I teach a fitness boxing class. We try to include more advanced techniques and fundamental boxing as it makes the workout pass more quickly, reduces the risk of injury, and is then useful in self defense. It is very tough to get people to keep their center of gravity over their stance, constantly adjusting their feet, shifting their weight without ever having all of their weight entirely on one foot... your video is great because it shows people how to DEFEND without putting themselves in a position where they CAN'T ATTACK. If you are off balance, blind, can't attack, even briefly, you become a punching bag in a spar or fight. Not fun!
Thanks a lot for this video! I'm laying here in bed with massive bruises from getting smashed by a pro at my gym (don't worry, coach is talking to him about lightening up). I definitely make all of these mistakes lol
@@HuwPewPew Ive sparred with pros whove never hurt me. Its actually some of the most productive sparring I’ve had. They rly shouldnt be hurting you tho if youre not even an amateur
@@MrDrPancreas I'm glad it worked for you man, sparring with people who are above your own skill level is always the ideal way to learn, however I feel like as the skill gap gets bigger so does the risk of the amateur just getting battered and not learning anything.
Yesterday was my first sparring session with a pro. So much of this is relevant lol. Looking forward to seeing what my coach has me drill next. Def keeping these in mind for open gym drills
Happy to hear mate, keep it up. And watch this vid mate th-cam.com/video/hvGZNDWNfqk/w-d-xo.html - this vid will give you tips on ur next sparring match. Good luck 👊🏻
It took some time but I'm so happy of how much better I got in boxing. With my classes, and working your drills and tips, I even started slipping/dipping my coaches punches in sparring. About to be 3 years in my training.
Bro, I'm an old man...54 and trained 35,40 years ago here in LA on Broadway at the old school Broadway Street gym. You make an old man want to come to London to get some training from you
Sir I started boxing now and I have not coach nor club i do it by watching Mike Tyson fights and your videos how can I improve my slip and role alone without partner
Great video as always,thanks a lot to you i can improve on boxing,Tip no5 is my common mistakes although i thought i have a good head movements and defences i don't add it to my footwork,and again thanks to you i can correct my mistake🙇🏿♂️
Had my first sparring session Saturday there, got my nose busted pretty good blood was everywhere noticed the guy I was sparring with didn't like that I got him in the face and went kinda hard. Then asked him how long was he boxing for and he said 3 years you shouldn't be boxing if you get your ego hurt be someone that has been doing it for 2 months and then just bump up the pace. Not gonna sparr with him again. Also had a headache the rest of the day and nose is still sore.
@@samuely3813 yeah grand my nose click's a little more then I remember but it's fine sparring this morning aswell so hopefully I don't get busted again. Thanks for asking.
Hey Tony, for some reason, I seem to remember you saying something about splashing your face with cold water without flinching to drill, well, not flinching.
Today I spared for first time and closing eyes was my biggest problem. My successful blocks was followed by closed eyes and then BOM out of nowhere usually right to the head 😀
Thank you sir... For all your videos.... I am a bullied person..... I am afraid of them because I have very bad experience If I resist them... I am felling like some one is tearing my inner soul whenever they bullied me... And because of afraiding them... I did not come out from my room.. I resist To went out from my home... I feel like I am coward. But from the when I see your first video on self defencing... I feel motivated now.. . Now I too feel that I can kick their @ss and live my life freely.... I can't even express your favour on me... Thank you sir.. Thank you so much...🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@ahmedalhamadi1231I too want to join but I can't put financial burden on my parents ... But from now I am motivated now... And now I am ready to kick their @ss🙏🙏 But otherwise thanks brother...
@@jadhav4704 Oh brother stil.. try your best to be in a martial arts gym... maybe they let you for free maybe parents help you you dont' know... don't give up. and yes bully's are bad and with ugly behaviour.
@@Tony_Jeffries I love your videos. Despite I practice kick boxing now, I still watch your videos to take note about tips. Thanks for everything, Tony, and happy birthday.
Tony , can you make a video about when on offense and they are hitting you when your trying to throw your combo what to do . I get stuck in sparing a lot trying to throw a combo and and they stop my combination or my flow but attacking with their own combinations
I like to shoot with both eyes open. This does two things: I am not getting fatigued using just one eye. I can more easily see other potential threats.
Good tips. My kids take kick box classes. And I am allowed to use the facilities solo. You are my coach now. I have mma gloves and 16 oz gloves. Could you do one about pros and cons etc.
Hey tony. Your videos have been very helpful for me while trying to get better at boxing. But I have one question, how can you break someone’s defense if they have their hand up high in a defensive kind of block?
Thank you Tony , your knowledge of boxing Is impressive and you talk about It with passion and dediction. Thank you so much for your work , bye from Italy
Yay I do do these things but started focusing on slipping rolling and Philly shell so much that sparring partners started predicting me still always working on head movement n what not though. There's always something new to learn and implement!
The more I watch and try boxing stance defense. The more I see the defense is a mirror of the offense. Or it feels that way. Your videos are so insightful. Thanks for the quality work 💪
Great video Tony. I have these mistakes, except closing my eyes, quite often. Mainly the footwork is my biggest issue, putting my hands up isn’t a usual issue but sometimes I forget it when I am getting tired or focusing too much on offense. Thanks for the advice. Also a small note about closing the eyes. As far as expecting a punch you shouldn’t close your eyes but when it comes to knowing when to close your eyes it should make you more aware as I have had punches hit my eye and it causes a slight distraction when fighting but when you maintain your focus it isn’t too much of a problem
Subbed you Tony, love the channel, great enthusiasm, friendly, helpful advice and a top approach to safety, with some decent banter thrown in. Wish you well with the channel buddy, all the best 👌👍

