Footwork in boxing is greatly underrated when it comes to self defense. Being light on your feet and having the option to engage or disengage is very important. In grappling sports, you are forced to commit and that's when things can go very wrong.

As a dude that grew up fighting on the streets and doing time I tell dudes all the time the last place you wanna be is on the ground in a REAL fight. A competition is a real fight but it’s controlled with rules so it makes sense to take someone down. On the street you wanna be on your feet and be able to get away if you need to run not be on the ground waiting to be stomped by other dudes. Seen it too many times. Learn to box it will keep you alive and you’ll win more than 9 out of 10 fights in the streets

Boxing is overrated for street fights on its own. Better to pair with Judo and become a more well rounded fighter.

I have trained BJJ for around 5 years and still do. I took Muay Thai for about a year and 1/2 to get a decent striking base. Most BJJ guys underestimate and undervalue how effective striking is. Grappling is great to know but being able to piece somebody up is equally if not more important.

BJJ is meant to be paired with striking but the strikes were taken out for tournaments. Judo also used to do more ground work but has taken a lot out for tournaments. When it was an actual form of combat for war, you'd use throws and locks to expose people to strikes.

I used to be a boxer and let me tell you it pushes you to the limits unlike anything you've ever seen the desire the pain the hunger the struggle breaking you down building you back up pushing your body to the distance doing things that you never thought was possible before and when it's all said and done you feel so happy because you did something that you thought was impossible that's why I love boxing to this day and still do it❤❤

I have been training karate for nearly 25 years. And now I do boxing 1 to 2 times a week besides karate. Boxing for me is another game that really gives you the taste of reality and you don't get that in lots of martial arts. It's great for footwork, conditioning and reflexes.

Man I am martial arts instructor. Iv been training in one way or another for close to 20 years. I honestly tell people the same thing. I think boxing and wrestling are the best things people can do if they want to actually be able to handle themselves in a fight simply because of the way they train and the mindsets of the competitions. I incorporate both in our fighting system quite a bit simply because of how effective they are in the street. And most of the street fights I've been in it's been a pretty awful idea to be on the ground for to long lol

@@tylerdurden4289 i think so too. i personally am a muay thai striker but i also use some karate grappling techniques in a fight like the upward block into hammer fist, or doing a step with my right leg and doing a vertical straight punch with my left then move back to muay thai punches if someone uses a long guard or frames my punches. i also like to use a snappy karate front kick to their legs when they try to be evasive and counter with punches but i add the hip thrust to it so its a hybrid between the muay thai teep and karate front kick.

I agree with everything said. I'm from Kazakhstan and have been doing boxing since school. Later I transitioned into judo and bjj. In real life scenario boxing helped me in self-defence on multiple occasions. In my experience all the fights started in places where I less likely expected it, i.e at home, in a bar, pub, restaurant, shopping mall, on the way to home or work etc. To avoid a series of punches and to stay conscious even if some good punches landed on my head or body is a key ability that boxing gave me. Once the back of my head hit the edge of the toilet unit, but still I was able to get up though I felt the wave of shock went through all my body (a similar experience when you've been knocked out).

Yes, because if you're attacked especially if you are taken by surprise you might have to weather the storm and take a couple punches. Another good thing about training in boxing is you learn to roll with punches or cover up so you aren't taking the full force of the hits. The harder you are hit the more difficult it is to defend yourself. Take the least amount of damage and the sooner you can recover and fight back.

Man coach V I’m so glad you made a video on this topic. I always tell people, if two 225 guys on steroids roll in submission grappling, It’s still not necessarily a FIGHT.

Amazing perspective coach, I've never heard anyone articulate this topic quite so. You are a real blessing to listen too, keep up the momentum!

I have nothing but respect for boxers. It's amazing, plain and simple. I chose Muay Thai primarily because I wanted access to more weapons lol As a Muay Mat, I prioritize punches over kicks, knees, and elbows, but it's nice to know I have those options, and I still train them. That said, boxing footwork and head movement is second to none.

I’ve been a grappler all my life. Things are changing. Men don’t fight one on one anymore, buddies jump in and jump on your head. Everyone’s got knives or worse. I decided, no more rolling around on the ground in parking lots. Never had much respect or interest in boxing. “Can’t punch off you back” and all that. Had no clue how technical and beautiful it is. It really is the sweet science. At 53 and after a life time grappling. I’m training boxing multiple times a day. All my weight training it for boxing now too. Lots of running and rope. My body’s changing into something it’s never been. My cardio is leaps and bounds above where it was. I don’t look so stocky anymore. For the fire time, I have complete confidence in my punching power in either hand any with any punch. And the leg work constantly blows my mind. Boxings not just punching people. That’s kind of the least interesting part of it. I’m glad, I wised up. I still love to grapple, but on a mat with training partners. Not in the street. There’s always something new and to improve. I’ll never be great, but I’ll always be better than I was yesterday. Love the video. 🫡

You made some very valid points and I agree with everything you said.

