I was the one sending you the DM about this one. It turned out i was more afraid of myself after my injury, then getting punched, but this definitely helped, thank you Tony.
For a beginner I’ve never really struggled with being scared of being punched in the face, after my first sparring session I was obviously scared to get punched most people are but after I got hit once I fell in love with the sport and can’t wait to see where I go!
The best way to get over the fear of getting punched in the face is to get punched in the face. Spar more often. The double end bag is a great way to train your eyes for something coming at you.
I'm no fighter, my bag is racing motorcycles and the best practice for racing motorcycles is racing motorcycles. So yes i agree with getting punched in the face is probably the best practice for getting punched in the face.
My buddy wrestled at Univ of Md., got into it one night at a bar in College Park with a boxer from the Naval Academy (we found out after the fact). My buddy eventually got the best of him when it went to the ground, but damn he took some shots coming out of the gate!! Said he had never been punched so hard in his life and almost backed off when he realized what he was up against.
true, it's a lot less painful or scary than people think. not a lot of nerves there, but if you do get hit hard enough for it to have hurt, you just get knocked silly and can't feel it as well anyway. i don't *like* getting hit in the face, but it's definitely not the least pleasant place i've been hit lol
Thanks again Tony. We’ve being practicing these 3 drills and the kids are enjoying (some Giggling) and having fun with it. Coach Mando from the Alamo City. 👍🇺🇸🥊
Particularly like the second suggestion. I've mainly done this exercise for the jab, but adding three punch combos is a really good idea. Also, like the third suggestion of the tag game.
This channel has changed my life i lost 7 pounds so far and joined a gym 2 weeks ago you gave me the confidence to go for it and to get in shape with a useful sport
Hi Tony, thanks for the amazing videos! I also have the fear to get hurt, it really bugs me because it affects me in sparring as well mentally in real life. I can't find the courage to spar anymore, also partially to my anxiety, whilst my coach said he really wants to see me more often, because he believes im a knock-out fighter.
I've done some of these when I started a few months ago, including shadow boxing but with the other person. It helped me quite a bit, I don't look away like I used to
This is the one thing I've always been worried about, since I always flinch and freeze up, which is why I've never done sparring Thanks as always, Tony, and especially for making my Thursday morning wonderful! 👏😁💖
Hey I’m a new boxer and I was wondering if you had any boxers that were afraid of hurting the other guy and the process of them getting over that. As always your content is awesome!
Great Tony i dont alway comment ,But i do watch your uploads ✌🇮🇪❤💪👊 my dad was a amature boxer and i had about 6 mates growing up were irish all Ireland champs. Never boxed just trained on off for years mate ,to much into my drink and girls lol , but plenty street fights , boxing helped there. 50ies now punch stil throw a punch 😂🤣👊
I have seen many channels with millions subscribers but at end I found a wonderful, authentic and MOST helpful channel for boxing I really appreciate your work sir.. I want to ask one thing that in second drill can we do dodge or movement instead of defending the punch..? And sir I want to ask that I am getting my eyes close during sparring and I want some exercise for that (I have seen your video on the respected topic ).... Thank you sir 🙏🙏 Eagerly waiting for your answer..
I have practiced 3 different styles of Martial Arts. And the most important thing I have learned, is that boxing is one of the best " martial arts" to learn. If I could live my life over, I would learn boxing at 5 years old.
Exactly why every time you see a MMA, karate or whatever and general tough guys fight boxers in a boxing ring they always lose! Because boxers learn and practice punching, rolling, sliding and countering. Boxing is as strategic as it is trying to knock someone out in 2 minutes. Boxers wear them out with jabs, rolling, defending and footwork. Then the other guys who are always trying to knock you out in 2 minutes and then they're wore out by the 3rd round and then it's time to pounce, go in and slash, open them up and good night!
Hey Tony. thanks for the videos. I just took up boxing (at 54 hahah) and I am using your videos as a guide. Thank you. I have some pain in the palm directly below both thumbs. Is this a strapping issue or technique?
@@qdontae6 So far so good. I'm the oldest in my group of beginners, but there's a 28 year old too. Most of the people are late teens/early 20s. I probably won't be sparring for another 3-6 months, so no news on getting punched in the face yet haha
Or be really small and weak because of your genes (like me) and pretty much everybody sparring are always bigger than you. Then when you get somebody your own size it’s just fun and games in comparison.
Can you make a video on reasons why you think people throw up or have problems with gagging through out sparring or high intensity drills (Besides the obvious one and that’s what you ate and when)? I had a few problems when I first started boxing and I’ve seen other people struggle with it as well. Also let these beginners know that’s it’s okay to push your body to that limit.
See like when I be in the ring sparring I always resort to keeping my hands up and throw jabs and nothing else and it's only because of how uncomfortable I am and I feel like with the amount of times you get hit without trying to be I feel like you have to develop heart and chin and stop caring so much about winning or losing and challenge yourself to see how determined aggressive and relentless you can be to win regardless if you lose or not
I use the speed bag a lot as a way to get used to leather coming quickly at my face. I also put on my head hear, grab a glove and lightly hit myself in the face with it. I would be interested to know if anyone else uses either of these.
Always good...Please do you know if its common to get tunnel vision after very heavy sparring or after a flight...Many thanks and thank you for your channel which I always look forward too....
Great content mate!🙌🏼🔥🎆. I just wanted to ask, when in the clinch should you use maximum strength to get yourself out of it since your opponent would be in a very vulnerable position in that situation??
Hi thanks a lot for sharing your experiences to us im a begginer and your guidensis are helping me to go to the next level faster champion🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇😍😍😍❣❣❣

Thank you Mr Jeffrey great work Sir
Thanks for helping me out trying to overcome the fear of getting hit and be able to get back up and fight back 🔥
Dude you're pure gold!!!! I was wondering if you could do a tutorial for countering hooks
My daughter so needed this video. Thanks!
Just get crazy and spar with a huge sparring partner for a while then all the normal sized guys dont seem so bad.
Or be really small and weak because of your genes (like me) and pretty much everybody sparring are always bigger than you. Then when you get somebody your own size it’s just fun and games in comparison.
Great technique to get brain damage without having actual fights
@@ba1732 that really depends how hard you're sparring
