I had my first fight at 12 yrs. old and fought all the way till I was 25. 2 golden glove titles 2 state and 1 Australian title. I'm now 34 and long retired due to a slipped disc in my lower back and my left-hand index knuckle has completely sunk in from breaking it twice. Just writing that to say I know the sport well and I gotta say your movement is on point and everything you have said in this video is on point! All the best.
appreciate you brother!!! sorry to hear about your injuries!!! i really hope they have healed so that you can have a joyful life!!! keep active and i wish you nothing but blessings to you and yours brother!!!

@@danduffy455id say a 1 or 2 pounder. Looks like a speed rope until he slows down and let's it hit the floor which makes his skill even more impressive.
Great video. I remember when i started boxin back in 93 in Chicago my trainer DIDN'T allow us to throw a punch or hit the bag for 3 months. He wanted us to learn footwork 1st & then everything fell into place. Footwork is KEY
@@ladsd679 Alas, no more. I stopped teaching group classes after Covid. My school at the time was run out of Fitness First gym in Arlington, MA. I teach a few students a couple of times a week out of my garage gym. At almost 60 yo I’m focusing more on my own fitness while protecting my joints for playing in my band.
Lost my leg, need to learn this stuff all over again. What was once natural is now one of the hardest things I can attempt. Thanks for making videos like this... The verbal coaching is what helps the most. Been boxing for nearly 30 years, and right now it's like none of that ever happened... but the verbal... Man, that helps. Keeps me motivated as fuck. THANK YOU.
Stay strong my friend, Im a dancer who just happened upon this video and I cant imagine my mind state if I was in your position, I hope wherever you are you are continuing your journey and Im praying for you 🙏
This is the most realistic traning/demonstration on TH-cam. If you are starting and want to get serious, save this tips. Can't believe don't have a massive like and coments but it will. Thanks for the good work.
@frr212 it depends on where your at in your training, don't you think? This very good info for beginners to intermediate, to have an understanding of the craft they might be entering. When I boxed they just threw me in I had no understanding of the bad habits I was forming, granted I understand that each boxing is different.
When I first got into martial arts, I quickly learned that legends are great because they've mastered the fundamentals. Elementary principles like "footwork" are pivotal building-blocks that should never be skipped but embraced to truly achieve greatness.
As a 200 pounder this footwork is so motivating. When I watch my peers we tend to just “survive” moving forward but man I want to be that big guy that’s moving and shaking. Confusing the shit out of my opponent. I can move but it takes so much energy after a while. And my jump rope is horrible.
200pound is still pretty light, you can be as fast as you train to be, go get it! Sincerely 264 pounder that wishes to be the fast big guy, im also getting there ;)
I started boxing to lose weight & learn self defense.. at 346lb.. I fell in love with movement & I noticed the more I moved around.. the better I felt & longer I can breath without running out of wind.. Pain Is Inevitable but Suffering Is Optional.. after 3 - 5 years (I lost count of time because I didn’t care how long it would take) I am at 230lb & my speed shocks my gym partners & sparring partners all the time when we train.. I don’t mean to brag but it’s the truth.. they do not expect someone my size to move just as fast as the lightweights.. my height is 182cm so it might look confusing to some.. but what you see in the video is exactly what I do everyday in the gym.. fall in love with movement.. it is much better than to force yourself to move
I can see you dancing to the rhythm of your heartbeat, bro. Beautiful footwork. I love when high-level strikers equate good foot movement to dancing. Martial arts and dance are delightfully symbiotic. Two sides of the same coin.
As a Muay Thai practitioner, my training regiment is near identical to that of a boxer- and I truly believe that it gives me an edge. Love the content man, got yourself a new subscriber.
Me personally? My style would be more Muay Thai/Boran, French Kickboxing, Judo, BJJ, Escrima, Krav Maga, Wing Chun, and Northern Shaolin. Plus, you absolutely right, along with jogging, treadmill, pull ups, incline dumbbells bench press , kettlebell swings, bicycle curls, etc. But stretch for 10 minutes before any of this💯💯💯💯
Your focus during this training and informational video is inspiring! I trained boxing when i was younger and the discipline you show really takes me back.
Your badass bro! I mean that in my heart! Just watching this short video gives me inspiration to go out and start training. I’m 44 years old and not a young man anymore, but again it gives me inspiration and motivation. Keep up the good work and your podcast Chez!!