The footwork, head movement, and overall body mechanics of boxing are so fundamental not just to a fist fight, but translate incomparably better than any other martial art's skillset. The future addition of any other means of striking (kicks, knees, open hand, etc.) are included very easily due to boxing's movement mechanics alone. The addition of BJJ or Judo basics adds such a strong layer of overall competency in a fight.

This guy is brilliant. I will listen to him all day.

I do Muay Thai, Judo, and Boxing. Boxing just helps everything. I also done Wrestling because the current Judo rules are pretty bad

Boxing is great for the street knocking people out and you are also used of getting hit to the head. But you forget that you can break your hands to because no hand wraps and big gloves to protect them . But Boxing is above BJJ because fighting on the ground can be dangerous, when there are more opponent. I think Judo is equally to boxing because every fight can get close so with Judo you can trow your opponents with a brutal force to the ground ! 🥊🥋💚

Not OP but self defence is maximised when your techniques become second nature. Hitting bags isn't as good as you don't get punished for mistakes but you do get to practice your techniques on a very solid target! Sparring against someone is half of it, the technique is the other half.

About time someone said it out loud

just wanna say all your videos have excellent advice. dont stop posting. maybe do some videos on defensive basics, stance work...fundamentals that many people miss. i mean theres already videos on that and i like your more 'inner'/psychology type of vids. but yea...

Just notice you didn’t touch up alot about the subject “JUDO” In judo there’s also alot of movement..fight for grips, drag opponent, offbalancing opponent, use their attack against them.. Judo moves also are mostly defences..(managing distance) to throw, sweep, takedowns..and many times the judoka could also be left standing instead..which gives him/her time to add more damage to the opponent or simply look to exit the scene. With that said there’s also alot of footwork in JUDO as well..

But it is EXTREMELY difficult to execute techniques on someone running away. If your opponent isn't willing staying in the clinch with you it is hard to get your hips under their center of gravity or to apply sweeps. I like wrestling because you can force your will by shooting, whereas in judo a lot of its success is timing based. I have also experienced firsthand that especially when there's no gi, you can have your back taken on many throws

I agree with you 100%.

A street fight is similar to a gunfight in that it's usually the first hit on target that wins. That's where a trained boxer has the advantage over other martial arts re; hand speed, movement and distance management.

Tristar gym has a bjj/muay thai split system. It is ran by Firas Zahabi. What do you think about that?

I'm a blue belt in bjj and soon to be purple and haven't boxed in many years, but am so happy I learned how to box when I did. It is very effective and straightforward for self defense and the workout itself helps my stamina when I roll in bjj. Boxing has holes just like every fighting style, but that's when it's best to combine boxing with bjj to defend yourself on the ground and learn some muay thai for the awareness of being able to defend against kicks and elbows. Whatever the self defense or competitive goals are for striking, grappling or cage fighting, boxing is a great universal workout that everyone should have in their training routine.

I totally agree with this. I've seen footage of boxers very easily and effectively take control of a situation taking out multiple opponents. Boxing and it's footwork just works, it's that simple. There's nothing fancy about it.

Coming from a Shotokan background, you are %100 correct. Boxing/Muay Thai, is on a different level. Most street fights, don't go to the ground. If they do, you're in trouble( you don't want to be on the ground, in a street fight).....my opinion.....

I have seen kickboxers/ MUAY THAI and MMA guys that don't know that you have to exhale when you are checking a strike. No footwork, no head movement, no head covering, no 1-2, no counter attack. Basic things.

I view boxing as a classic in a good way too 😅

that also might come from the fact that boxing hyper focuses on one aspect. having only one focus rather than trying to do everything all at once will lead to being significantly better at that one thing. having that hands-only focus will also lead to being able to base your footwork all around that. feel free to correct me if i’m wrong :)

Men who know how to use their fists effectively / efficiently will always give an opponent hell. There is a bias towards wrestlers and grapplers in todays fighting world.. but what they fail to understand.. is that if you are not growing up in gym where getting punched in the face and defending yourself against someone who knows how to throws their fists, you will be in for a surprise when you meet that opponent. All those wrestlers can wear those cute little onesie suits with the earmuffs all they want, on a regulated mat... when you get punched in your face by a boxer who knows how to utilize that power.. they will feel a shock throughout their body that they never felt before in their life.. they will question everything they thought they knew about fighting.

