I found this channel today and watched a few of the videos. I just realised that this young guy actually runs a real peekaboo boxing Academy. That’s very cool and I didn’t expect to see such young guy actually teaching this like an expert but he is really good and definitely legit. I’m impressed.
I am an amateur fighter and I am learning the style thanks to you, I am from Mexico City, your videos and explanations are greatly appreciated, my boxing teacher does not teach me like this.
there is also a different willi bag technik that i have seen from teddy Atlas when he explains it more tight and elbows in especially if you Punch the 565
man it is my dream to train in that gym by the trainer like you who expertease in the peek a boo style and to become champ. i,ve been training peek a boo style by myself for like more than a year. but i live very far away in pk
EXCELLENT STUFF. Carter are you able to please answer some queries I have? In an orthodox stance. When performing no.1 left hook to face do you pivot off the front foot. When performing the right hook face/right hand do you pivot off the rear foot. I am guessing it would be the same for all other punches. I fully understand shifting off the centreline principle but would be very grateful for clearing up this. Thanking you. Great channel. You should do actual teaching online...you are good enough. Hope to hear from you soon
Coach, have you heard of a boxer called Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz? What are your thoughts on his fighting style? It looks very reminiscent of the tight-defence. also thanks for the video, I'm a 21 year old proespective amateur boxer in the UK I study your videos with great interest, I truly believe Cus's style is a system to surpass all styles when mastered. I eagerly wait for more videos :)
I personally see a similarity and i really admire isaac cruz and i think he will definitely be great. I live in uk too btw and one fighter sorta similar to cruz is nick ball. When you look into peakaboo boxing more i feel like youd see that the styles are way more different and the similarities are kind of superficial in my opinion
@@s8tn622Thanks for the comment :) I haven't heard of Nick Ball I'll have to watch some of his fights. and you are right, peekaboo styles vary depending on the fighter but the similarity I was talking about was that I noticed Isaac using various fundamentals of peekaboo. Like always being defensively responsible, every punch is thrown with bad intentions, hands held to cheekbones and keeping his head down using the top of his skull to deflect straight punches, and one advanced technique being that he doesn't really shift or spring to the sides but he shifts *forward* frequently instead of just stepping forward to throw off the opponent's distance control.
@@s8tn622I guess you can't really pull off shifts and springs to the side in those lighter weight classes since everyone's much too fast to pull that off, or maybe I'm wrong?
I gotta ask is the peek a boo style good for tall people? I am a 5'8 which on the surface Im just the average height, but I live in the Philippines and filipinos and filipinas are short. So I thought of this question.
@@jozefrevay4710 What I mean is I will be short for foreign countries, but I live in the Philippines And people here are shorter than me. We are talking about 5.5s, 5.4s, 5.6s, 5.3s. So basically put will the peek a boo style work for tall people?
I think i will fly from morroco to america NY , just to join this gym because im using this style but i need physical mentoring to get even better and take on the world ! By the way carter how much is the price to join the gym ???
Hi trainer carter i am from tunisia and i want to join the gym if you have information about how can i study boxing managment in usa to get visa and to get money to join the gym
Hi,Carter.I have few question.When I hit the punches, does the weight shift to the opposite side? In this video, it seems that striking 3.4 does not transfer weight to the opposite leg, and also where is the body weight of hitting the jab?.Thanks)
im not carter but you want to have almost 60 on opposite and 40 on your other foot when throwing a jab. you also want to weave and use your hips to gain momentum and power from the hips
If you can do 10km in under an hour, everyday, you'll be fine. Running merely gives you a good cardio foundation for you to build on other necessary physical attributes a lot easier. But nothing will prepare you better for a fight more than fighting itself. Very fit people will also fatigue really fast compared to the threshold of fighter fatigue gained from real time experience. Simply because any hardship the body endures, the mind adapts and evolves specifically. You can't cardio your jaw or your mentalities ability to handle the stress of being in a fight let alone, prepare to manage the anxiety of anticipating one.
Can i just ask one thing? When he slips i thought you said in the cus style you slip from your waist and move your head further from the centre line in an older video? Is the type of slip in this video also valid?
@@s8tn622 Great question. In this video I was simply showing him the punching form, not how to slip. I only had him slip when throwing the uppercuts, as a means of loading his weight. Normally, you train in a way where you get off of the center line and then throw.
@@peekabooboxingacademyis it ok to slip like how it is done in the orthordox boxing style by pivoting the front/back leg then the hips or is it not compatible with the cus style
@@s8tn622in traditional boxing I think the emphasis is on slips and punches being separately executed, whereas Cus's style allows you to weave offense and defense together, which imo is superior. By slipping further than traditional boxing and slipping from the waist, there are 2 benefits. With one slip you can potentially avoid 2 punches because you slip so far, like a fast 7-2 can be avoided with just one left slip, whereas a traditional boxer would have to slip twice, really fast and so risk getting hit by the second punch because they emphasise only moving minimal distances to avoid punches. The other benefit is what seems like a mistake to traditional boxers - slipping so far takes more time. Yes, but it loads your next punch from the side you slipped to with immense power. Try it on a heavybag, slip far to the left and as soon as your waist locks, throw a left hook while pushing off the ground a little with your left leg as you slip back to the centre, you won't believe you hit the bag that hard.
When your throw a 6 wich is a right hook to the body, don’t you have to switch to a southpaw stance first in order to be in a spot where your opponent can’t hit you back? I mean cut the ring first with a spring to the side for exemple. Or the both way are good? I remember that cus telling a fighter to do that in a old footage in the gym
That's advanced and situational, you can't just spring to the side randomly you have to find an opportunity for it. Most of the time if you spring or shift your opponent will be able to time you because you can't do that fast enough AND throw a punch before they can react. By the way I'm no expert this is purely just from what I understand but the best time to shift to the sides is when the opponent is trapped in the corner or against the ropes that way he can't back out of it and possibly hit you. The best time to spring is after a setup punch or a distraction. Say your opponent goes into a highguard every time you 7. Give him a few aggresive 7s as you walk forward to provoke him into going defensive, obscuring his vision which enables you to spring to the side- in that moment, his eyes are covered by his gloves and you are staring at his juicy liver from the side. It's basically learning patterns and tendencies of the opponent and finding ways to take advantage of it, people think Mike was a muscle meathead but he was really a genius tactician, a very intelligent boxer.
@@jxrin3 I agree, most of the time I don’t use 6 because I prefer land it in a spot where I’m not going to be hit back so I just throw either a straight 2 or a spring to the side first. Both way are good, most important is doing what you’re confortable with
one combo that makes it really easy is when I 7 but slip to the right AS I 7, like at the same time, which puts you in perfect position to fire the 6 immediately from the slipped position, as you would slip right before a 6 on the heavybag. Preoccupies them with the 7 as you get in position to 6. My go-to in sparring is the above, but during the 6, slip left in the crouched position and come up for a 1. So a 7(slip right) > 6(crouch slip left) > 1(jump up from left crouched slip) use the momentum of the slips to add to the force of the punch, more mass involved. try it, works rly well for me
A little tipp for the cameraman. If he explains how to move the foot, it would be nice to show them, for more understanding.
Are you cameraman? Lmao
@andresugueruaga6920 I'm very sorry that you obviously aren't loved. When a simple suggestion for improvement triggers you like that.
@sgtlion311 all right bro, each suggestion d be welcome to help...
Lack of common sense lmao