Massive salutes n respects to Chez , great work n appreciate sharing these tips w everyone on TH-cam as well…greetings from Rome Italy, n our entire Italian rugby national team….👋🏻🇮🇹
What you said about jogging/running is very true. Drives me insane when people think you don’t need it. It’s extremely good for mind strengthening as you mentioned. Great videos mate.
Not to mention, if somebody can't last jogging for 15 minutes how do they expect to fight in a 5 round boxing match? I know there are breaks between rounds but stamina goes out the window real fast and comes back a lot slower if you're not trained properly. I say this from experience 🤣
@@ti2218 Well you gotta train both aerobic (runs) and anaerobic (sprints)stamina/endurance. You need both as a fighter but mostly anaerobic. Especially in MMA where you are fighting either 15 mins or 25 mins. So why would you run 10k for 40 minutes+? Makes no sense. It's better to push for more kms in 25 minutes which is way more efficient for an MMA fight.
Agree, I sucked at running for a long time and the army broke my mind almost and pushed my mental to another level. Shit it still hurts to run but I love the hurt so much more
I like everything. But I don't agree with that you need to jog , I am a pro boxer 7 and 0 mid America champ and i havnt jogged miles since my 3rd fight. It hurts my knees and I did not get any benifit from it cardio wise that I could noticed in sparring , I got way better results from interval training on the bike and bag cardio drills using way less time 🤷🏿♂️ it's just FACT for me
Opened a gym during covid, and my coach moved away. Now that things are getting back to normal, I’ll be taking over as the gym’s future coach. Will definitely use a lot of content like this to implement. Awesome content. Just subscribed
I've been bodybuiding and lifting heavy weights for 20 years, the last two years i've completely changed my philosophy about trainimg and somewhat about life, so I decided to drop some weight and completely change my way of training ( I was about 100kg at 183cm and now I'm down to 88).I Started jumping rope (and that's probably what I'm the best at so far) because I wanted to learn how and also for the cardio but it evolved with me trying to learn boxing, I joined a boxing gym but unfortunately mostly train alone because my work schedule don't allow me to take classes.. My goal is to learn to move like you, you look like a cat when they are fighting, I like to watch and try to copy the moves but it is actually pretty hard :)
appreciate your feedback brother!!! just keep training hard!!! and if possible, please do keep me updated wit your journey!!! happy holidays brother!!!
The internet is full of bad training methods and advice. This isn't one of those videos. Super solid advice! Great content. I remember when I was able to get a hundred reps without missing a lick with the jump rope. Had me gasping for air. Felt like I ran a seven min mile. Cardio and foot work are the foundation.
These exercises are good for most sports when it comes to staying bouncing and light on the feet. Helps with proper footwork, basketball for me. Nice work!!
This is honestly one of the best boxing videos I have ever seen! Nobody else on, TH-cam has stress the importance of being light on your feet and just moving. No drills no agility ladders just freaking move.
Man, this is why I subbed. I want more footwork in my training and wow yours is awesome for reference to see how it's done. Yeah I completely agree running is so important. I heard in boxing it's called roadwork. I got to make myself love it and get into shape.
Chez you're one bad dude thank you for these golden tips, I can't wait to train them and apply it, appreciate the knowledge and experience! definitely gained a new subscriber!
This fighter moves like Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed. I was reminded of their training montage in Rocky III watching this. GREAT foot work and movement. IF you're not a professional boxer and you want to be, go after it. You'll do very well. 🇺🇸 💪
I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to do good in shadow boxing. Heavy bag and Shadow boxing are the least things that I wanted to do when I go to the gym. But now, these are my favorite. My feet are so much lighter now. I can do pivots and angles without dragging my feet (it just flows).
Smashed the like, & hit subscribe ‼️Thank you for both the training advice and the humble attitude!! It’s rare when someone doesn’t have to throw their ego into the mix and much respected!! I can’t wait for more content!!
I think moving around or just dancing is the best teacher if you trying to work on footwork or also play other sports like basketball and soccer it helped me get to know my body more.
