Boxing gloves are the reason why boxers don’t have to block like that. There is a very big difference between a kick and a punch. When u have small gloves like mma gloves it’s harder to relieve yourself of the force of a strike and also there is a much bigger gap where your chin is where u could be easily hit even though you blocked
Different sports, different tactics. People need to stop being tribal and understand that different disciplines have different ways of overcoming obstacles. Doesn’t mean that other styles are inferior or anything like that, it just means that there a certain way of going about things depending on which combat sport you are a part of. This is why I like looking into multiple styles instead of just one. Nuances make all the difference.

@@Thoseboxingbros Bro, he's right about the gloves, they have bigger surface so there's less chances for a punch to get filtered through the guard. Also this person didn't insult you or your content at all and you called them "idiot"?! Childish.
@@eldudemp6195 you seem it too. Boxers wear 8oz/10oz so mentioning 12oz to seem clever made him look foolish. Bigger surface area in boxing gloves is scientifically proven to be more concussive. All there on the internet 🙂
@@ThoseboxingbrosBruh what a childish response you didn't even address their point? Bigger glove means you can guard the way you do. It's not about how it's more concussive it's about the fact that with more surface are it makes less likely that a punch might go through that pathetic guard that wouldn't work most of the time on real fights.
Can you do a video on how you would tweak your defense for bare knuckle boxing. Forget kicks and other aspects for other martial arts. Just what would you do differently with no gloves.
Whenever I do this tuck n lean style of blocking is when the big guys start trying to throw the head kick. Sometimes I'll do this on purpose so I can roll under and either throw my own or go for a body lock back take. It's really tough to get right.
Why do you guys always throw shade on mma fighters we do the same shit the guard used depends on the strike thrown a lot of mma fighters use a shell defense when in the pocket but we have a lot less surface area on the gloves so we can't hide behind it as much as a boxer i prefer to use my movement to evade strikes and a guard if I don't have enough time to get out of the way but we guard different at times because we have a lot more weapons to worry about but love your content
@@Thoseboxingbros just to correct you - mma fighters aren’t lifting their elbow to protect from a headkick when the opponent throws a left hook, that makes no sense. They do it because the gloves are significantly smaller and sometimes just the glove isn’t enough defence.
@@Thoseboxingbros So, if someone else acts immaturely, you should, too? I'm not saying you shouldn't respond, but the manner in which you did it is going to drive some viewers away, like this one.

boxing gloves hurt alot more because there alot heavier
on top of that taking a punch from a boxers hurts alot more then some mma fighting punching you
@@javanahcoffin9485not the point. This is about blocking technique not how much it hurts to get hit by what glove
@@javanahcoffin9485Yeah? Taking a kick, elbow, or knee are 10x more painful any boxing punch.
@@javanahcoffin9485gang taking a punch might hurt but getting kicked or elbowed or choked out or slammed on the floor hurts alot too

Its almost like mma has 4oz gloves and not 8-12oz
most of the time your not just punching its a mixture between kicks and hugging on the ground try sparring 12 rounds in boxing
@@javanahcoffin9485 considering I started boxing at 9 and transitioned into mma at 15 I can say I've sparred probably 400-500 boxing rounds.
@@javanahcoffin9485the fact that you called grappling "hugging" tells me you probably know nothing about this or you're a child
@@eldudemp6195 im just saying it hurts more being hit by the 8 oz boxing glove i been hit by both

Why MMA fighters cannot guard like in boxing?
1. Knees
2. Kicks
3. Takedowns
4. Smaller gloves
Knees, gloves and take downs are a valid point but not kicks
Pure boxing never worked in MMA. It is like Taekwondo. It is too specialized.
@@alexlilano1931 what are you talking about? Alot of mma fighter's favour boxing above other aspects of fighting...
That picture of Tony Fergusson was diabolical
Didnt have to show that picture of Tony being done like that😭😭😭
Heart aches everytime 😢
It’s cos of the smaller gloves in mma
Not scared of kicks just cautious and gloves are way smaller
Yeah - it feels different to hide behind 12oz gloves :D
Shows how much you actually know about boxing to comment something so idiotic…. What has 12 oz gloves got to do with anything

MMA fighters got that from boxers tho
Kicks and takedowns, which is why that leg looks tasty 😅😂.

Sean Strickland gets away with a modified Philly shell in mma
Because he's long for his division and rarely fights in close
@@joys8634 he did it to Adesanya who is 6’4 with 80 inch reach. Strickland is 6’1 with 76 reach
Didn't get away with it against an actual good boxer like Peirera lol
@@grump9283 guys who block the mma way also get ko’d by that guy
@@grump9283pereira doesn't box, he uses dim mak
yes we boxers need to go into a high guard shell with elbows tucked, like Winky Wright, or Joshua Clottey. Good tips as always guys.
You should checkout the modern martial artists videos on Winky’s high guard its pretty insightful
Great vids keep it up
Hmm.. never thought of that. Thanks again 🙏🏻

No dog man. This works if you actually know how to box. Which you continue to prove you don’t

That’s simply not true
What 😅🤣
@@Thoseboxingbros you can find plenty of examples of James Toney and other high level boxers blocking just like that
Learn the difference between raising it centimetres to block and raising elbow exposing body
@@Thoseboxingbroslike I said, you can find plenty of examples of James Toney with his elbow very high to block hooks.
@@Thoseboxingbrosnah if you have a really tight guard you can just wing a long ass hook that can hit behind the ear/back of head beterbiev style
