Great comment mate, but I just hope that these recent vids he has uploaded, are just an introduction to his concepts for new people (People that wasn´t subbed to his channel for 8 years, like me who have been waiting for this mans comeback sine 2012 when I subbed to his channel) and that he is really planning to come back as a coach with 2020 gems, cause every teaching Marvin does, is a gem. Hope he doesn´t disappear for another 8 years.
@@TheEd1225 That seems illogical. Pardon me because i'm no boxer, but i'm also pretty sure learning good fundamentals and theory is always the best to start out, no? You can only get so far by learning by doing, if you don't learn theory and fundementals early on, you're limiting yourself.
@@paynevess8822 “I’m no boxer”... Before I even finish reading the rest of your response. Go to any reputable gym and you’ll see; you’ll see that learning this shit does not require a TED talk. Learn the fundamentals, have a coach correct your form and keep practicing. All the talk about moving out of reach and switching rhythm is learned by DOING and EXPERIENCE Not by a lecture. These folks eyes were glazed over.
@@TheEd1225 I understand where you're coming from but I'm pretty sure he does actually put his theories to practice. At the end of the video he does mention actually applying the theory. In this video he talks a lot in theory but we can't assume that's all he does.
@@k3nny235 you’re right. I’ve made several assumptions. It could be that he’s doing a seminar. I guess it comes down preference. If Teddy Atlas, Mayweather, Rooney (RIP) came to do a seminar I’d want them to see me in action and give me practical advice, hold mitts etc But it all comes down to preference 🤷🏽♂️
Ironic how the moment i started watching you, you come back. Youre the reason i started boxing, your footwork is elegant, mike tyson said everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face but with amazing footwork, you dont have to go in mindless and with the mentality, the stonger one wins because in this case, the smarter one wins
I started training MMA with a friend out of his garage a few months ago and Marvin Cook was one of fhe first he told me to watch. To this day, i will rewatch because i learn something new every time.
Speaking as someone who’s never stepped inside a ring, Marvin’s teachings got me eager to start my footwork at home. Keep it up, Marvin. Absolutely will continue watching. Thank you.
I'm hoping to see Marvin spar because I'm seeing the same videos on "move your feet", "look down the rifle", "step to your right to win" and "work your jab" etc. As a visual learner it would be great to see this all in practice. Thank you for the videos, Marvin.
@Terel SC I'm a real fighter buddy,boxer,cage fighter,kick boxer,mui thi....I fight foreal...so when I say something it's coming from a fighters vision
@@parrisrobinson5083 I’m why won’t you try it to see if it works? Obviously the mma fighters and the wrestlers listening to him in the video and in person trust his knowledge. And you watched his videos for a reason, so why he needs to validate himself when you clicked the video?
That's the thing about slipping and rolling you have to use your footwork with your head movement since the opponent can easily come in angle and you're easily to get hit. That's the thing that I realized in my previous sparrings.
My son is 10 years old has been boxing for a little less than a year, I came across your videos and when we’re not at the gym we practice what we learn from you and your videos. Now every time he spars, he implements what he sees in your videos and his game has change exponentially! Thank you so much! We hope that one day we’re able to meet you In person and thank you for content you put out! From a father trying to raise his son into a respectful young man, but also an elite fighter, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Happy thanksgiving coach!
Good stuff. That last part tho like even Floyd Mayweather has had to ask where he was at on the scorecards. U get wrapped up in what ur doing second to second that u forget ur being judged. A lot of times youll have it where both guys think they won the fight too right? Same thing. One of them will have to be told by someone on the outside they lost.
"You should be able to see the fight, inside the fight." Man, that's something to ponder on. So much knowledge in such few words and not much demonstration needed. Today is spar day at my gym. Although we are traditional Muay Thai, we do practice our boxing from time to time - going just hands. I will be sure to remember this video. Thank, man. 🙏🏾
Only Pros can defeat Logic smtims with all my due rspct to ur teachings coach👐... yet some fighters as Mayweather can manage gr8 defence against very heavy shots against the rope with just head movements n philly shell gr8 experience with Time...yet still moves his feet after the pressure ! So anwy I still agree on what u say after all !
Maintaining balance at all times inorder to be able to counter and fire off your offense at will. So much knowledge in such a short video. Love it coach.
When he went ghost I legit tried searching him up on the internet. Needless to say the dude was a ghost and i was so sad about it becasue the quality of knowledge this guy drops on boxing as an ART is something that's very rare to find on the youtube algorithm with all these "fighting fitness channels" etc. Welcome back Marvin it's good to hear from you. Still shredded and punches lookin hella sharp
That's an excellent way to explain this - "defence signal through the legs". It is definetely great and practical key to understand the principle. Just found your videos on TH-cam a couple days ago and it is pure gold. I am definetely subscribing. Continue your work, sir!
Glad to have you back with new videos for us to learn ! all the way from singapore and i love the way you explain things it helps me visualize better what to do !
Have actually tried out many of your boxing methods Marvin and they actually work really well (never doubted that they wouldn't) thanks for sharing such great advice and content in your videos👍
Recently I lost my first match exactly becaue I was trying to be too dodgy against volume fighter. I had a big height and reach advantage but just could not capitalize on it. I only fully realized and accepted this after re-watching the fight. My question is what can I keep in mind, what to focus on, during sparings to start converting my style to more stance controled approach? I think this is more in my head than anything else.
True boxers stance will ensure you’re a deterrent against your opponents offense. Proper footwork and mobility will make sure you can initiate your offense. Position before for submission.
What type of drills can I use to help my 8 year old with his feet? He’s a powerful puncher but sometimes has a hard time with fighters that pressure him ... I want to drill him with footwork
This was good. Where are you man?! Hehe. I’d love to join a club like this. Can’t afford it. I want to see if I can first regain my body and fitness back and then see if my body can undertake a really serious training starting now at 40. I haven’t lost the motivation.
Coach, how would this work on opponent which has reach advantage? If you are always stepping out or a side, how can you gain advantage over taller opponent? If he is holding reasonably well stance, aren't you done with this approach?
Marvin is the Daniel Day Lewis, of uploaders.. he only puts something out every 8 years but, its oscar worthy

