      ​@Yellow Joe negative! PRIME Roy Jones Jr. is the most advanced boxer to this date. Just was never meant to be a heavyweight. He maxes his body out. That's why he said he would never advise anyone to do that again. This man transcended like 4-5 weight classes. The body ain't meant to be manipulated that way. It can only take so much. He was really legit 50-0 technically

    Lol funny enough, around year 3 of my 19 year boxing journey. I learned what Roy mentioned here by playing 2D fighting games. There’s typically a dash forward and backwards In games like street fighter and even tekken. I used to use that a lot to create openings after opponents attacks. I thought to myself “ I wonder if this would work in the ring” and the rest was history.

    He’s partially right. A young man loses his legs in his 30’s and if he doesn’t have great head movement he’ll struggle in his later years. This is why Jones spent most of his fights on the canvas in his later years and guys like Mayweather, Tony, and Hopkins fought well in their later years due to having great head movement.

    • @kingbucketz182
      @kingbucketz182 Рік тому

      You fight for as long as those guys fought, you start understanding safe zones and punch probably based on position. In other words… you’re able to easily predict what punches will come out based on what position you’re sitting in. Veterans live off stuff like that and they can, because someone like a prime Roy was a complete anomaly. Bernard Hopkins went the rest of his whole career without ever facing anything close to the speed and athletic ability of Roy. Yeah great hand speed will dominate head movement all day, but there aren’t many guys with that level of hand speed.

    True for the small movements, but when Roy, Ali, Sugar Ray. And every other great mover, use the front foot first to move backwards. It's something that they naturally do when they have to move very fast and also helps you move further from your opponent. Go and watch there footwork. For all you skeptics.

      Yes we know that (basic Boxing) but your back leg is your rudder in a fight

      Push off the front foot, but the back foot always moves first. Otherwise you’ll just be walking backwards.

    I wish I could hear this one better. Back foot is defense?

    Idk, they're ALL defense to me. Moving the feet, slipping, bobbing & weaving, feints, changing angles.
    Also isn't it easier to turn defense into offense (counter-punch) by slipping & bobbing vs back pedalling?
    Back pedalling gets u out of range, but then u also can't reach your opponent. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    What he say not to keep hands up, i cannot understood. About steping back seems like karate defence, but what when in corner, i cannot get it.

      He didn't say not to put your hands up, he said the most important defense or "real" defense is in controlling the back foot.
