ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- This past weekend's Edwards vs Muhmmad fight card we saw a couple of spectacular straight right hand finishes. The overhand right has many highlight real KO's to it's name as well. But which version of the right hand should you throw? How do you throw a straight right and an overhand right? When do you throw them? Stay tuned as my bro Sweet T and I answer those questions for you!

Your due bro. EVERYONE else in the top 5 has gotten to fight up in they're last two fight EXCEPT you, and they tried to feed ya to the young wolves twice & you took both them dudes to kickboxing school!!! Usman has beat up everyone else in the top 5, it's your shot bro. Your the only one taking on up-n-comers. Just give my boy the shot. Keep up the good content WB, we all appreciate it.
Hear hear
i really love WB, but you dont get a title shot just after a loss. I think WB has to grind a bit, but I belive he can make it!
Most humble guy! Got me into mma, been boxing for about a year and half and training jiu Jitsu as well
Damnit 9 seconds before my comment, so close!
White belt .
@@stormbreakerb1253 nothing wrong with that bro. Most people don’t even start or just give up
@@stormbreakerb1253 is white belt the baddest?
@@thanod99 white belt is beginner but everyone has to start there
had to pause the vidoeo and just note that I freaking love Technique Tuesdays!
Imagine how many views Stephen would get if he titled all of his vids "UFC fighter teaches..." 😂
Seriously, why he doesn't do that?
@@marioss2167 they're new to TH-cam and like he's said he's a karate teacher first, fighter second. I'd be surprised if TH-camr made third on the list haha.
OUR BOY SO GOOD, HE DONT NEED BAIT TO CATCH FISH
He should
No this is a secret 😂
Wonderboy should fight Leon and winner should get title opportunity against winner of Jorge vs Usman
So the winner should fight Usman
I seriously cant believe they gave the title shot to Masvidal
Dana whites being a bozo n won’t let it smh 🤦🏽♂️ potato headed fool
yeah i think theyre gonna run the belal rematch tho
2:04 nice dance moves WB!
You got me into MMA Wonderboy! I am in middle school and wrestle, now I also do karate, Taekwondo, and kickboxing
You can drop the tk, take up some bjj or judo
@@79zoey i know what to Keep and drop my dad has been doing martial arts since he was a kid. I will keep doing everything I am doing.
@@yeetfeet1878 he ain't wrong bro you can drop the tk you gotta get some judo or jui jistu brather
@@benandrews6616 again I say I know what I am doing with my martial arts training and I will keep using it. ITF Taekwondo is a very useful martial art.
@@yeetfeet1878 ya, keep the taekwondo and throw in jiujitsu too
WB & SWEET T dropping knowledge and teaching us their ways is the best way to get ur Tuesdays started no doubt about it! Today's takeaway-ur 2 big knuckles can take more of a pounding than your pinky😜# letsgooo #wonderboybewhereitsat #wonderboyfan4eva #wonderboythebestthebaddest #respectandrecognize #canwecloneyouyet
I have been boxing my whole life and just started getting into kickboxing and this guy is my fav.
2 razor thin championship losses, a 50/50 loss against Till and a freak KO from Pettis. He’s still the most ducked fighter at 170.
The pettis superman punch was so out of the blue. I felt for wonderboy that day.
It’s so impressive Stephen is so nice and still has the powers to knock dudes out
Forgot it was Tuesday, more good advice also keeping me plugged into reality
So that "palm outward" hook (also known as the Russian casting punch, or in traditional karate, _furi uchi)_ is definitely unconventional, but it was also Fedor's specialty and helped him win a lot of fights. At least in Goju-Ryu karate, you're supposed to flick your wrist as you whip your arm, bending your big knuckles towards your opponent's head and going rigid upon impact. It's a very snappy and surprisingly stiff blow when delivered correctly. At mid range, it can loop around your opponent's guard slightly better than a conventional hook, and unlike conventional hooks, it can still be used at long range as you can throw and land it with a straightened arm. However, at close range in traditional karate applications, it's meant to be a rabbit punch aimed at the back of your opponents head, which is obviously a no-no for MMA.
