I hadn't really paid attention to boxing for a few years and my brother introduced me to Naoya Inoue. That WBSS Final against Nonito Donaire is one of the best fights I have ever seen in a Boxing ring.
That 4 boxer you talk about .if usualy Maximum Basic boxing skill has 10 level. All of them have basic skill point in 100 😂😂😂. They dont skip any basic boxing class
Inoue has made the body shot, particularly to the liver, such a lethal weapon that it's curious why more boxers don't use it like that. A high number of his KOs have come from those lethal body shots. I've even seen him throw nothing but body shots once he's hurt an opponent, just completely ignoring the head...like he's really enjoying digging into the liver and causing suffering. His knockout of Donaire (yes, it was a KO but the lame ref let Donaire get back up after the 10 count, and after allowing Donaire to run around unmolested looking for a place to hide and lay down) was a classic example of his body-snatching manoeuvre. When he got Donaire stationed against the ropes, he threw a right upper cut that Donaire instinctively raised his arms to defend. And as soon as those arms went up Inoue immediately threw that beautiful left hook to the body and ruptured Donaire's liver. Yes, Donaire also beat the monster up pretty good himself (one of the greatest contests of will and skill I've since the Ali-Frazier days), but after the fight you could see Donaire was sitting slumped over on his chair still in pain. He could barely get up to make it for the decision announcement. That was one of those fights where you felt both great fighters deserved to win.
Another Fearsome Factor is his jab. He doesn't throw just to fluster. He throws it to destroy. There's a reason why Naoya is known to have one of the hardest jabs in the sport aside from fighters like Oscar Valdez, Golovkin or Deontay Wilder.
Great vid, we truly have a golden nugget of a YT coach. Some of the things he says may get overlooked but are priceless, such as not requiring too much power for effective body punching, just correct placement of the punches. And regarding a wider stance to get in and out more effectively and the front foot stance of Inoue which can be utilised for distance deception and setting traps - the whole video in fact. Keep up the great great work and a happy New year to you and your family Fran.
This is a great video breaking down a boxers fighting characteristics and opening the eyes of the viewers to little things we may not notice and also the reasons why the boxer does those things. I would love to see this kind of video continue on with the '5 fearsome factors' of other fighters past an present, whether they be big names or just boxers that do things a bit different to the norm. Informative, educational as well as entertaining.
I like Potatoes Ok Ok 2 years three years picking at words here...I’ve lived in Asia over 20 years and am an ex boxer...I’ve been familiar with him since his start as I follow that the Thai, Pinoy and Japanese scenes more than any other...I just put 2 years for the main stream of boxing conscience. He’s only been P4P in western eyes around two years...until this year he was still left off many experienced people’s P4P lists.
Thanks for the video coach. Inoue has been an inspiration to me and I've been trying to learn and possibly mimick his style. This video helps a lot in just that.
In fairness to Donaire for a 37 year old he gave Inoue one hell of a fight. Would love to see Frampton before he hangs up the gloves fight Inoue, think it would be a great match up. Cheers 👊🙏
Call me crazy but I think he may have a karate foundation. Everything from his stance to his straight punches out of range seems like what my nephew does in karate competitions.
Inoue has thrown i think my favourtie combo ever, it was the combo he used to finish Luis nery, my god! left hook, right uppercut, right straight, the left and uppercut were almost throw aways, and in the process of him scrambling nerys brain with the first 2 punches, he didnt even see the right straight even tho he was right infront of it, the combo is thrown so loose and fluid, the right even has half a second delay, just for perfect timing! the right isnt even thrown hard, just perfect and he crumbles him with pure timing and technique! Beautiful combo to watch!
Fran, I could listen to your analysis all day. As another person commented , it would be good if you could break down other fighter past and present. I look forward to these videos
I liked what you said about manipulating your opponent’s guard in combinations. However, is there a way I can manipulate someone in the Philly shell? When I punch, it’s hard to find openings in their centerlines and flanks mentioned in the video. I have to wait on them to try to counter and use that as my offense. I have to counter their counter. Please, if there’s a way to manipulate their guard as mentioned in the video, tell me.
Hi coach, Ive watched the battle against Nonito Donaire and have a question for you. I saw Naoya a couple of times being caught with a counter right straight when he threw his fearsome elongated left jabs. I think that the elongated jabs is a risk because he could not cover his left chin with a shoulder tilt. Am I correct in this? But I also think that these kind of counters must be fired out almost at the same time as the attacking jab, right? Is this a good recommendation technique against somebody's left jabs? Do we also have to slip the jab by moving our head a little bit to the left when we deliver the counter right straight?
Great videos Fran, Thank you. Joe Louis signature combinations was a right uppercut followed by left hook to knock out a lot of his opponents. Happy New year 👊🙏
Lol u know the answer, he getting his head knocked off for good this time.. I know u see it happening. Fury can only dance so long before he get hit with lightning 💪🏾
Aldo Krasniqi He’s a lighter fighter, and on top there’s no massive household names for him to fight. There’s good fights to be set up but there’s no big competition.
Don't forget factor no. 6: the best timing in boxing. That wasn't as evident in Inoue's last fight, but he was coming up against a seasoned vet who is also a monster at 118. How about a video on Crawford? He's the only one left of the top three and another monster!
Great content! Inoue is really a monster. Cant wait to see inoue vs casimero. I just wish he woulld have a rematch with donaire. LEGENDS!