Thank you Carter! We needed this tutorials.
This guy seems like he is an utterly awesome instructor!
My background is in general martial arts with some boxing , but I've always been fascinated with this style .
Thank you for sharing all this information! I'm so grateful for it!
This instructor is excellent
the channel is a treasure
Thanks for the in depth explanation Coach Carter 👍
This is frigging great, thank you!
OMG! This is amazing!!! Thank you! RIP Cus! ❤️

That guy is a good listener too
Thank you, dear coach!
Let’s gooooo been waiting for new upload
there is also a different willi bag technik that i have seen from teddy Atlas when he explains it more tight and elbows in especially if you Punch the 565
Will you be posting a video with the movements you mentioned we’re supposed to do after each punch (slips, dips, weaves)
@@xKINGDREx Check the Willie bag tutorial on the channel 🥊
Can you make a video on punching forms in the peek a boo style please. love your videos btw
Good job instructor !
When you throw an uppercut ( no 3 or no 4 ) do you transfer weight to the other foot ?
Great trainer

Wooo new vid Love it
Hey Carter I also have a few questions about some gloves that I’ve seen you use could you help me please?
Could've demoed the #8 punch (body jab) as there are discrepancies in how to throw it.

Yeh that's smart but they'll probably adapt at some point
that dude did not absorb all that information, lol
he absorbed a little but he was telegraphing and i think his footing was wrong
also he was barely even weaving and using his hips
His jab is weak
needs to use more momentum and hips but he also needs a bulk 🫢
Im gonna work very hard. See you next year coach! 🫡