I wanted to say.i did bear crawls for 3 days .I never felt any excercise make me feel my whole upper body.like bear crawls does . thanks bro for adding your guidance to my workout.i hope you see this message.also here my workout routines. I take 1 day break after a workout. 1:160 push ups( different variations) 2:150 bench press ups 3: 250 Hindu squats.(partly because they were done by great Gama wrestler.whom I admire a lot) 4:few minutes hanging 5: 16 biceps pull ups 6: 40 dips I only lack in jogging as I hate doing it.
i love the great gama!!! there was a time where i was doing 500 squats and 500 pushups everyday as a warmup because of gama!!! it would be 10 sets of 50 squats followed by 50 pushups. then i would do my freestyle calisthenics stuff right after. if you like this high rep wrestler bodyweight work, you should look into karl gotch. he was a beast. also ric flair. he had crazy bodyweight workouts for when he stayed i hotels
Sugar Ray Robertson, look up his dance videos..Ali got most of his inspiration from Robertson. As Ali said, Pound for pound the greatest..Insane footwork..You my friend have exceptional footwork.. Every one should watch ( Sugar Ray Robinson - 128-1 - P4P The Greatest (Original Documentary) .
Wow. Thanks for explaining and demonstrating these basics. They were always so obvious to me, but you made it click as to why they are so important and fundamental. Here's to getting back in shape in 2023!
Brother you are Insane. And these videos are totally fire.🔥Short and straight to the point. Some things which you teach are very fresh and original and I haven't heard them anywhere else. Would really like to see more and more videos coming from you. Maybe you can start a video playlist series in which you can start to teach from the very beginning. Lets say a total novice. I want to learn boxing but don't have any trainer in my area. Maybe if you can start a series Starting with basic movements and exercises which one need to master in starting their journey of boxing. Love from India.❤💪
As a Gardener, I found this video helpful with my footwork. I can now walk on wood chips barefoot without any problems now 😂. It’s pretty clear, I need to more time on the rope. Great guide mate. New subscriber! Love from California.
Alot of people throw that term around when it doesnt really apply to where they are at...In this case brother, It Does apply.... a masterful demonstration ...your fluidity, speed and grace of movement is testimony to the hard work you have put in.... Boxing trainer and martial artist here..46yrs experience.
Footwork, as easy and fluid as it seems when pros do it, is notoriously difficult for a beginner like me. And I'm a lighter guy (62 kg). So I dedicate a lot of time just jumping rope and trying to do some footwork (forward and backward, side to side, pivot, circles around a brick, etc). Helps me to get into the flow before I start incorporating punching and slips and rolls in my shadowboxing. The tips shared on this channel are absolutely amazing for a beginner like me.
Coming back here after a long time of consistent practice since I watched this for the first time. This is one of the best videos that helped me tremendously, not only because of the simplicity and truth of those 3 tips, but also because of watching you moving so smoothly really got imprinted in my mind and it became the mental image of how I want to move. I'm nowhere near as moving like you do, but I'm miles away from how I used to move. If you see this, thank you!
Randomly stumbled on this video. I know nothing about boxing but I know how important footwork is for any sport. This guy looked like he was dancing at the beginning. It was so smooth and crisp
First Time visiting this page and I have to say you give some great tips. I myself just started getting back into boxing again for some extra cardio. I'm in my 40s always loved boxing growing up but never got a chance to do it because we didn't have gyms in NY neighborhood. Im.slowly getting back into boxing shape and the tips you just gave on footwork will Definitely help me to get back lighter on my feet. The side to side and back and forth drills Definitely help with it. Thanks again for the tips
That footwork is beautiful! No need to over complicate things just drill the fundamentals until it becomes second nature. I love this style of playful training.
I grew up with a mix of shotokan, BJJ and aikido and always loved sparring more than anything. I never got into boxing as a discipline cause it felt limiting but I started about 6 months ago due to new local boxing events. Your footwork is legend-tier and your tips are golden; jogging, calisthenics, bag work and sparring twice a week has gotten me back into shape and I appreciate the art of boxing in a way I never have before.
Great work Chez. I’m sure the path you took was rough and I know you had to go through what you have to become who you u are. I’m sure God has his hands over you and needs you. Being said. I think your time to rise is now. You can use all your street wisdom to teach and educate kids going the wrong direction. These videos are some of the best. You should reach out and contact the school districts and tell them you’d like to teach a boxing class for kids or something? These teaching should be shown all over brother. Thank you for sharing.