Fran, you think Naoya Inoue would wreck a heavier bulky dude in a street fight? I'm not talking about a boxer, but let's say a gym rat that is 6'2, 250+ pounds ?
@@Caarnicero why? Usually fighting experts advise a body shot, and advise against a shot the face, becase the hand isn't protected when you hit the bones.
Tourist Q like i said not a street fight , most likely the guy your gonna fight don’t no how to fight and if he start swinging crazy and you start to go to the body your giving him chance to clap your face , but thats from my experience, if its a match thats different
@@Caarnicero it depends if you're a good body puncher ... if not, let it be. The face is always vulnerable... and if the guy has a winter jacket or a thick sweater on, then it's harder to get through anyway.
The real monster is John Reil Casimero, not Inoue...camp of Inoue back out the fight schedule against Casimero and Bub Arum he Knows Casimero destroy his records if the fight schedule it will be happen?
He needs a wide stand to generate those power and if it was a narrower stance he would lose his balance as he swing for the fence. that is why we see baseball players have wide stance to generate them power and not fall after swinging.
I hadn't really paid attention to boxing for a few years and my brother introduced me to Naoya Inoue. That WBSS Final against Nonito Donaire is one of the best fights I have ever seen in a Boxing ring.
My absolute favorite boxer right now
Mine too I love how smart but aggressive he is.
Finally Inoue cold be getting some love.
One of my favourite boxers at the moment, his body shots are things of beauty, to me.
Inoue, Bivol, Loma, & Crawford are the 4 current fighters ive been studying and adopting alot of their techniques and fundamentals
That 4 boxer you talk about .if usualy Maximum Basic boxing skill has 10 level. All of them have basic skill point in 100 😂😂😂. They dont skip any basic boxing class

For some reason I wasn't expecting a video like this from you but I'm really glad you made it!

Great suggestion Marc👍
Gone under most peoples radars for over 2 years...people just getting exposed. Great vid. 👍🏽

