Hi Tony, I’m 42 and 13 weeks into boxing. Sparring and training 3 hours every Sunday with ex preofessional welterweight. You and him are well aligned in coaching approach so I find your videos fit nicely. I’m mainly working on my jab so far. I’ve got the bug. I can’t learn enough now. Working on my fitness all the time and I’m coming on with my technique… so much to learn… day at a time. Thanks again for really clear visuals and verbals.
40 myself and am loving the fitness and technique aspects of boxing. I was always a wrestler and never got into it myself but always did love watching great matches Great to hear. I’m 3 days in lol
Ah I'm coming back into boxing at 35 and I was wondering how I'd fare with it. No offense but since you're a bit older and still gettin' it in that gives me hope
I know you don't know me but you've been my boxing coach for a couple of years now. I've learned so much from just watching you're very detailed videos. People around me are impressed on how much I've learned, and some people are convinced that I had a lot of formal training. The best part is the amount of confidence in myself that I have gained. Thank you, sir! 🙏
Thank you for creating this video equally putting emphasis on the footwork. I am a 50 year old woman who had a lumbar injury almost a year ago. I am positive boxing will help me with my full smooth recovery. Accident happened June 2023. Thank you!!!
I’m 42 and I’ve just got into kickboxing. Yes, I know it’s not just boxing. I’ve been loving videos like this because the techniques transfer. My biggest struggle is footwork. I struggle with balance due to being an amputee. Which is also why I’ve been doing so much research on striking. I’ve found a few videos pertaining to movement that I’ve found helpful, but it’s been a fun struggle trying to figure it out. I’ve found all the videos from this channel very helpful so far.
I love watching these videos! I've gone in and out of boxing for years so its always good to see someone patiently going over the basics so i can find flaws in my own techniques
Thanks, Tony, for all your videos. Not only I learn a lot of your videos but you are also able to motivate me to try harder. I am just boxing at home on a heavy bag, double ended bag and speed bag without a coach - up to now. From now on you are my coach. All your videos are very helpful and I love watching them. 👍🥊
Great to hear mate! Keep it up... If u don’t mind, could u please share this vid on ya social media please. Will really help me out :) All good if not 👊🏻
Even though I’ve seen this video several times I still find the “feint..pivot hook” gag so funny. We’ll delivered sir. Your comedy timing is as good as your punch timing clearly 🤣
As a beginner, this is exactly the kind of technical video I was looking for. Logical & practical explanation with great video representation. Thanks! Instant follow!!
I'm one of those who loves boxing but there isn't a boxing gym near me but i practice all the stuff u teach even tho i don't have a heavy bag and i'm really enjoying it thank you so much!
Do you got a question about the Basic Punches in Boxing? Let me know 👇 👇 Watch Next: How to Pivot Hook on the Heavy Bag: th-cam.com/video/rc6C5boxcwk/w-d-xo.html
First off your Legend and I love your Channel I have a punching bag that weighs in about 300 and change , solid sand is that too much , even though i have the power to practice properly
Excellent breakdown. Definitely going to refer our beginner students to this video to give them an idea of what punches we'll primarily be working on over the course of our classes. =) Regarding the Bolo punch, I like to explain it as an "uppercut to the body". Strictly speaking this is nonsense (because the punch doesn't go very far up), but the bio-mechanical execution is very similar to a rear uppercut.
Great vid. Explains the basics, fast enough to keep attention, intresting and informative without going too far in detail. Best basics I've seen in a while
Hey Tony, of the 8 advanced uppercuts what's the difference between 2. "Rear Uppercut" and 3. "Uppercut with Rear Hand", was there a mistake? or is 3. specifically the different ranges of 2.?
I love your videos Tony. I have been a fan of boxing for some time but too scared to commit to getting coaching or even practising in the gym. All of your technique videos help me heaps. My shadow and I have been in 100s of bouts so far. I think I am winning ;). Thanks again
I'm so glad you said break it down 5 different types of punches you have your Jab your cross your hook your uppercut and you have a overhand off the top my head that's the punches I'm thinking because the cross is a straight punch overhand can find its way over your opponent's hand or glove
Hey mate,good job as always.I have stopped traning boxing from quite some time due to other priorities,but you have returned my spark for practising the sweet science again.God bless you,mate !
I love watching your videos and focusing on every detail you mention...your videos are very helpful to remember the instructions to follow Thanks a lot
Great coaching as always! In addition to shadow boxing and a heavy bag, the only other thing for home training is a full length mirror. Learn a lot from a mirror and it doesn’t lie to you.
GREAT tutorial, champ!!!! ESPECIALLY about the transfer of weight!!!! At Broadway Boxing in South Central, Los Angeles, Vernon Fletcher taught me this well!!!! That was back in the late 90’s!!!!
Just wanted to thank you Tony for what you doing here. Amazing job. The way you teaching and mastering boxing from the basics. Thank you so much for sharing your boxing knowledge. It is a privilege to get lessons from you for free anytime anywhere in the world. It is obvious you love this sport Just wanted to thank. Excuse everyone my grammar