Knowing some sort of self defence is all about trade-offs. I'm a complete amateur when it comes to this, but I like the simplicity of boxing, which has both a beauty and effectiveness to it. You can teach yourself the very basics by practising four types of punches and regularly shadowbox. It won't make you either a proper boxer or a self-defence expert, but it will at least give you something to work with, a certain amount of very basic self-confidence which is better than nothing. Most ordinary people don't have the time or will to put down hours of training in a gym, so this is one way of still acquiring some sort of extremely elementary self-defence capability. Having to learn only four ways of punching combined with some kind of footwork and evasive movement at least gives you a better chance than someone with no practice whatsoever.

I love boxing 🥊🥊 plus I did very hard work

Well question,Lets see a video on how boxing can handle an attack with weapons on the street as real street fights often have attackers who use weapons and boxing appears not to train in any weapons nor weapon disarms and that is a big hesitation for me on wanting to box even though Bruce Lee thought highly of boxiinng ? If no video can you answer the question ?

A highly trained boxer can be scary person to get in a street fight with and plus everyone will fear and respect a man that can knock out people out

My plan is to do boxing at least 2 years then would like to do judo

Very solid points. (Coming from a karate blackbelt)

btw, could one argue boxing is in some situation, more effective than kickboxing or muay thai in the street? because in the street ppl usually wearin jeans or slim pants, which makes it significantly more difficult to kick...just a thought!

being battle tested can't be overstated. early in life I learned Karate and got my black belt in 2 years. Later on, i trained in boxing. I feel I learned more about actual fighting in 1 month boxing than I did in Karate, mainly because every day you're spending time in the ring and actually testing what you learned. Karate sparring is different, blows to head are not allowed, and they teach you mainly to just protect your torso and back from getting hit (tournament fighting). Of course that doesn't prepare you against an opponent who is coming at you trying to take your head off. Granted, what I learned in Karate wasn't useless, I learned to incorporate those into my game, but definitely boxing was more useful overall. Things you learn in Karate a lot of times were for show, but everything learned in boxing is practical. And of course once again, the sparring and actual pressure testing is crucial to know what will actually work and what won't.

There is a difference between fighting and criminal violence. Fighting is somewhat mutual to a degree, for example, two guys in a bar exchange words then step outside for a brawl. Criminal violence is sudden with little warning, for example, a group of teens playing the knockout game & sneaking up on a victim. Criminal violence often involves two or more attackers, an armed attacker or both. The best defense against criminal violence is an equalizer such as a pistol or pepper spray & of course general awareness of your surroundings. Unarmed against criminal violence I would definitely take boxing & wrestling before all other styles, what you need when SHFT is simplicity. However keep in mind unarmed no matter what style you are very much behind the power curve when facing criminal violence.

the JRE channel brings it up often

I have a question. Do you have to be competitive to be good at boxing? Or to reap the benefits of self defence and conditioning?

I tell people all the time it’s the best work out in the world and of course you will learn how to defend yourself, taking it to the competitive level is a much higher commitment. Learn the basics do the work out and take it from there! Coachvboxing.com

You don’t have to compete to be nice in boxing, learning how to box is learning how box, once you learn how to box you’ll never forget it it’s quality over quantity, I know a few folks who boxed since kids all the way up to their teens never had pro fights, but they was just so nice with it putting professional boxers that just retired to sleep in sparing, aslongs you learn how to box weather it’s in the gym or KZread or whatever you can and you can learn from it you’re good some people train for like 3 to 5 months and due to their genetics and lifestyle trauma etc… it’s like they’ve been boxing for years, so yeah learning how to strike and defending yourself is golden whether you’re competing or not.

If you don't plan on competing, SPAR. Most people don't know how to look at another man who is trying to hurt you let alone take a punch. Spar with experienced boxers, also one class higher and one weight class lower than you, listen to your coach and get used to getting hit while also getting used to delivering combos to your opponent, you'll learn how helpless it feels to gas out and learn how to conserve your energy

Everything you said it’s great coach .but I have seen different types of fighters in the French legion but guys who know boxing and hace some basic of kicking I seen then do better than most .