Agree, his body work is a joy to behold
A guy that I recently worked with told me about inoue. He is GOOD!!!😎
He is great but what a great detail about his style
Thanks for the video coach. Inoue has been an inspiration to me and I've been trying to learn and possibly mimick his style. This video helps a lot in just that.
He’s such a perfect combination of power speed and technique also prove he has the chin! And man those body shots i love how he sets them up
In fairness to Donaire for a 37 year old he gave Inoue one hell of a fight. Would love to see Frampton before he hangs up the gloves fight Inoue, think it would be a great match up. Cheers 👊🙏
casimero firts legit champ in 118
Gave him a good uppercut that stunned inoue a bit
This man is amazing ! Thank you Fran and happy new year !
Great series on 5 fearsome factors, and an excellent analysis of Naoya Inoue.
Glad you enjoyed it
Call me crazy but I think he may have a karate foundation. Everything from his stance to his straight punches out of range seems like what my nephew does in karate competitions.
Right? I speculate he has martial arts background. His footwork reminds of Bruce Lee type of moves.
Mr. Sands - Thank you for your immensely powerful coaching videos. I have also downloaded your book as well; sincerely appreciated. TK in Boston, MA.
Inoue has thrown i think my favourtie combo ever, it was the combo he used to finish Luis nery, my god!

the right isnt even thrown hard, just perfect and he crumbles him with pure timing and technique!
Beautiful combo to watch!
Bro but what is impressive to me is how you move. I dont know your age but youre quick when u throw those hooks
Fran, I could listen to your analysis all day. As another person commented , it would be good if you could break down other fighter past and present. I look forward to these videos
Yes! What I have been waiting for!!
Thank you Fran for this and for all other videos. You are great coach!
Love your work Fran.
Could you do a video on how he slaps his body shots round the elbows of his opponents by keeping his arms extended and then pulling in?
Happy new year Fran. Another great video. love and appreciation from London.
very good insights solid video coach well done
Thank you
I saw another video about how he uses a modified Karate blitz for boxing
Link the video!
@@Bustedboat1 ua-cam.com/video/2KLnWqMXfa0/v-deo.html
Most Japanese boxers started with karate before going into boxing that's why they know how to control distance and use pinpoint punching.
So many great boxer not only now alone for Naoya Inoue.
Top video Fran-nice one
For me . He the most focus his best for "Basic boxing". That the main key to success plus imposible high speed footwork and wonderful Accuracy.
Great video coach💯
Excellent boxing tutorials thank you!!
I enjoyed your breakdown.
Great breakdown coach. Thanks!
6:17 white thing floats to the left side of the screen. Either dust or you've got a spirit.
😂 Spirit of Christmas Past
SHINIGAMI
1:30〜
I like the breakdown. I would watch out for that wide stance, it takes away speed and distance.
Love these videos 💪
this old dude is deadly...
Fight of the year monster v flash
Inoues technique is impeccable
Decent video hope to see a couple more about different boxers
Great video!👍
Great video
Great video 👍👍👍👍👍
I love his throwup-your-burger left hook
Pound for pound of the hardest hitters boxing has ever seen. Right now Tank and Wilder have the highest KO ratios. Inoue is trailing.
tank and wilder knocking out bums while inoue knock out world champs. Totally different situation
Great vidéo thanks !
thanks coach
Can you do southpaw. It's sad most of the training or breakdown videos in youtube are for orthodox boxers.
GREAT Explaining BRAVA
Will this work for taller/heavier/slower fighters?
Can you do a video on shakur Stevenson

