    Slipping would generally be the best thing to do, as it would leave the opponent off balance and leave you in perfect position to counter with a variety of shots, from hook to the body to uppercut to straight right after stepping out, etc.

    You don't slip a hook, you roll one gay dude.

    Depends on what your definition is. Rolling generally implies that you'd roll it off or deflect it, whereas slipping implies that you'd make the punch miss altogether. Slipping under a hook leaves you in a much better position to counter, unless you're using a Philly Shell, in which case you could roll a punch off and be in perfect position to counter with an uppercut or straight of your own.

    ******.

    Nah, ya dumbass.

    Slipping is what you do when someone throws a ****in jab or a straight.

    Ducking and rolling is what you do when someone throws a hook.

    Oh yeah, you don't know **** about boxing. My bad.

    It's called ROLLING UNDER.

    How the **** you slip a hook by moving your head to the side? Explain that ****.

    you know, being an angry little **** and calling people ***s and dumbasses and **** like that's not gonna solve a goddamn thing. chill out and try offering real advice or stick to your stupid religious threads in the general room.

    quarter step back and then 1-2

    if your a bit too close it's time to do some dempsey impressions, bob and weave with a stiff jab when he is open.

    i like moving to my left becuase the right hand is so far away and the left hook is too close to really laucnha punch.

    getting close and landing smaller, finer hooks is also a choice


    wide punches are typical of street fighters trying to do what is comon usage. if you swarm him as well you can make your punches toll far more effectivly.

    if a hook is dramaticly wide i would duck it and follow up with a counter left either body or head which ever is more voulnerable

    Slipping under a hook is rolling it. Sorry to bring such an old thread up.
     
  10. :rofl this thread was 2 years ago...


    • Slipping is to move your head in a lateral angle. Left or Right movement...
    • Ducking/Bobbing is moving your head in an up an down movement...
    • And Rolling is a way of catching the incoming punch on your guard 'rolling' off the momentum off into another direction.
    And naturally a duck is more appropriate than a slip.
