What i wanted to say is this: its bad to watch as a beginer clips which are promoting bad habits and technique while misleading on the positioning!

[iceman]

which bad habits? there is a gem in here i rarely see talked about, that is keep the eyes on the opponent. helps keep chin in the shoulder

Sorry ICEMAN, but i can't find my self a place when i see how someone is destroying something that i love! This type of missinformation for me is even warse than counterinteligence! In counterinteligence you are laying for some REASON. Here this man is laying because of IGNORANCE! For me both are sins! The sport of boxing is full of "trainenrs" who are laying the kids. The warse part of it is not that they want to take the money from the kids. The warse is that they don't care about what they are doing! This leads to degradation not only of the sport, who we so much love, but of the socaiaty in which we are living! Because of this ceap missinformation we turn ourselfs in ignorant, stuped, NON THINKING CONSUMERS. I don't know how many sins i have sayed till now, but i know one thing. I don't want my kids to grow that way and i am going to make all possible to change it!

?? now ya lost me. i hear what you are saying, but i asked what you didn't like, as in your critiscism so i can learn from you? cause i may be wrong but i do like most of what i saw...so please tell me so i can learn.

First there is reasons to learn the basics first in every single sport! If you have them then everything will go much smoother. You are going to generate power with your shots, be solid in your defence and don't go fast out of gas. Second the bad habits are so much that i don't know from where to start. Lets say throwing left hook on some one going backwards is not the brightest idea. Just go in the chanel of the guy and see his films. They speak for themselves. If your oponent is going backwards the corect way not only you are going to miss but you put yourself in so bad position to be countered. Just watch the amatiors there and then switch to the "profis"... Than the idea of flayering the elbows... See kimbo is new in the sport. He is going to copy this "trainer". Then he will watch some "profi" making the same mistakes. Then he is going to try them and get his head off. And why? Because someone has told some bullsh^^ on the internet not giving a sh&& about Kimbo.

Sorry while i was writting the first replay i havent seen yours..

[iceman]

hmm, depending on the movement i throw a hook at a guy moving backwards, mainly to keep him going that way. as for the elbow, i also do tend to move it as it seems to fit the situation. and like i said i see most people look past the body and expose the side of their head. also people tend to get the punch in front of the body not following...those are my points. i agree there are things i don't like but i try a lot and decide what works from the point of does it score. chasing hooks or bounding hooks i don't like. seen them work but not a huge fan
