    Default Tricks of the Trade

    Boxing can be magical when a skilled fighter beats up a bum.

    But there is a trick to it. I have found some in my sprring sessions.

    1. Snap back, you move ur body backwards to avoid a hit.

    2. Bob/weave, preety easy to understand.

    3. Slip, you just dodge the hit with the move of your head.

    4. Sidestep, you move sideways to avoid a hit.

    5. circle your opponant, also easy to understand.

    6. Feinting to panic the fighter and get an opening.

    7. Attacking in combinations.

    8. Locking the opponants arm and attacking.

    These are what I gathered from my experience in gym sparring and watching
    ATG's. When you know the fighters STYLE then its simply science, not magical,
    not superhuman i.e. force of nature.

    Mike Tyson's early trick was to bob under the attacks and come up with his
    fast combinations.

    Naseem Hammed would use reflexes to avoid getting hit and pound them with
    KO power punches from wither hand.

    Muhammad Ali would dance around the ring and throw jabs and 1 2's.

    Rocky Marciano would crouch to get in and start punching away.

    What have you gathered about boxing SKILL from your experience?

    I had a good trick when I worked as a bouncer
    #1) outweight the guy by 100 pounds
    #2) be all muscle
    #3) use your left hand to "cup" the guy around the back of the head and pull him forward
    #4) when he tries to pull back and lifts his head, step forward and drive your right elbow into his face AS HARD AS YOU CAN.
    #5) since he ain't getting up for a while....take his girlfreind home and plow her like the filthy skank she is. He already primed her with 15 drinks!

    Just to clarify.. i only ever whacked a guy out if he had it coming..
    usually had slapped a waitress,tried to steal money off her tray.
    Poured beer on the entertainment or ladies
    Picking fights with customers who needed help etc.

    Right - off the topic of bouncing and back to boxing -

    You listed tying up an opponents arms and punching as a technique which i believe but just to clarify this for myself is this specific to pro boxing only?

    I'd also list timing a straight punch to defend against an incoming hook or overhand while stepping back,

    or moving in as they move in but be sure to land it just before the hook would have landed - so they put their weight into you punch and you don't get hit.

    Any time you can use your opponents weight against them is good - especially if you are a midget like me.

    Ya mos def steppin in with a right straight is a great way to avoid a left hook....
