Thank you for the video!

That girl? got some hands!

I'm not sure if rubbernecking is something you can do unless you are really good at it without risking getting ktfo?

And maybe that left hook counter as well, since u could get ktfo against a good hard puncher

Boston Salmon apparently boxed at a national level, with Spence or Crawford, I forget which, but he got ktfo trying that left hook counter

More recent major fight from UFC. This guy is Masvidal, people say he's one of the best boxers in MMA

I think it's awesome that a legend like yourself is sharing your wisdom with us Shebros by the way! I did subscribe to your channel as well. Happy New year and hope you have a great year 2022!

Looking from the clips, It would appear that only the mma fighter salmon tried to parry the incoming punch and he completely missed his parry. I suspect the boxing parry is a lot harder to do when one is not wearing the boxing gloves that literally act like huge shields that one can hide behind. The others (including the boxer) did not look like they attempted to parry at all - especially masvidal.

I think Luke and Amir tried to pay the jab and then hook over.

Thanks champ!

BTW @Tim Witherspoon , is a catch the same thing as a parry?

Tim is amazing, man. A true genius of the sport. Definitely my favorite poster on all of Sherdog: reading his posts is like getting free lessons from Beethoven in how to play the piano.

Another good video. I enjoy watching these.

Thank you for the detailed response! Rubbernecking does take talent and can only be learned under pressure testing

I will be watching all these videos.

In reality, I've never worked with a boxing coach but I've learned every trick I know from legends like Tim so I feel I am, in a way, being trained by the best for free. I search out every video I can find and it's amazing what you can learn by internet videos.

I keep my chin behind my right hand so this blocking technique is perfect for me.

Thank you.
