Honestly , I’ve never seen a boxing trainer give such great details for all his teachings. I wanted to learn how to put more pop in my hooks and I have this video to thank ! Great video 👍🏼
The left hook is the hardest punch in boxing to teach and the hardest punch in boxing to learn, because of the different mechanics involved. The great old school trainers call the hook a pull punch, meaning everything comes across and your pulling the punch back to your rear foot. If you miss the hook you can still come back with a straight right or uppercut. According to the old school trainers, before you throw the hook you must first put yourself in a position to throw the hook. Taking your head over your right knee turning your left heel out and bringing everything across to your back foot. Some guys have what you call a live left hook like Oscar De La La Hoya, Phoenix Trinidad, Jeff Hook Lacey, these guys could throw the hook from any position and didn't have to be in the proper position to throw the hook. The hook is not just thrown from your hip only but it helps. Many different philosophies on how to throw the left hook. You can't go wrong with old school proper fundamentals and techniques becoming fundamentally and technically correct.
I love this technique, I generate power for my hook from my torso and shoulder. Time to re-learn how to throw a hook. The thing that I like the most with this technique is that you go back to balance very quick giving you more time to react to what your opponent is doing whether it be blocking, slipping, counter punching, etc. You will be in ready mode quicker than your opponent.
This is the best dude I have seen . He not trying to promote himself , or look cool / sound cool . Straight facts and fundamentals that I have never come across . Nothing super fancy or difficult just pure knowledge ! I love it ! Ps I’m not a boxer so for all I know it bull but doesn’t look it .
Man i have been applying yourtechniques for the past few months and my balance and power is insane. I know i commented before on another vid but i just had to say great work!
Omar Mendoza this dudes OBVIOUSLY talking about a horizontal elbow. Not a 6-12 not a 12-6, not a spinning elbow. And a proper horizontal elbow actually goes at a downward angle. GO LEARN SOME MUAY THAI.
@@ssgssjb9905 hooks can have a downward trajectory. Sagat Petchyindee and Manny Pacqiauo are examples. No need to be rude, Muay Thai is all about respect. Just from one Nak Muay to another:)
Keep the same stance, and bend at the knees. Same punch form, keeping your balance and not overpowering or overreaching, Yada yada. He doesn’t have a specific video for it, but he covers it in most of the footwork ones.
Marvin, You are very impressive as a coach. Where are you located? Are you in California? I would very much like to connect with you. I have a new line of training equipment for fighters that I would like to get your opinion on. If you like it, I would be happy to give you a couple sets.
Hey, I'm Chris, I used to train with Marvin before I moved. He still teaches at CSW, and that is located at 4080 North Palm Street #801, Fullerton, California 92835. This isn't his channel a friend film him and he ask Marvin if it's ok to upload it on youtube, but what he teaches should be more famous than what it is now, his true boxing system is different than all the other disciplines I've ever trained, fighting and life isn't choreographed, what he teaches is never choreographed, he teaches to learn to adjust. Marvin emphasize on balance, form, always keeping your rifle on your opponent, always moving your feet. He teaches to be a weapon not a target, so blocking or checking is a being like a heavy bag or a target, people who Bob and weaves are a moving target. So than be a weapon, I can go on but people should learn from him.
The moment the bell rings you must lead and start suppressing your opponents with jabs. If you wait for the action to start, you're a stationary target. So be a moving weapon. While you are moving to the opposite direction of your opponent's power hand, you should also fire multiple jabs. The point is you should be the one leading and they are the ones who are occupied with incoming shots, not the other way around. If they do fire shots at you at the same time you are doing this, like a overhand right or a wide hook, lower your stance or position (so duck) but still be balance and moving to the opposite direction of their power hand and fire at their body. Once that punch has passed you, raise your position or stance (stand up) and still be moving and firing. Or if they throw a wide haymaker and if you throw a straight jab to their face, your linear clean jab will score before his wide curvature shot will. You can score to their face and than duck, but you have to be moving and firing. Be a suppressing moving weapon.
This is just a short hook not a real hook, its for speed or out boxers,the further back and faster you move it the stronger it will be, but it gives your opponent more time to react.
this brother is giving all his knowledge to the enemy. why dont you give your knowledge to your own people and brothers. you are making your enemy more powerful to beat us and defeat us. smh. stockholm syndrome at its finest.
This guy is phenomenal. Is he still teaching???
Againan Again I read in another comment he’s passed away.....
He just posted a couple of days ago from the Boxing seminar after 8 years of not posting anything. He is back I think.
@@korranis1 he just started reposting though 🤔
@@korranis1 whoever said that he passed away is a loser.
That’s what I said

DAMN THAT HOOK WAS QUICK ON SOLID FOES
COACH YOU THROW THAT HOOK WITH SWIFTNESS
great teacher, this is proper technique. no need for the long looping hook, that is just an arm punch
Nikolaij Brouiller what lopping punches?

Exactly
Your technique and your teaching is amazing, thanks for your videos!
Coach every time I watch your videos is eye-opening... I tell you what coach.. you lower and raise my ego w this knowledge.

Very informative. Much appreciated.
Best video of 2021
Wow
Two great coaches 😮
Learning something new everyday. Can't wait to get back in the gym!
Great video love going to the gym with better tips with the help of these videos 🙏
Man i have been applying yourtechniques for the past few months and my balance and power is insane. I know i commented before on another vid but i just had to say great work!
Great coach 🥊
Genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A good hook can turn into an elbow shot
LEGION 74 elbows go at a downward angle. Hooks don’t.
@@ssgssjb9905 elbows also go side ways. freddy roach, if a good hook misses the elbow lands.
wowantonlavey not a proper elbow. Go learn some must Thai.
Omar Mendoza this dudes OBVIOUSLY talking about a horizontal elbow. Not a 6-12 not a 12-6, not a spinning elbow. And a proper horizontal elbow actually goes at a downward angle. GO LEARN SOME MUAY THAI.

Brilliant teacher
Man you're a cool dude marvin cook. I like your teaching style!
I wish there was a boxing gym next to me like this
this is a proper hook those of you who say otherwise don't know shit about boxing
Tks for the details
So true look at how mine Tyson would fight it would all be short but lethal
Ahhh the nuts n bolts
great coach
Do any of the videos cover the right hook? Alone or as part of a combination
Keep them elbows in when your guarding Marvin. Your breadbasket is looking like steak.
What about body shots in a True Boxing stance?
JADITV philly shell
Keep the same stance, and bend at the knees. Same punch form, keeping your balance and not overpowering or overreaching, Yada yada. He doesn’t have a specific video for it, but he covers it in most of the footwork ones.
👍
CaMe at the right time in my life
Looping hooks are easy to expose just duck and slip inside for a big body shot their already off balance depending on how long of a hook they threw
1:07 Footwork on the 12. (while stepping.moving.)
1:12 " " 123. (while moving & pivot. 12 & 3 pivot. All in the hips.)

Thank you for your response. I think he's a great teacher from what I've seen. I'll have to drive up and meet him.

@@CRS4441 I know this is from a long time ago but what is his philosophy with the stance against low kicks and takedowns?
@@JingShenKuoshu ......I see that this comment was made 4 years ago, did you see him yet ?
Marvin is correct, the short hook much more dangerous.
@ 1:21 did the student hit marvin 😄😄😄
Are you a Krav Magician?
Wow Marvin every video of yours is a mindfuck.
3 people think they know how to throw a hook.
