Thank you for all these creative striking techniques. Nine limbs. Use all of them. BTW, I found a channel by a 78 y/o boxer in England. He throws the cross in a unique very effective way. (FranksNobelArt)
@@Docinaplane Yes Frank throws the close in SHORT cross. Effective. There is no ONE way to throw a bunch or block a punch. You need all of them in your arsenal for any given circumstance.

Good video. I think most of the traditional 'blocks' are actually strikes for close in fighting. I like tiger mouth (koko), I've used it successfully to defend myself a couple of times - it's a fight finisher.
A technique I swear by, and have used more than once, is a back fist to the eye socket. You can do it easily from almost any angle, its so fast people don't see it coming, and when you hit the eye socket you overload their optic nerve and they see an explosion of stars which often makes them drop to their knees. Its a great technique to stun someone and create an opening to do something else. If they wear glasses you can just hit their glasses and it still works just fine, or you can switch to their nose.
@@matthewschafer6359 Extremely fast and very effective. I think the back -fist and the open palm are the most efficient strikes. SPEED and ACCURACY however. Thanks for the comment !
The boxer's fracture is actual caused by striking at an improper angle, not from thin bones. They're actually about the same thickness, and my fifth metacarpal is a lot thicker than my brother's second metacarpal due to my size. Plus you can shuto with it so it can't be weak. If that were the case, it would be omitted from every technique that involves it. Certain types of kung fu teach to hit with the bottom knuckles because they know the proper way to deliver it without damaging it. We tend to take our own styles and try to make sense of other styles based on our limited knowledge.
@@JEDINITE30 yes of course and mostly from the hook punch not effectively thrown as WELL AS not making a proper fist. If you listen to my words regarding the Kung Fu punch I don;t denigrate it. I don’t have limited knowledge as I have trained in multiple styles starting in 1972 in Boston, as well as had many fights. IF you can properly make a fist as I state (and did in another video about making a fist), then OF COURSE use your fist when appropriate. MOST people use gloves when sparring or doing kumite and I have seen too many not making a proper fist and when they use it in the street , they injure their hand….so I am merely recommending to these people that there are other options. I appreciate your comment. Not sure if you watched the entire video or just made some quick assumptions ? (The title is to get people to watch….and I hope you did watch the entire video) Here is the VID on proper fist ua-cam.com/video/wlDVAZc3jkE/v-deo.htmlsi=JneRLLjs13lylOA_
@@ShihanTomCallahan No. You did not mention none of the things in detail in your video as you just wrote here. So I just went off what you said. Mainly the fact that you said the fifth metacarpals being thin, which is false and shows limited knowledge. The only point of my comment with examples to back up my statement. Nice try though, for the ego lol
@@JEDINITE30 please watch the other video I sent. They were done the same day. Maybe I should have combined them. Let me know your thoughts after watching it. THOSE metacarpals ARE THINNER, especially relative to the other bones. YES of course the angle is what is dangerous. AGREE with you ….Not my EGO BTW you attacked me so I am defending myself politely due to my experience. Not sure who you are ?
@@ShihanTomCallahan didn't attack you. But if you don't like that a statement you made on the internet is being challenged with a comments in the comment section on a public forum, then disable your comments. And you might want to do some research on anatomy. They are slightly thinner in comparison on an individual to the same thickness depending on the person. And if thinness is the issue, then anyone's second and third metacarpals would break that is thinner than your or my fifth metacarpal for instance.
@@JEDINITE30 Am I not allowed to challenge you back? It’s fine you are saying what you are saying. The fact is those bones ARE indeed smaller and are MORE prone to injury when the punch is not formed or aligned properly. The point was if you don’t know how to properly MAKE a fist and have it in alignment then perhaps there are other options to use. I know you want to be stick to this ONE point but by doing so you are missing the REAL point. Your point about angels I agree with and why it is indeed dangerous to use when you are inexperienced, which is the point of the video
Actually most Kung Fu styles when they use a vertical fist do Not hit with the bottom knuckles. Only a minority of styles do it that way, like Wing Chun and Hsing-I. Notice those styles do not throw long range punches!
Insightful, valuable striking tutorial in just over 7 minutes. Concise, to the point, with excellent demonstration and detail. Thank you sir!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good delivery, Tom.
Thank you Jimbo !
Good tips!
Isshin ryu has very good bareknuckle striking methods that are very similar to old english pugilism

OSU! Thank you . Appreciate your comment. Will be making more Kyokushin street applications in the future as well.
I like the palm heel to the ear area.
effective yes Thank you for the comment
@@tomcallahan393 I used it once when I was in college. It gave me a scare because it took maybe 4 minutes for the guy to come around.
Interesting! I know that Bas Rutten swears by the forearm strike, clothesline style.
Street fighting. Yes.

@@robertmallory1877 Thanks, I know about a couple only. Thanks for the comment
Correct. And they don't break their fifth metacarpal due to the angles and structure at which they throw their punches.
My shin is my best weapon.
Yes it can be effective for sure, but this video was mostly about street fighting and the weapons from your elbow down.