So what Fedor used to do was use it as a sort of "option select" (fighting game nerds know what I'm talking about). At distance, he used it exactly as I described: a long-ranged hook that could do big damage and sneak around defenses. At close range, however, he used it to collapse into a clinch, as his hand would already be in position for an S-grip, so he could deftly glide into a very solid over-under body lock and let his godlike Sambo do the rest. Also, the way it's thrown naturally causes your arm and shoulder to rise up to protect your chin, and allow you smoothly slip to the side if you whiff. So it was a punch that could do multiple jobs and adapt regardless of the range it was in, which was vintage Fedor, one of the most versatile fighters of all time.
Disclaimer: I am not saying that Fedor was a karateka, nor am I saying that the casting punch and _furi uchi_ are the exact same strike. I'm just saying that they're very similar and thus can have similar applications.
I leaned it as a modified ridge hand and hit with the "Hammer" (thumb /forefinger or even the wrist bone) or "the Long Hook" , yes like a whip, or like a ridge hand OSS / OSU / OOOSSSS
British bareknuckle fighters also use it.
@@daniel-zh9nj6yn6y yeah, I can imagine that, since it delivers with the big knuckles, and the wrist angle likely prevents hand and arm fractures. As long as they don't land with the back of the hand, that is.
Thanks for explaining
One of the best embassadors of the sport, much respect to WB.
How do you feel about the Jorge Usman 2 bs.
Crap, same result
They're just making it for money and that's it
Money rules. Dana knows how to spin all this.
@@parkourmaster4526 They aren't going to get to the last ppv numbers in this rematch
Sweet T and his brother! Here we go!👊 Leon v WB next!!!🤞✌🏼🏴
Edit - can't unsee Tony looks like Bisping lol
Just been wondering when your next fight is going to be. And who do you think it’s going to be. I know you broke your hands so you been healing up. Just can’t wait to see you fight again. Like I said before you are my favorite fighter. Your karate style in mma is awesome.a few others have karate background but your style of fighting is so effective and the striking is off the chain. Just wanted to say thank you for putting on a battle every time you fight. You deserve to be in top 5 and a title shot. How badass would that be.wonderboy with the belt. Can’t wait. Tennessee loves you bro.
We train the straight right exactly as you demonstrated. Like listening to my Sensei. So much stronger that way
Can you do a video on blocking punches and defensive techniques?
This is your prime motto of your channel
Technique Tuesday
I missed a lot
Podcast is AOK
BUT these videos are lit🔥🔥
I don't mean that your podcast is okay
Your podcast is informative
But we have to watch the whole to get that info in between.
I don't have enough time these.
And yeah
Keep preparing
You are one win away from title shot.
Usman vs Masvidal.
Whether it's
Edwards or Covington
Just get the deal done.
By the way
You can appoint me as your
Heel face
I can talk a lot of thrash
Whether it's
Leon poke Edwass
Or
Colby polyvinbag Covington
Thanks for this information Wonderboy.
I didn't practice Overhand that much because it seems sloppy. However, it work for other fighters, especially wrestlers. So this vid really helps 👍
I turn my overhand right over so I hit with the bottom three, like a Russian hook. I do jkd/mma so I do similar to Jack Dempsey's bottom 3 knuckle punching
Damn. Interesting stuff.
Cool stuff. Do you throw your hooks this way also?
Interesting..used to do wing chun,so i couldn't get rid of this habit..so i simply adapted my hooks to land with the bottom 3 knuckles..seems to work ok..and it helps that they are already somewhat conditioned..
Great video WB & Sweet Tea never can have enough of the basics knowing when to throw a punch is harder then some might think. "It's chess not checkers" -Denzell Washington
i just wanna you gott an amazing father and a life. Your father once shout out loud on your Woodley fight in which he said "you gott nothing to lose, this is what you love so enjoy the fight" something like that and that really melted my heart you gott an amazing life you're living a dream of many so make full of it brother ✨👌 such a wonderful man you're
Nicest guy in the arts, period. Sweet Tea is a Beast. Saw his black belt test.
thanks for breaking down these punches. I have to watch all your fights in slowmo just to see how u dropped some guys. love this channel and the new pod.
It would be awesome if they did a video on ring craft. There are a quite a few people who are good at it but Wonderboy’s is probably the best in the UFC.
Big boy is a good teacher…he paints a visual with his words!
Been subscribed since day 1, I love technique Tuesdays!
Dude I love this channel man you're doing great work for real bro
I like to throw the overhand rights with my palm in like Stephen. Not only is your wrist in a stronger position but your bicep is more engaged as well, which makes the punch more powerful.