I really love your content mate, the videos are so simple, no annnoying intros or music just simple, straight to point and one camera angle. I much prefer this content over over edited and complicated videos. Please keep your content like this it’s great as it is 💪🏻 Also really inspires me to work harder in my boxing
Prime Rigondeaux was my favorite pure boxer who knows what's he doing with his footwork, the pivots are perfect and no unnecessary movement and over moving his footwork. These examples and tips are great! Thanks!
I truly thank you for this video. I've done a lot of different martial arts. But I've never really got into Shadow boxing. I just tried playing around and I didn't realize I was actually a natural at it. But this really filled in the blanks. Thanks again for sharing.
Just incredible. Fantastic movement. I’m too old to be that fast but I’m going to work at my skipping. I always say that in boxing speed kills. Thanks for a great video.
You put running into perspective thank you. I’m former military and running was something I hated, but I want to get into boxing again and know I have to do it. You said fights are long and grueling, so I gotta train my heart. I felt that; New sub incoming.
You make this shit so simple my brother- I’m still fumbling the crisscross but it was the timing. Now with the crisscross applesauce wording it’s definitely gon help my timing. Appreciate you bro 🙏🏽

Sugar Ray Robertson, look up his dance videos..Ali got most of his inspiration from Robertson. As Ali said, Pound for pound the greatest..Insane footwork..You my friend have exceptional footwork.. Every one should watch ( Sugar Ray Robinson - 128-1 - P4P The Greatest (Original Documentary) .
Wow. Thanks for explaining and demonstrating these basics. They were always so obvious to me, but you made it click as to why they are so important and fundamental. Here's to getting back in shape in 2023!
As always, thanks for the quality content brotha
thank you!!! blessings to you and yours and have a great day!!!
Love these lessons and tips. Very simple, practical, beneficial for all fitness levels, and absolutely no gimmicks.
Good delivery
Brother you are Insane. And these videos are totally fire.🔥Short and straight to the point. Some things which you teach are very fresh and original and I haven't heard them anywhere else. Would really like to see more and more videos coming from you. Maybe you can start a video playlist series in which you can start to teach from the very beginning. Lets say a total novice. I want to learn boxing but don't have any trainer in my area. Maybe if you can start a series Starting with basic movements and exercises which one need to master in starting their journey of boxing.
Love from India.❤💪
appreciate your input brother!!! i'll be working on this!!! be on the lookout for it!!! also, blessings to you and yours and have a great day!!!
@@CHEZCANTERE Cool. Thanks a lot!🙏🏼💪🏻
As a Gardener, I found this video helpful with my footwork. I can now walk on wood chips barefoot without any problems now 😂.
It’s pretty clear, I need to more time on the rope. Great guide mate. New subscriber! Love from California.

Alot of people throw that term around when it doesnt really apply to where they are at...In this case brother, It Does apply.... a masterful demonstration ...your fluidity, speed and grace of movement is testimony to the hard work you have put in.... Boxing trainer and martial artist here..46yrs experience.
I wish I would have seen this video before I started training. Such great advice. Thank you.
That footwork is just lovely to watch, so fluid and natural! Great advice too thank you :) Subbed.
Your one hell of a guy thank you 😊
I don’t want to box but I love the training and I want too keep fit for life. 🙏🏾
Everything comes from the ground so light footwork is an amazing advice thanks for this champ
Footwork, as easy and fluid as it seems when pros do it, is notoriously difficult for a beginner like me. And I'm a lighter guy (62 kg). So I dedicate a lot of time just jumping rope and trying to do some footwork (forward and backward, side to side, pivot, circles around a brick, etc). Helps me to get into the flow before I start incorporating punching and slips and rolls in my shadowboxing. The tips shared on this channel are absolutely amazing for a beginner like me.
Coming back here after a long time of consistent practice since I watched this for the first time. This is one of the best videos that helped me tremendously, not only because of the simplicity and truth of those 3 tips, but also because of watching you moving so smoothly really got imprinted in my mind and it became the mental image of how I want to move. I'm nowhere near as moving like you do, but I'm miles away from how I used to move. If you see this, thank you!
