“What about the liver shot” if you feel like commenting this, you need to recognize threat your defense sucks. You can’t cover everything. You need the basic ability to identify what punch is coming and defend against it. There is a such thing as a level feint, but feints are only effective if you are hyperactive to everything. Stay calm, watch the opponent fully, and you’ll realize the whole “if he go high, I go low” mentality won’t work.

"You cant cover everything" just sounds like you don't actually know the technique to block the hook to the body while also protecting the head.

What about the hook to the body

@diosdadoapias 2 жыл бұрын

Sir, maybe that will work because the one punching is using a bulky gloves and you are also using the same kind, so the strike could be obstructed by the gloves. But I think that in bare knuckle hands your blocking hand could be impacted by the bare knuckle fist of the punching hand. It is still best to block/parry and waive the head away from the incoming punch just in case the punch will breached or pass the block or parry the target-head is out of the incoming force.

Couldn't that still damage you if the person is stronger and still give concussion like damage? Just asking

If the person you're fighting can cause severe damage through a blocked punch, you probably shouldn't be fighting that person

@@thenameofthegame4037 Gloves are pretty good. I got a pair of the Blk/Blu 14oz T3's 2 months ago. Just wished they were leather. That said the nylar material feels solid as leather. Just have to see how they hold up over time.

I block punches like this all the time and it's worked well for me. No broken ribs or body knockdowns. 👍 You just have to recognize the difference between blocking head attacks or body attacks. If you're not sure which is coming keep the arm covering both. But I don't prefer to only block that way. You need to switch up your defense depending on your opponent's attacks.