Hey got a question, is it weird that I am not scared of being hit even though I only sparred twice
i need to know basic in boxing sir coz i want to join battle of youtuber here in phillipines
give me your old gloves sir😁😁😁😁✌️
I was wondering if you had to step while slipping i thought you had to but i wasnt sure so thank you Tony
It is criminal that we're getting all of these lessons for free. Thank you Tony, you've completely transformed my boxing.
Don't worry, I'm sure he earns more than enough from the advertising
Not moving my feet when rolling/slipping is something I do often. Loving your work, Tony.
Check this out mate, th-cam.com/video/C4i__4LGtI0/w-d-xo.html -- this video will help you a lot!
I felt the same as soon as I saw the screenshot.
Always use your feet. Offense, Defense
same and I was wondering why I seem to be bad at it :D
This is so straight to the point it's amazing. Thank you for making such great boxing lessons in youtube.
No worries
You're absoultely the best, Tony. Love your videos, love your training. I've been learning so much and see results when I train in the gym! Thank you
Thanks a lot for this video! I'm laying here in bed with massive bruises from getting smashed by a pro at my gym (don't worry, coach is talking to him about lightening up). I definitely make all of these mistakes lol
Is that as motivation to get better so it may never happen again
Sounds like your coach is the problem, you shouldn't be sparring a pro.

@@HuwPewPew lol yeah ive been in the situation where the only thing ive learnt some someone good is to not hit them too hard when sparring
Tony Sir. One thing separates you from others is that - Your videos are so noob friendly. They help alot. 💪
I'm guilty of trying to catch too many shots (with my right hand in front of my chin) without any head movement or footwork.
Yesterday was my first sparring session with a pro. So much of this is relevant lol. Looking forward to seeing what my coach has me drill next. Def keeping these in mind for open gym drills

Pay attention children, this dude knows his stuff.
Tony can you please do more vids on Muhammad Ali technique and defence etc
I have realized I was boxing like if I was a fucking nail
Great boxing tips and tricks 🥊
forget about you were an olympic boxer, that does count of course but cant get close to your humanity..
Tony , can you make a video about when on offense and they are hitting you when your trying to throw your combo what to do . I get stuck in sparing a lot trying to throw a combo and and they stop my combination or my flow but attacking with their own combinations

Early
Nice!
Tony I want to ask you something?
Awesome Tony thank you , another awesome video
o obstaculo de todo hetero são os primeiros 20 segundos desse video
I stop moving on my feet when I get tired, and my defense worsen
Good tips. My kids take kick box classes. And I am allowed to use the facilities solo. You are my coach now.
I have mma gloves and 16 oz gloves. Could you do one about pros and cons etc.
about what mate?
How about this? th-cam.com/video/JJld399UwnE/w-d-xo.html -- do you like it?
Rocky balboa could have used this video
Ok...thnx for the details tony.
Thanks
More to come mate 👊
Hey tony. Your videos have been very helpful for me while trying to get better at boxing. But I have one question, how can you break someone’s defense if they have their hand up high in a defensive kind of block?
Pivot and attack round there guard. Also body shots to make them drop there hands to cover their body
I hate to say it. But this should not be free.
Shoulder rolls don’t work against mighty Mackems we all know this…
Haha
👍
👊
Love the no intro, just getting into it
Hey Tony, I have been training for a while and I want to compete but my parents are worried for my health