Me too, it’s not easy to find wonderful shadow boxing like that on TH-cam. Its maybe the best
10/10 Crystal Clear Advice from a Solid Genuine Guy 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Bro 🙏🙏🙏
Randomly stumbled on this video. I know nothing about boxing but I know how important footwork is for any sport. This guy looked like he was dancing at the beginning. It was so smooth and crisp
First Time visiting this page and I have to say you give some great tips. I myself just started getting back into boxing again for some extra cardio. I'm in my 40s always loved boxing growing up but never got a chance to do it because we didn't have gyms in NY neighborhood. Im.slowly getting back into boxing shape and the tips you just gave on footwork will Definitely help me to get back lighter on my feet. The side to side and back and forth drills Definitely help with it. Thanks again for the tips
That footwork is beautiful! No need to over complicate things just drill the fundamentals until it becomes second nature. I love this style of playful training.
Man, your content is pure gold. Much appreciate it from Mexico 🇲🇽 🌿
I grew up with a mix of shotokan, BJJ and aikido and always loved sparring more than anything. I never got into boxing as a discipline cause it felt limiting but I started about 6 months ago due to new local boxing events. Your footwork is legend-tier and your tips are golden; jogging, calisthenics, bag work and sparring twice a week has gotten me back into shape and I appreciate the art of boxing in a way I never have before.
get it brother!!! please do keep me updated with your training and progress!!!!
Great work Chez. I’m sure the path you took was rough and I know you had to go through what you have to become who you u are. I’m sure God has his hands over you and needs you. Being said. I think your time to rise is now. You can use all your street wisdom to teach and educate kids going the wrong direction. These videos are some of the best. You should reach out and contact the school districts and tell them you’d like to teach a boxing class for kids or something? These teaching should be shown all over brother. Thank you for sharing.
Every time I watch this, I've never been more jealous of anyone more in my life. Go, boy! You're flippin amazing!!!! 🥊🥊🥊
Amigo ! Excelente video. Gracias. New subscriber. Respeto a todos de Durango México 🇲🇽
Footwork and head movement are so important and so overlooked. Great lessons 👍 appreciate it.
Dude. This was awesome. Better than 95 percent of the crap out there online. Thank you for this. Keep up the great work!
You should be very proud of what your hard work has allowed you to do.
Dude ur amazing this is a big refresh from the trash we see today, u have such precise movement it makes me so excited watching u! WOW!!!
I really love your content mate, the videos are so simple, no annnoying intros or music just simple, straight to point and one camera angle. I much prefer this content over over edited and complicated videos. Please keep your content like this it’s great as it is 💪🏻
Also really inspires me to work harder in my boxing
😂 My Phones Definitely Monitoring Me But I’m Glad I Found You.
Your Explanations Are Clear & Concise.
Thank You ❤
Just discovered this channel and the info is great, but just watching him move is poetry in motion.
This is facts I play football and my coach as a lineman always told me hit the jump rope to help with my footwork and sure it did
I have the same footwork as you but I got it from playing soccer for year and being a dribbler lol. You’re a beast
Holy crap, Chez, you're insane. Keep up the good work.
Thank for all the advice I'm getting into kickboxing and my stamina is my toughest thing as well as keeping my footwork right
Prime Rigondeaux was my favorite pure boxer who knows what's he doing with his footwork, the pivots are perfect and no unnecessary movement and over moving his footwork. These examples and tips are great! Thanks!
The most beautiful footwork I have ever seen. Looks absolutely intuitive 👌
I truly thank you for this video. I've done a lot of different martial arts. But I've never really got into Shadow boxing.
I just tried playing around and I didn't realize I was actually a natural at it. But this really filled in the blanks.
Thanks again for sharing.
Definitely can tell . That came from hard hard work and experience. That's awesome man. Great video
Respect sir from Chicago!Great technically sound foot movement.Thanks for the tid bits bro!

Thanks again brother. Happy New Year to you, wishing you the best and all success and elevation and liftoff for 2023!
Just incredible. Fantastic movement. I’m too old to be that fast but I’m going to work at my skipping. I always say that in boxing speed kills. Thanks for a great video.
wow you taught me a lot in this short video and you always proved you can get a hell of a workout with just a small flat area...
Crazy! it’s really cool I’ll for sure follow your tips. Thanks ✌️
I bought the jump rope as a cheap form of cardio, but now I realize it's true power. Thank you.

Love that commentary on cone drills. Great noticing.
Can you please explain to me what ment by that 3:03
When bro started jumping rope I got goosebumps
You put running into perspective thank you. I’m former military and running was something I hated, but I want to get into boxing again and know I have to do it.
You said fights are long and grueling, so I gotta train my heart. I felt that; New sub incoming.
