    One of the great things about having an old trainer (60 or something, not that old) is being taught things like this.

    My trainer is the same too. He's a really smart, technical guy.

    yep. except in JKD the defending guy would be southpaw so it alters things a little if they are orthodox, in terms of stepping to your left walks you in to their rear hand in your are orthodox. Stepping to our right is slower. One thing we just to do to make the move quicker would be to fall in to the step. Actually my favourite thing with the jab is to shot your own over the forearm of your opponent. Effectively a parry & hit..the essence of jkd.

    Nice find.

    I've never heard of it. It sounds like a name of a dance move, perhaps you could explain it.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    Its a draw and Step and move again little number. Makes everything safe whether long or short distance, dont see it much now. Try and put an example of it up must have one somewhere .

    A great move,I picked it up watching the buddy mcgirt-simon brown fight,buddy slipped the jab and dug a beautiful right uppercut to the body,if any of u have the chance watch that fight,buddy gave simon a boxing lesson,even dropped him late,lennox lewis did it nicley too in the 1st rahman fight,a lot of guys are scared to throw it the timing has to be perfect

    ah, where have all the draws gone. Feints yes but draws seem much less common...maybe I'm watching the wrong fights.

    Anyone have any particular fighters/fights they can suggest for feints or draws?