Im unexperienced but I agree. I don't even want to be able to fight necessarily. I just want to know I can take punches or kicks and not crumble...I feel like all other martial arts with their ability to tap out removes this element of pain and fear of the unexpected that striking arts have. Also it seems that wrestling seems like the most realistic grappling style. It's the closest things to two apes just dueling. Start off standing up and go from there. BJJ with the gi and everything seems to be too technical at first for simple self defense purposes. I want to learn the basics of strking and grappling, not learn about how to grip a lapel and all that.

Ever heard of a suit or jacket? I primary train no gi, but when I put on a gi there are soooooo many ways you can control or be controlled. This will translate to suits jackets and jeans.

Honestly in my opinion I prefer judo over bjj, they still grappling on the floor like bjj but there takedowns are quicker and u can do it multiple times while running away

I agree and have always known this. Boxing is very good as a foundational system. Especially the sparring. Boxing teaches effective use of head movement, footwork, develops your speed and power, you learn to take hits and keep on fighting, etc. I actually started in martial arts and my very first class was Aikido but at the same time I was boxing too. Lots of sparring in my teen years and my 20's. Throughout the years I trained in many different systems, everything from Karate to BJJ. However as good as boxing is I don't believe it is the best. It can develop a person into a fighter in the shortest time possible, that is one of it's strengths. It doesn't take very long to see results and majority of martial arts especially the traditional systems progress is very slow and it could take years before you are truly effective and gain significant results from your training. One of the drawbacks to martial arts. To really get good it takes a long time. The advantage however is you can hold your own and it makes you effective against a bigger larger attacker. The techniques are designed to cripple and take the body apart, it will also prepare you for situations where you are forced to end someone's life. Boxing doesn't. Throwing hooks, jabs, uppercuts and cross punches can only take you so far. Other than the liver and the chin boxing doesn't go for the most vulnerable areas. Punching a much larger stronger attacker in his head and face or his body might not be enough, even if you have a speed advantage. Also you have to condition your knuckles because if you punch someone in the head without gloves or wraps around your hand you could break your hand. Martial arts teaches this plus you learn to use different parts of your hand as well as your elbows, forearms, your head, your feet, etc. Even your fingers which are particularly good for attacking the eyes. Boxing doesn't teach any pressure points. Martial artists especially in the more advanced Chinese martial arts gets deep into that area of study. Also boxing has no defense against certain martial art techniques such as leg kicks and what is known as trapping and limb destruction which is commonly taught in Filipino martial arts as well as Wing Chun/Jeet Kune Do. Silat ( Indonesian martial art ) also has this as well as many types of sweeps and attacking from the ground, very unorthodox and unpredictable ways of fighting.

I do karate and boxing is my second love this video

Damn right!!!

As a martial artists myself and ive boxed. Boxing is very efficient and effective to real world practical. I also believe traditional karate, judo , muay thai , bjj it depends on how you take the art and who youre learning from. Boxing does enhance your skills as a martial artist. Judo wrestling boxing does work in the street bjj helps you not panic if you were on the floor karate and muay thai is effective is you use old school methods like low kicks knees and elbows.

What it added in my boxing fighting style against a boxer, is kick there knees or traps there hands. And yes is 70% of fighter do end at the ground. Unless you got good foot work and some good counter. If not That's way everyone should learn some kind of ground fighting.

Be able to strike, grapple, throw pin. Takes lots of years of reps and sparring various body types. Ages strength levels etc have fun.

it's actually weak to put your own sport above others. Boxing is a strenuous and effective sport. But boxing is also much easier to learn than many other material arts. Which martial artist wins in a fight is always an individual thing. In my opinion, a boxer is usually behind.

Thanks for your input but I think you completely missed the part where I said I have participated in just about all the top major martial arts way before I got involved with boxing. The point of the video is boxing is simpler and easier to advance and then most of these overcomplicated martial arts systems that hold you back so they can keep beating you in the head for belt fees and monthly dues!!

I love boxing with boxing is a fundamental add kicks dutch kickboxing

Just wanted to add boxing is in fact a martial art as well. It’s the art of mastering your hands to the most efficient way possible and balance and position. But yes all major combat arts are great for anyone to learn and offer something more valuable when transitioning once you get comfortable switching arts you can take some things and have an advantage once you pick up something else

Boxing is not a martial art by definition martial arts are Asian fighting systems that are structured with belt systems boxing is the total opposite. I hate when karate people try to act like they know everything about boxing. Who's been training for 30 years and got forty stripes on their belt and never even been punched in the face for real

@@WortonChavelle-kp9dy well the origination of the phrase comes from there but martial art just is a simple way of saying the art of combat either seen as a sport or for war or self defense. And yes I agree with you on some martial arts not having the experience. The advantage a lot of sport martial arts have is they have experience cause they are always fighting each other so just like anything in life you are going to get really good at it if you keep putting it to the test all the time. From my experience the difference about boxing from traditional stuff is lots of gym skip the mental practices and humility you need to develop you as a person and they just get straight to the training for boxing. If you want the spiritual side of martial arts you need the right coach or similar people that care about it

Boxing is great... take a wrong step forward and a muay thai guy can takr out your leg. Get taken to the ground and you are in a bjj guys world. Solution.... train in striking and grappling.