The wide stance is for more power too. Check out Dennis Maccann
Great videos Fran, Thank you. Joe Louis signature combinations was a right uppercut followed by left hook to knock out a lot of his opponents. Happy New year 👊🙏
You can see the simple in the complex...and share it. Thanks!
Hey coach, who wins Fury or Wilder?
Gotta be Fury right?
@@zitoschouten5068 hope so.
Lol u know the answer, he getting his head knocked off for good this time.. I know u see it happening. Fury can only dance so long before he get hit with lightning 💪🏾
No Name wilder with out a doubt beats him the second time around.
@@dio8684 nah, I dont think so, furry took two of his best shots and got up, and won every round except the two he got knocked down in
Hey what other fighters have that long/wide stance?
Caveat for the lead hand statement. Tommy Morrison used it as a punishment for deciding you wanted to box🤣🤣
For me as a beginner trying to get down some fundamentals, would too wide of a stance affect mobility?
Billy McCormick try it for yourself try a three minute heavy bag workout with a wide stance then swap to a less wide stance for another round
Banzai greetings from a fil-brit
Naoya in special. Will never be the face of boxing but will go down as a great considering his KO power and his size
never? because he is japanese?
Never heard of him. How come nobody talks about this guy?
You’re not listening. He’s been on a tear
Aldo Krasniqi He’s a lighter fighter, and on top there’s no massive household names for him to fight. There’s good fights to be set up but there’s no big competition.
Victor Fevrier hope he moves up in weight like pacquiao did.
Aldo Krasniqi He needs to if he wants to make a name for himself.
@@alexmitro4317 i think the most Inoue can move up to is featherweight. He doesn't have Pacquiao's frame to be able to move up any more than that
You should add speed to this list even though I know it's not technically a technique.
the best
Miguel Cotto
Fearsome factors
I notice you are Naoya .
Always watch in x1.75
Don't forget factor no. 6: the best timing in boxing. That wasn't as evident in Inoue's last fight, but he was coming up against a seasoned vet who is also a monster at 118.
How about a video on Crawford? He's the only one left of the top three and another monster!
howd you know it was Christmas time 4 years ago?
Dream match: Naoya Inoue vs. Johnny Tapia. Who wins Coach Sands?
Why no holidays discount?😭
haha. There's one coming!!!
Stance similar is Erik Morales.
なるほどな。
そういう事か。
英語が分からない事に気がつきました。
can inoue beat loma?
Not for my money Dave
Great content! Inoue is really a monster. Cant wait to see inoue vs casimero. I just wish he woulld have a rematch with donaire.

Fran, you think Naoya Inoue would wreck a heavier bulky dude in a street fight? I'm not talking about a boxer, but let's say a gym rat that is 6'2, 250+ pounds ?
Yes , not to brag but plenty of times have messed up dudes bigger than me and im 5’6 150 and Inoue is 130 if im not mistaken imagen that speed
XFlame Shredder i honestly don’t advise a body punch in a street fight
@@Caarnicero why? Usually fighting experts advise a body shot, and advise against a shot the face, becase the hand isn't protected when you hit the bones.
Tourist Q like i said not a street fight , most likely the guy your gonna fight don’t no how to fight and if he start swinging crazy and you start to go to the body your giving him chance to clap your face , but thats from my experience, if its a match thats different

They say Lomachenko is gonna fight Inoue in the near future 👀
I can see that happening cause Loma weight now is to much for him. Dude is fighting bigger and strong opposition.
why doesn't he fight casimero?
Bullshit politics in boxing mixed with covid complications
Hahaha
Casimiro Cuadro Alas lang malakas
Quadro alas says:he is a turtle not monster😂😂😂
monster will lend him that turtle title once meet.
Mdali basahin ni Casimiro style ni Inoue masyado kyong galing na galing kay Inoue e wla akong nkikitang special na style si Inoue basic lang
,
I can't wait 2 turn pro I'm gonna knock Inoue out
Great ! Let us know how that
works out .?
Ah coward creature Casimero is challenging him why he avoided it
The real monster is John Reil Casimero, not Inoue...camp of Inoue back out the fight schedule against Casimero and Bub Arum he Knows Casimero destroy his records if the fight schedule it will be happen?
your wish..good luck with it.
Once Inoue put him to sleep in the ring people will forget him. Just another average boxer with a big loud mouth who craves attention
En realidad naoya tiene deficiencias técnicas notables, pero su forma de golpear lo hace lastimar y noquear😂
Casimero lang malakas
I think there should be at least 7 fear factors. 6 is lightning hand speed, and 7 accurate precise punches.
8 check hook counter. It always seems to catch opponent rushing at him
He needs a wide stand to generate those power and if it was a narrower stance he would lose his balance as he swing for the fence. that is why we see baseball players have wide stance to generate them power and not fall after swinging.
Great video
