What are the best way to defend body-shot against a opponent is it best to counter punch them or block ?
If you block by lowering your hands to your rib cage, there’s an excellent chance they won’t even bother throwing to the body
Catch them on the elbows If you do it right it actually is painful for the thrower And then as soon as you catch it..... Counter
Keep distance Learn to be aggressive going backwards Reset your opponent Move away from oppoments power hand Learn to counter to discourage your opponent from attacking Keep lead foot far in front, lower your centre of gravity and learn to get your own uppercuts in
That is very true, but my post was just meant to be a joke. I should’ve worded it better. If you just keep your hands down around your midsection, they’ll only punch you in your ****ing face and body shots won’t be an issue
You need to learn how to roll and turn with the punches; that way they wrap around you and you aren't taking full impact when you block them. And moving your weight like that sets up your counters
What a lot of guys do is lay on the ropes and tighten up and they can absorb more in that way, yet they cannot get leverage back.