Thanks wonderboy & iced tee. Appreciate your fight lesson
love that "what's up everybody" in the end XD You both are amazing together :) Always fun to watch you guys
Thanks for the clarity Wonderboy
Limp arm shadow boxing, try it. It'll feel and look goofy, but it can help some in learning to connect body and shoulders into arms. Also not winding up, be explosive to have no tell.
Smashing the technical knowledge 👌 😎
Soon be back wonderboy! 🥊✌
The Looping Overhand on the ear was how JDS caught Cain. It didn't look like it hit flush, because his forearm had actually got partially caught in the shoulder. But it was still enough to set up the finish on the ground.
Thank you for the help you've provided in my MMA growth my dude.
Genuinely appreciate theses videos.
Can we please get a breakdown on how to defend the takedown when you're up against the cage/wall
Not as flashy as crazy kicks but Wonderboy seems to have it down to a T and I just cannot figure it out😂
Wonderboy uses underhooks to lift them back up then circle off... WB is a master at it
@@bermonz thanks, are there any little tricks to getting good underhooks and how to circle out that you know or could link me to?
Connor Sherrington I dunno tbh, just watch some videos of wonderboy, israel or darren tills takedown defence they all do it perfectly
Connor Sherrington forget what I just said check out sensei seths video takedown defence with wonderboy

12:45 experince in sparring
You're an absolute legit character man, you can do anything on TH-cam plus you got UFC credentials to back up your content.
Always good content
Chuck Liddel had one of the best overhand punches Ive ever seen. Like the WB kick's are often imitated but never as good. I honestly believe if you can keep Usman at distance you can take his strap . Hopefully Dana gives you the shot , it seems guy's are scared of you as a match up.
Dan Henderson also
@@pstratos7 yes but known for the H 💣 Chuck tee'd up that overhand it was curtain's but yes indeed
Hey Wonderboy... have you done any segments on karate for self-defense? Or speak to any event where you have had to use karate in self-defense.
Interesting. I was taught to step into it and it always seemed to have more effect than when leaving the back foot planted but this is backyard boxing not even amateur fighting
I'll have to try this out
i like make subtle gestures to touch each other and stand really close to each other .
lets hope the ufc get this good man a fight soon
Sweet T with the "rocked" stumble from wb punches. Funny dude.
Just found this TH-cam channel. Subscribed!
Excellent video
Can't believe they gave Jorge another shot just like that. Idk what your status is, but did they even hit you up about fighting in April??? Anyways, just keep at it WB, keep putting down them young dudes & they gotta give you a chance eventually.
Overhand right is my best punch so far after 3 months of training. Jus started sparing and it’s the only punch I can hit consistently
Dude I sincerely hope you get a title fight soon , I would also love to see you go up and dethrone izzy amazing style match up
Great information WB thank you!
Yesss, Stephen at it again with great advice!
Funny story: before I got into the UFC, I’d always get told by strangers and friends that I look like Wonderboy. A couple years later I started watching and realized they were talking about Stephen. Now he’s my favorite fighter!
Thank you for the lesson!
Yes! Thank you Sensei!
Excellent
Thank you bro
you can also hit with the "hammer" (or the wrist bone) on the overhand or some call it the Long Hook
Igor Vovchanchyn used that strike before MMA started using gloves, and also used it while wearing gloves.
You guys should get a new wide angle lens. I love your instructional and break down videos. They are so good! Also i know this is a unpopular opinion of your fan base but i would love to see a new intro. I think there are so many options to switch it up and not only have the "what's up everybody" as your only calling card to your youtube channel.
I constantly practice the 1 2 side step 2
Could u guys go over the Celtic cross?
You could also use the overhand like khabib did in the 2nd round of his fight with mcgregor…he feinted the takedown(mcgregor was ready for the takedown) and didn’t expect the overhand right after…..good punch for wrestlers to learn….Michael chandler used it as well vs Dan hooker I believe which got him the w
Can you try hitting with the 2 middle knuckles ? Try to aim with the ring and the big knuckle when a heavy bag bare knuckle, see if the structure is solid on the impact, personally I find it to be solid with straight punches
I like to throw my overhand right after conditioning someone to expect one twos to the mid - usually I pull a jab feint, then one overhand that probably lands chest and a second with a step in that hits the chin. I wanna get good enough to get my timing more awkward, I feel like I can only reliably do so in beats rn
Wonderboy's partner or coworker or whatever seems like a cool guy!