I been tryna tell ppl,boxing is just perfect.every martial art needs to incorporate boxing within them,but the problem is alot of martial artist WANT to stick to tradition and not evolve,martial arts was never about sticking to tradition but rather understanding the fact that if times change,ppl will change,there mind,there actions,ppl get smarter through time,so u gotta switch it up,even the way u train.the way ppl fought back in the 1800s ain’t the same as today,this is why a lot of karate guys get beat up….spending countless time on kata,the application,3 step,when they could be doing Cardio,strength training,footwork,conditioning (not only physically to take a blow but the mind and spirit as well),drills and technique training,it’s all about learning to improve your martial art while sticking to its principles.I started off as tkd,did American karate for 3 years.my Sensi knew alot of boxing,karate may be 50%grappling and 50% striking but once I started adding in a lil bit of Mike Tyson’s left hook and boxing in changed my game COMPLETELY.it may not be complete,but still there’s a reason why boxing is karate’s rival,they tough,conditioned n hard to hit…ppl needa put sum respect on it fr,it teaches every martial art how martial artist should train if they truly want to be effective in combat along with Kickboxing and Muay Thai,having a pretty belt is one thing.but the knowledge within your head and your skill level is another

Again one punch can kill a person choking somebody can to but not as fast that’s why I prefer boxing

I think your opinion is MOST applicable if you exclude the sport boxing rules and include the full conditioning repetoire that professional boxers utilize for sanctioned bouts. That type of training would most likely compare and compete against combat oriented martial arts. Make sure to include EVERY technique, such as trapping, slipping, clinching that may be more commonly found in Muay Thai Boxing.

I agree

With respect; the first few UFCs disprove what your saying pretty convincingly. People had to start learning Jiu Jitsu/Grappling before they could beat the Jiu Jitsu guy. Now if you want to come up wit some scenario where you’re fighting five guys on a bed of glass then maybe boxing might be better, maybe. But I could just as easily say what if the fight is in a tiny room that doesn’t allow the boxer to use his footwork before the grappler gets his hands on him. One on one/No holds barred the pure Jiu Jitsu guy beats the boxing guy 9 out of 10 times. Once the boxing guy learns how to defend against Jiu Jitsu then I would go with the boxer.

Any form of martial arts & self defense is good & its good. I box & from what ive seen i love striking more then grappling or wrestling/bjj. You always start on your feet & most likely never wanna be on the ground in the real world for a street feet. I have & seen other boxers piece up bad mma & bjj guys

I AGREE

Yeah I agree I have done boxing Tang Soo Do Jeet Kune Do and Seido Karate and rate boxing No 1

Boxer like to stand fighting, fighting is 90 ground work wher I find boxer don’t like going to ground have had a lot of fights with boxer black eyes broken nose but the Boxer was afraid of me I may have had over a 100 street fight’s thumbs bite through eyes gouged but my Judo has worked well against a boxer

Do you have any advice for how a boxer could adapt to kicks / wrestling / clinching / knees / elbows in a freeform type of setting like self defense or mixed ruleset? I do totally agree with the sensibility of boxing and I love it because of how streamlined it is but just wondering what would be a good strategy for nullifying other styles or tactics. Ive never trained muay thai or wrestling but I train boxing now and did traditional mantis kung fu which uses a lot of parrying, hand traps, some clinchwork, some trips and throws, some joint locking. Im always trying to round out my game and would love to get your thoughts.

Try to either aikido or Muay Thai. Muay Thai is pretty heavy in kicks so naturally you’ll learn how to avoid and predict them coming. Also the clinches you’re taught will give you a good counter to a lot of those kicks. Hope this makes sense and this helps you out 👍🏾

You can easily use boxing in a such situation. The issue is being aware of enemy's weapons. People like Nate Diaz, Illya Topuira or Borys Mańkowski are good example of boxing based MMA fighters.

For self defense i only ever used boxing, and if i couldn't escape grappling i used wrestling, i used to do wrestling in high school, but boxing ever since i was 6 until 18, i sid train some muay thai and bjj in mma, But I always found boxing better for me, and wrestling.
