First off, great job reading your opponent-you’re seeing the punches coming and slipping out of the way. However, your hooks are slapping rather than cutting through his guard. Focus on turning your punches over and connecting with your knuckles, not the palm (00:49-00:53, 1:45-1:47). You would’ve landed clean if those hooks were tighter. When going low, be careful not to drop your hands-it leaves you open to counters (00:56-00:57, 2:05-2:07). You’re still turning over on your heel sometimes (2:24). In combos, you tend to either throw all straights or all hooks. To land effectively, mix it up. If he’s guarding straight punches, throw a straight to set him up, then follow with a hook where he’s not blocking (3:16-3:19, 2:05-2:07). When he pressures you, try not to panic and backpedal. He’s chasing without much guard, so use your jab to disrupt him and control the distance (3:26-3:37, 4:33-4:37). Jabs are great for keeping aggressive opponents off balance and setting up counters. Keep working champ-you’re improving a lot!
yo thanks once again. For the hook, I know what you mean but I’ve been trying to copy Ryan Garcia’s left hook. Which I’ve learned from boxing breakdowns where he throws his hook like a slap. Yeah, I dropped my guard multiple times cause of how gassed I was. We worked out before sparring and this was my first time doing 2 rounds of any sparring (tkd or boxing) in a while 😅