Epic thumbnail lol
I don't train in MMA, but watch the UFC all the time. You are my favorite fighter and I can't get over how funny y'all are. Cracking me up. And when that intro hits....I do a little dance 🤣
Video of you doing a little dance on the intro please
I'm still hoping for that Maia fight. Would be the ultimate legacy gight for both of those senseis.
Great info love the content! Can we get you boys in white tshirts? We would be able to see you much better against the black background :D!
Cant you get more power on the straight right with a slight sequential lag starting from the back foot pivot torquing through the hips and through the shoulders? But maybe that would telegraph the attack too much..
Sup Champ hope you are doing well
After your footwork tutorial and stance I find it a little difficult to throw Rear hook and uppercut can you guide or make the video please :)
Ps One of the earliest here
i had the same problem so i bounce forward/sideways after landing kicks or staigth punches into a peecaboo style boxing stance to land hooks or uppercuts. Sorry ik the comment wasnt meant for me but i hope its helped
@@geromeescurin1247 thank you brother much appreciated I would give it a try and update you within 24 hours
@@qasim1590 good luck and the way i train it was with a double end bag so i would not be hesitant to close the distance also i drilled a lot of head movement to complement the karate distance managment style cos im only 5,7 and a takedown tends to be the gameplan so i use wide stance to find the oportunity then narrow to box, clinch and takedown/throw.
@@geromeescurin1247 thanks it worked in last sparring session although I didn't had success at first few rounds but later I was able to land them clean
@@qasim1590 the way i set it up is frustrating my sparring partner by hitting him with sidekicks teeps jabs and sometimes 1 2 if he decides to come to me he ll usually jab so i bounce to my rigth and forward (from orthodox stance) squaring my stance sligthly and sliping my head rigth and then rotating to deliver the hook
I get a kick watching you two. I wish my boys got along as well as you guys seem to. I have a 16 yr old (6’5” 220 lbs) and a 12 yr old ( 5’ 9” 140 lbs). It’s not a fair fight ......... yet.
Wouldn't fight either one of you.. For that matter would have to heavily contemplate sparring Sweet T 🤣 keep it up, the vids are awesome!!
Can I just say what a great role model you are. I wish you were my dad... I'm 29 btw 😂
Gene fuller had a great overhand he threw it like a baseball pitcher and used it to cover distance.
Stephen! Hey man, I just saw your interview with Submission Radio and you said you hadn’t heard anything from the UFC or anyone else about fights. I know everyone likes you because you’re the NMF lol, but man you really need to to call someone out and talk some trash. The UFC knows that what really sells fights is the story. I don’t think this is selling out. It’s just part of the game. Come on man, throw some serious shade at Colby and let’s make this fight happen! lol
WB, what did you think of the latest Nganou knockout with an overhand right (haymaker)?
Even though I know you make videos with Sweet T, I still occasionally see a thumbnail and think your training with Mike Bisping
Wonderboy me big fan
Jab techniques video pls sir
Overhand rights are good for bar fights. You might as well send a picture of it if you're fighting against a trained fighter.
Dang that was a good one
2B Right Straight Feint
Just here for the intro...
Hahahahaha just kidding, WB is awesome
Jheeez ISSA BIG MON TING 🚫🧢💪💪💯
Thanks my Grandma never saw it coming!
lol i got boxers fracture right now, using the time to study up.
Is the overhand more of a straight or a hook?
The nap time punch
Hey eveeeerrrybody much love ❤
Heeeeyyyy!!! Shout out from Glasgow!
@@NicolaMaxwell Oh shit! I'm from Canada haha! I just found out my great grandfather apparently was born in Oslo I wanna come to europe some day especially Scotland seems like such a pretty place!
Wonderboy, Paulo Costa is out of his fight with Bobby Knuckles. You’ve gotta shine the welterweights and move up and step in to replace him! They keep screwing you out of your title shot at 170, and you’ve already beaten Rob before. Perfect time to make a debut at 185!?
what's up everybody everybody
Thanks wonderboy I’ve been wondering if Ufc 4 striking was legit this confirms my striking knowledge I shall fight u for the belt after u beat Colby
dear mr thompson what do yo think of japaneese jujutsu or judo for mma??
"Should I throw an overhand right like this or like this"
-Correct Answer "Yes" lol my favorite answer in all of martial arts
I love sweet T.
He said Pounding, LOL
You got scammed off a title shot bro
