Muhammad Ali was another great one who because of his speed and agility was able to "brake the rules" and get away with it. But when that speed was gone with age, he paid dearly for it. Especially against Joe Frazier and Larry Holmes!
Ali in addition to his speed, agility, had a great iq, that was he was able to create his own style without the basic fundamentals, later when he got old, he got used to do some fundamentals and got decent guard but he don't like it to use them all the time, he knew how to do it but he didn't like it.
I love it when I come across a video that validates something I teach and say that is by someone who is more knowledgeable and has more experience than I do.
guilty af when it comes to this, James toney and Roy jones are my guys. I think i mainly fell into this trap when i first started boxing I watched it and did it at home and sparred in a sports hall my friend with 2 years experience and at times did some really cool shit like james toney bending at the waist making him miss loads but barely counterpunched lmao. after being beaten up in an actual boxing gym the past couple years ive put more of a focus on fundamental defence although I am starting to drill philly shell now
Hey Ben! Thanks for sharing. Love it man, nothing like hearing a fighter learn and improve. I do feel any style can be mastered, but we must master the basics first.
rock this this type of content brother. Most channels post beginner stuff that ain’t really useful for intermediate guys like me. your channel really mixes it up with the vids like the mental aspect of the game the sweet science of it. Ion know too much about boxing but Im learnin loads from your vids. appreciate the work man.
Great video as always, Please could you make a video on drills to improve your understanding of range (especially for tall fighters). Ps I am hopefully going to get the book for my birthday
@@BrawlBrosBoxing someone told me to do that with the lead uppercuts. Think not pivoting as much would be for combinations. Yet even a slight pivot would suffice.
@@BrawlBrosBoxing I see what you mean. When you turn the lead left foot after throwing a left hook or upper cut it brings you back to balance. Also faster.

@@jamescare994 Ken Norton was another one of those other guys feared. And he certainly gave Ali a hard time. Absolutely!

Could you make a video about your boxing history;
When did you start,are you an active fighter,what are your strengths and weaknesses etc. etc.
Definitely if there’s interest in it I’d love to.

Yogi Berra would have said; « You can make mistakes but not the wrong ones ». Great video, thanks for your work

For sure! And appreciate the support Sonny!
Thought the lead foot 🦶 pivot was for the hooks and not so much the upper cuts.
Fundamentally you want to pivot on every power punch although the angle varies slightly for each punch.
