      they are so hight level striker that they adapted that technique but everybody has to pay if they do fundamental wrong like anderson and conor both knock down by fucking weresler (khabib,and chrish) and look jon jones he is a shitty boxer yet no one has ok his, he alway put his hand up

      It's not an impossible style to use, also great example of a horrible example by name Conor. You could have said Roy Jones Jr. Anyway if you have faster reflexes and an know how to parry punches why waste energy holding your hands up especially when you cant bait someone into a dumb mistake? I used said style when McGregor was collecting welfare cheques. Just because you're incapable doesn't mean everyone else is.
      Can't wait for your reply with "lET mE SeE yOUr PrO fIGhTs" I'll you save you time, just because somebody isn't at the highest level of a particular talent/ability does not mean that they're incapable. I'd that was the case there's a multitude of people wasting their time and energy.

      You're clueless, McGregor only fared well against smaller people. He slipped right out of that windmill punch from the world class boxer known as the eagle eh? Silva on the other hand WAS slick with it until it became general arrogance instead of a baiting style. If you want legendary at slipping Loma, Roy Jones Jr, Izzy are all much better examples.

    @chucknorris202 5 років тому

    This is a GREAT video for beginners. I hope all beginners watch this. I agree shane I use the same type of guard, I train Muay thai; I like keeping my hands at high cheek level just below the eyes, or on my forehead if Im expecting punches to come at my head or kicks. Had class last night in fact, 3 rounds of sparring against 3 different guys, it went great. My defense was esp good, and I worked my offense well BECAUSE of my good defense - prefer catching strikes on my guard and checking kicks with leg raise or my guard. My coach was my hardest fight last night, as always since hes the best in my gym. I recommend everyone use this type of guard, Ive been using it for years and its served me well, its great for defending quickly and efficiently, its not fancy but it works, and lets you counter quickly after blocking or covering or parrying or catching. Forearms/elbows rests on your body, they should be generally straight, protecting your face and body, tucked in.