Found this channel today I love it it’s so informative and I feel like after a few months I’ll feel a lot more confident with self defence thank you sir from a young lad who’s trying to get a bit fitter
Thank you, mate. A lot of additional material to practice. I'm old starter, 36yo, and your videos really helping me with understandings and ideas. Thank you, Tony, from Tony :)
Thank you for getting back to posting about boxing again. I never want to leave a negative comment but I all those self defense videos had me worried for a bit.
I’m kinda just using boxing as exercise, I don’t really plan on fighting, but knowing hip and foot movement combined with proper punches makes for a great workout
Hi Tony, I've been following your channel for some time now and, by far, you produce the best content on these topics on TH-cam -- you do such a good job of communicating in a way that is technical but practical that I really appreciate. I was wondering if i could get your thoughts (and perhaps, can you do a video) on how to manage training in order to suit your strengths and goals -- strength vs. agility vs. endurance. Acknowledging that they're all important in boxing and fighting, sometimes you have to put emphasis on one rather than the other, depending on your physical attributes (eg. size, weight, height, reach, etc.), what you're training for (eg. boxing vs. self defense), and economics (time, resources, space to train). What would you suggest would be the way to make those decisions on what to emphasize and perhaps provide calisthenic exercises (or at least, exercises that do not require extensive/expensive equipment) to improve those aspects.
U Sir R in that small group of Coaches who become True Teacher's 👍. Brilliant delivery Mr Tony . Sticks in Ur brain like porridge sticks to Ur ribs . Nothing but effective. Thanku Sir .
Beginner here…I always finish my boxing classes and come home watch your videos to perfect the technique and study more ❤ that bolo punch is the worst thing that can happen to someone 😂😂 takes the breath out of your whole body
I do my 1,2,3,4 training a bit different. I teach to take a tiny step with the lead foot and the jab with the foot and punch meeting at the same time. With the second punch I do not teach to get on your toes yet but to slid the back foot back to your base stance. This is for absolute maximum speed with fast quick foot movement and punches. Then comes the third punch being the hook and this punch comes from your big toe, your hips, your waste, your shoulder and most importantly you turn your hand over, and then you get up on your toes for the 4th punch and hit hard. The 1, 2 is just a set up for the 3, 4. If your throwing a hook to the body then the form your showing is good but if your throwing it to the head you need to turn it over. So the top of your hand should be at the top. Just pointing that out.
Tony.... Do you teach to twist the straight punch Only until the front knuckles are pretty much completely horizontal.... Or do you teach to pop a little more twist so the straight punch hand twists past horizontal and the front knuckle ends up on a slightly downward dejectory ??? Like a final little bit of twist on impact??
I come from a taekwondo background long before MMA was even heard of by most in the United States. I met a boxing coach home has become my friend from professional circles and I'm looking forward to learn more about boxing. done nothing but watch it as a sport since watching Spinks' famous fights in the 1980s. now that I'm older and several tough shoulder surgeries to work through, I'm looking to challenge myself with boxing. any tips on training speed? I've done weight training pushing the iron as fast as I can on someone's crazy advice and it seems to help.
Hi Tony. (Or any of you guys) What bag do you recommend for a very beginner? We have No where to hang a bag. It would have to be self standing of some sorts. Thanks for your time and info!!!!
Hey Tony! Which hand should be your jabbing hand? Your dominant? I’m right handed, so does that mean jab with my right? Just started watching these as instructional videos for heavybag workouts and love it!!
How straight should your arm be when it hits the bag for jab and cross? When I hit the bag it’s about 170-180 degrees. I hurt my bicep last year by overextending so maybe now I’m overprotecting myself.
I’m focusing on perfecting the left hook to the body. Being right handed, the left hook punch is awkward to throw. Thank you for all you do for us who are not pros like you!!

What kind of heavy bag or double end bag (considering the bottom end is used to tie it down) is that?
Hi, thanks for your videos. You say to be relaxed. However, do you tense your arm when you hit?
I do my 1,2,3,4 training a bit different. I teach to take a tiny step with the lead foot and the jab with the foot and punch meeting at the same time. With the second punch I do not teach to get on your toes yet but to slid the back foot back to your base stance. This is for absolute maximum speed with fast quick foot movement and punches.

Like a final little bit of twist on impact??
Learned a lot thank you. One question why are the hooks low and not higher when you are hitting the bag?
What if you are sparring with someone shorter how do you use head movement to maneuver around him or do you just use foot work
The most completes tutorials ever made, they fix all my doubt, thank you champ💪❤️
Great video mate.

Hi Tony, how to improve the problem of telegraphing. It make me easy to catch by the opponents.
How straight should your arm be when it hits the bag for jab and cross? When I hit the bag it’s about 170-180 degrees. I hurt my bicep last year by overextending so maybe now I’m overprotecting myself.
