    Chuck was the fighter to make me work non stop on my left hook. His torque and footwork. I realized the left hook was so much better than a straight right cross due to the quickness and less-telling punching technique. Tyson showed me how to destroy with body hooks.

      @@tommcalpine6062 tko loss in the first round lol, got ground and pounded. Got a lot to learn. I'm disappointed sure but just gotta get back up. What was kind of nice was my team telling me about their first losses. Which took the sting out of my loss a bit and even more so when they won their fights that day. Knowing that they got back up and kept working. My coach who I have a ton of respect for told me about his first loss. When he was cutting the tape off my gloves he says, "hey at least you're still conscious. My first loss all I remember is being ground and pounded and then I woke up in the corner asking what happened. Hang in there bud you'll get better."
      After taking some time off I've attacked my workouts with a diffrent kind of intensity, it's weird. I mean I've had focus in my workouts but even more so now. Gonna focus on grappling and jiu jitsu tournaments since the ground game is a huge thing I need to work on. Still gonna spar in mma with my team to keep learning but I know I have to get way better if I want to fight again. Gonna enjoy the journey until then.
      Thanks for asking man, it felt good to write all that out. I hope you're having a good day and take care out there.

    @Krakaet 5 років тому +3

    Honestly, this is very good advice for boxers looking to get into MMA. Second to the flaw of not being able to check kicks properly because of a staggered stance, boxers often suffer from not knowing how to avoid being taken to the ground easily. To the point where if their opponent knows that they have a boxing background, they will almost certainly go right for the legs first to get an easy takedown. Being able to sprawl out of it and resume striking is leaps and bounds better than being taken to the ground where the skillset is nonexistent.

      @16945pie 3 роки тому +1

      what a stupid comment. It took Chuck over 8 years of wrestling, 4 at the divison 1 level, to master the ability to sprawl on super dominant wrestlers. It's not just something that you pick up, it takes years and years of practice, and even then you're not guaranteed to stop all takedowns (Horn and Cotoure both took down, and subsequently finished Chuck). Seeing as Tyson had literally zero wrestling training it's safe to say he'd be handled like the rest of strikers that transition to MMA with no wrestling background: obliterated as soon as a decent wrestler gets ahold of them
