the hook. Thoughts?
[youtube=425,350]Odj4ATUPh9w[/youtube]
Sorry Von My old mate, Thats the worst demonstration of a hook Ive ever seen. The fundamentles are completely wrong.
Agreed. cc. That's what happens when you let a martial arts guy try to come across as a boxer. click the window to view the feedback he has.
Kids, There's no such thing as a right hook!!!
plus the thing he says about knuckles... just sad. ::**
kids believe twats like this guy. and they'll even pay for his instruction!!
Wheres the window
just single click right on the movie itself.
that was disgusting >:mad
This guy is a jerkoff who will end up getting someone hurt. He is the equivalent of those two idiots who have that boxing for real show on you tube. All about the wrong thing. I even sent him an e-mail telling him so. Shit like that gets on my last nerve.
lol. tell us how you REALLY feel, Daxx! ;D
I was walking down the street about 5 years ago and walked past a karate dojo. Thought of joining out of boredom and a desire to learn self D. So glad I didn't. It's frightening to think of all the injustices benig done to poor suckers looking for something through martial arts.
Ever watch a karate tourney? The fights end up looking like a very crude boxing match with a few crappy kicks mixed in.
Ya geeez,
Don't sugar coat it ....
Wish I could find guys like that to fight he hee he...
How many times could you tag him by the time he gets ready
to actually finish getting ready to get ready to try to hit you....
I also like the way he looks like he likes to close his eyes in
the wind up, that's a neat trick.
;D
Could he be any more square on?
I wish I could just eliminate ignorant people/money milking scumbags from the fitness industry... He's getting paid to lie to people... not over any old crap though... fitness and self defense. Couldn't get any worse.
If I know as little as him I wouldn't be were he is... because I just couldn't allow myself to talk that crap knowing I was clueless... or delude myself into thinking I have anything approaching a clue.
What do southpaws throw then? :PQuote:

he's trying to hook infront of himself, turning his shoulders into the shot... from a fecking square stance... how the hell can you pull that off.
I'd like to know what difference having your fist upright and flat is in terms of which knuckles are going to hit... either way... neither way is going to prevent you from missing and catching the guy with your two small knuckles... but up right is just retarded... you loose all the power at your shoulder.
he'd have more success with that huge looper he demonstrates at the start. He's jsut a first class idiot who hasn't got a clue.

looks like he's trying to throw a elbow or something ;D
yuh huh. there's a right hook button combination on the rocky video games for orthodox fighters. :PQuote:

yeah, you could say that, or a looping right. throwing a right hook like that guy is doing will never land. unless you've got a guy on the ropes and/or are inside. then you might sneak it in, but generally the only thing it works on is the bag.
von cause there is such a thing as a right hook and it can be landed as a counter to the jab
coming over the top isn't the same as a right hook. but if can video it for me then i'll believe ya. ;)
an overhand right is near enuff a straight punch but anything over around 25 degrees bend in the arm is a hook so a right hook as a counter to the jab is highly possible, tbh it works best with a sidestep
25degrees? Please provide a reference. 8)
someone said it on here scrap or some one but look at this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_(boxing)
note the words right hook
I didn't see anything that had "right" and "hook" side by side.
A right hook does exist. That video is not what i have in mind but there is definitely such a thing as a right hook for an orthodox fighter.
cool. good luck with it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_%28boxing%29
thats the proper link dunno why the other one didnt work
If your talking about it it exists
Of course it exists... it may not be thrown like the left hook but it's a name for that punch... if you have trouble telling the difference between it and a straight right...
Wel... I guess your right isn't too straight... ;)
overhand right. not right hook. I'll fight this 'till death. ;D
Overhand right and right hook are two different things.
yes. one exists and one doesn't.
ok then what's your take on the existance of the 45er?