Completely agree
Agreed! as long as Marvin is doing ok I’m happy to watch the videos as they come
🤣🤣🤣🤣 they always bangers doe
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
”You should be able to see the fight from inside the fight”
Marvin Cook.
I agree with this even in life.
Calm in the storm.
When he said that it resonated with me. He's awesome. I love that quote. He is a great teacher!
Boxing is a concentrated model of real life.
The return of the king
The king of talking A LOT.. and hardly show by doing. Learn by doing, then learn the theory.

Footwork is definitely a key principle to evading and setting up shots. 👍👍👍
marvin makes me want to learn boxing when this quarantine is over.
my only wish is to find an awesome teacher like you dude.
You can learn while your on quarantine. Practice in nearby park or some open space in your house.
Might need a sparring partner tho
We're not in quarantine anymore bro, go outside!
My coach is awesome! 💯
Find a coach that works for you!
Imagine quarantine takes 8 years to finish

1:20 Besides stepping off you can also feint and throw a right uppercut as your opponent is ducking

Brilliant!!!!! Well done love your videos brother!! Keep them coming
"Y ur defense sux" I've been trying to tell em MC
Great videos love the explanations. Just started out as a hobby and trying to improve have decent footwork so will try to keep this in mind 👍🏻
“ Defensive signal is on your feet” Super helpful
My sensei used to talk about this all of the time in jiu-jitsu. He talked about the importance of moving your whole body off the line of attack.
You're a good teacher.
Easy sub your videos are absolute gems.
Bro, this was awesome.
Can’t wait to see the next video!! I hope Marvin is doing all well
Keep these coming please . I appreciate Everyone of these videos and love to share them

You should give analysis on current fighters as well. Would be a great boost to your channel.
I never thought I’d see another video from this man , much appreciated 💪🏽💪🏽
Please keep uploading marvin!!!
NO WAY Marvin Cook uploaded a video
Check out this channel, he's been uploading for days now!!!!!! Amazing content.
i need a coach like this guy one day
I wanna know who disliked the video. I just want talk
Rival team😅
God bless you my brother. Good seeing you again Coach.💪🙏
Good to see you back
What type of drills can I use to help my 8 year old with his feet? He’s a powerful puncher but sometimes has a hard time with fighters that pressure him ... I want to drill him with footwork
Loma did dancing. Maybe try games of tag.
Tennis
You deserve more respect and fame
Thank you so much, brother.
Legitimately, I want to know why someone would dislike this?
God bless you sir your content is definitely heaven sent
Damn I wanted him to be my trainer
These videos help a rookie like me. Thanks homie
