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 !

Isshin ryu has very good bareknuckle striking methods that are very similar to old english pugilism

exactly!
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.

OSU Shihan. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
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.
