Basically a Karate Lunge Punch with a high guard for MMA, Ive always said more fight should be following and chasing down opponents with this technique , also can be called a switching cross OSS
@@hieupham7656 I meant the principal of the straight blast, straight punches thrown in succession straight down the middle. What Vitor Belfort did in the UFC was more of the classical vertical punch. That said it's more of a style thing, from what I've seen. Also functionally the vertical fist doesn't appear to be superior in anyway to other combat sports/ boxing strikes. In the sensor tests I've seen, for both Lbs per square inch and speed. The punch with your fist delivered at a 45% angled measurably hits harder than both a corkscrew style punching and Lee's JKD/Wing Chun vertical punch!
@@0713mas Look at straightblast breakdown and you will see, JKD: power comes from hips, not leg, hand at the middle of the torso, not cover the face, and punches are independent with legs not synchronized. Vertical punches are great for boxing(Manny Pacquiao), because it is easier to go through high guard.
@@hieupham7656 I'm aware that punching power comes from the legs, hip /waist. Obviously different punching variations and combinations are useful, including vertical punches.
Great instructional video, just as always. I practiced this as if i'm firing straight left - straight right ... etc. It's interesting how you pointed out that we can mix it with overhand, hook, or uppercut variations. I look forward to the next videos. :)
Thomas Kiely Thomas, not like the formal gym, but gym at the university that i'm attending. On rare occasions, my friend (who debuted in amateur MMA organization) invited me to train with him. I love learning from anyone, strangers, friends, video instructions, etc. How about you? Do you also train? :)
KrnSniper01 ok cool. i was just wondering because i thought u were maybe just learning from youtube and practacing all these moves in the air. which is a terrible way to try to learn, you wont learn anything. but if you are training regularly you will be able to practice these techniques in sparring or on the bag. to answer your question , yes i used to train in muay thai and jiu jutsu. planning on starting again in the next couple years. there both so much fun.
It's called the march step, it's from shooto-box and this step has roots in luta livre!!! Brazilians like Vitor, Wanderlei, Shogun don't give a fuck about Wing-chun, which has no practical application in a real fight!!
It's a really great technique, but if you guys want to check it out with a fighter that used to use it a lot, then look at this video with Lyoto Machida and pay attention to the first couple minutes. Lyoto, in my opinion, is the king of the blitz! ua-cam.com/video/urhdB5aZTgQ/v-deo.html
Wrong. This is was when he was 19yr old when he was trying qualify for Brazilian national boxing team. He didn't incorporate karate in his arsenal until Machida came 1 decade 1/2 later after Silva fight.

Yup! That's JKD Striaght Blast alright!
@@0713mas StraightBlast, what a joke! do you see his punches rotate like straightblast ?

Karate point sparring uses this technique a lot. Whoever does point kumite should definitely study this technique
I know this covers space really well. Gives a new range to punches.
I used this a lot early on in my sparring training when transitioning from kyokushin (no head punches) to muay thai and mma boxing
Learn something new every day
If memory serves, this is sorta what Buster Douglas did to Mike Tyson at the end of the tenth round, no?
Beautiful it’s exactly what I thought it would be

Cheers KrnSniper01! We'll be doing a lot of BJJ techniques in the next few videos. Some brand new stuff!
practicing? are u training muay thai or boxing at a gym aswell?

karate / kickboxing point fight move very effective
Awesome
This is the JKD straight blast.
Is the tyron woodley blitz the same mechanics?
+evadesc Great questions! We'll check with Shawn next time we see him:) We know that Tyron generally starts his with a takedown feint.
One of wing chun techniques in MMA
@YoMama haha😑
Yeah loyto is the master
This is basically the MMA/boxing version of the WIng Chun Straigh Blast.
The effective version?
It's called the march step, it's from shooto-box and this step has roots in luta livre!!! Brazilians like Vitor, Wanderlei, Shogun don't give a fuck about Wing-chun, which has no practical application in a real fight!!

Awesome video Laki Nua! Definitely worth a watch for anybody who hasn't seen it.
Laki Nua Horiguchi has the best blitz imo.
Vitor already said that he trained karate and boxing techniques to apply these blows ...
Wrong. This is was when he was 19yr old when he was trying qualify for Brazilian national boxing team. He didn't incorporate karate in his arsenal until Machida came 1 decade 1/2 later after Silva fight.
Makes no sense...
Other guy is an absolute beast with world class kickboxing.
Dissapointed
Haha, Jack Hagley himself! Anytime you want to demonstrate some of your awesome striking techniques, we'd be honored!:)
