability to get low or fat meaning they don’t have the speed necessary for peekaboo
Ippo was the reason I did boxing as exercise, but knowing why things move as they should just improve our form and execution. Never stop learning, for stopping is like saying "I don't want to beat my shadow."
Yes very true it takes a whole bunch of stamina, core strength, quad strength shoulder strength, hip rotation, footwork, head movement, heart, patience, skill and consistency to perform the Cus D'Amato peekaboo stance down to a T otherwise if performed correctly without enough training you will feel like you're running a marathon
For reference, the peekaboo is basically constantly switching stances to apply pressure. Meaning you should have some experience with both orthodox and southpaw stances and the awareness of when to bring your yoursef away from the midline. It's so square you need some deep stamina to keep it up and even after that you need to have the power to back up the invasion of the in range. Physiological intimidation is also a huge factor in helping you corner your opponent. In conclusion, Tyson was a monster that fit the style to a T, he didnt need to switch out of it because of his unique advantages, it just worked.
This is great advice. People are so eager to copy, but it's not good for you. Don't do what worked for Tyson, do what works for you. For example, Patterson and Tyson both used peekaboo to incredible effect, but their styles still varied a lot. Because they knew what worked for them. Find what works for you, don't just copy.
Before attempting to learn Hitman style, I must give you a warning. Himan style leaves your left wide open. You sacrifice your defense for offense. Is it a risk you want to take?
The peekaboo style isn’t a bad form, you just have to practice and you practice for every style/form to perfect it. It never always is easy nor effective at first.
That one dude yapping bout who inefficient the peekaboo style is while my alter ego in the shower just doing the peekaboo style not giving a fuck bout what he said
This was some goofy ahh bobing peekaboo shet Mike Bob and weave by moving his legs not his hips …legs for defence and hips for punching that’s it and it pretty much worked for me
Sometimes I think Tyson was using peekaboo just to find a way to handle his constant nervousness and striking energy. When his opponents didn't last long enough for him to use it completely. Well, being serious, peekaboo is advanced thing.
De echo la espalda es muy necesaria para la fuerza de los golpes ya que la fuera que sostiene las manos proviene desde la espalda y despues va a los hombros, cuando hacia sombra con peso me dolian bastante los dorsales, ya q se gira todo al golpear
durante toda la carrera de tyson intentaron meterle un oper con el peekaboo style que tenia pero solo lo graron cuando ya estaba viejo ese estilo es bastante funciona y mas cuando eres mas pequeño que el rival no del mismo tamaño como en su ejemplo
everyone here say he's wrong is unexperienced, the peek a boo style did a lot of stuff you'd need boxing experience from. Its like trying to draw the details of a drawing without having a base
The peak-a-boo style only works against fighting taller opponents with longer reach, Via why mike Tyson had a short reach for heavyweight and not as tall as a heavyweight, peak-a-boo helps a lot of shorter fighter and I’ve used it before and it works great for me, I do have to say don’t use it against someone similar height as you, Mike Tyson 5”10 use it against fighter that were between 6”3-6”6 with longer reach, tyson is also heavyweight champion with that style
Height isn’t what matters, it’s the reach that does. I’m 5’11 but i have short arms and often get out ranged by people shorter than me. Peekaboo was a game changer for me, even against shorter sparring partners. My favourite people to spar are the really tall and lanky ones though thats definitely where the style shines the most.
I’m going to ignore this reasonable advice and keep pretending I’m Mike Tyson in his prime instead thanks
Yeah these guys know nothing. I am next to Mike Tyson.

Yes very true it takes a whole bunch of stamina, core strength, quad strength shoulder strength, hip rotation, footwork, head movement, heart, patience, skill and consistency to perform the Cus D'Amato peekaboo stance down to a T otherwise if performed correctly without enough training you will feel like you're running a marathon
I have successfully prevented my opponent to gain a point with this
I like how you slowed down your movements and punches enough for us plebs so our normal eyes can follow your sick godspeed movements
For reference, the peekaboo is basically constantly switching stances to apply pressure. Meaning you should have some experience with both orthodox and southpaw stances and the awareness of when to bring your yoursef away from the midline.

Sometimes I think Tyson was using peekaboo just to find a way to handle his constant nervousness and striking energy. When his opponents didn't last long enough for him to use it completely. Well, being serious, peekaboo is advanced thing.
Good this 2 short and straight to the point 👍
Bro is the little mac the man of the left.
I don't know, it is just that when I try peekaboo everything feels right, i feel lighter, more explosive and with more coordination and balance.
De echo la espalda es muy necesaria para la fuerza de los golpes ya que la fuera que sostiene las manos proviene desde la espalda y despues va a los hombros, cuando hacia sombra con peso me dolian bastante los dorsales, ya q se gira todo al golpear
Dont forget the dark sunglasses !!
My uncle was always trying to teach me this shit after he introduced me to boxing, i got fucked up. I just use a long guard now
That police car😳
Ippo got me grinding 💪🏾🔥
durante toda la carrera de tyson intentaron meterle un oper con el peekaboo style que tenia pero solo lo graron cuando ya estaba viejo ese estilo es bastante funciona y mas cuando eres mas pequeño que el rival no del mismo tamaño como en su ejemplo
I always used the hitman style and it works perfectly as I'm 6,0ft
reason why i got into boxing , been a good 2 years ive had 5 fights and had chances to spar with a europe silver medalist
everyone here say he's wrong is unexperienced, the peek a boo style did a lot of stuff you'd need boxing experience from. Its like trying to draw the details of a drawing without having a base
The peak-a-boo style only works against fighting taller opponents with longer reach, Via why mike Tyson had a short reach for heavyweight and not as tall as a heavyweight, peak-a-boo helps a lot of shorter fighter and I’ve used it before and it works great for me, I do have to say don’t use it against someone similar height as you, Mike Tyson 5”10 use it against fighter that were between 6”3-6”6 with longer reach, tyson is also heavyweight champion with that style
Height isn’t what matters, it’s the reach that does. I’m 5’11 but i have short arms and often get out ranged by people shorter than me. Peekaboo was a game changer for me, even against shorter sparring partners. My favourite people to spar are the really tall and lanky ones though thats definitely where the style shines the most.
