not keeping chin tucked when sparring?

If your body is angled properly in your stance, your chin will be behind your shoulder. If you rotate your shoulders when you punch, your chin will always be behind a shoulder.
If you are square to your opponent and keep your chin tucked it will make it hard to breath.

 

Scrap you are so knowledgeable but you are such a ****ing cocktease

 

Dont mean to be, just trying to direct Guys in the right direction.

 

I'm a basement boxer, but I've been employing the technique of keeping a tennis ball under my chin to keep it in proper position. What do you think of this method?

 

Big fan of it, add a couple of Neck stretches, Plus a few Shoulder Mobalising Stretches, youre on a Winner. :good

 

can you give me some good examples of these scrap?
thanks in advance

 

A few start at 10 mins . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEOYMP7QnDI

 

:salute: this man

 

anybody got a pic or a video to show the difference between chin tucked vs the other way?

 

ALWAYS keep your chin in

 

A routine that Helps, keep the chin straight with Neck. Hold for 15 secs 1st 3 days on the Hours when awake. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khfRxOyycQE

 

Plus its great for stopping Headaches.

 

Scrap keeping chin down, in or tucked is basically the same thing, the tennis ball on the chin was good enough for Hopkins should be good for anybody. Why confuse the issue, it is a good idea, teaching a guy to protect his chin. I would like to hear the ten reasons why you shouldn't.
I have never seen a fighter drop his chin so much that he looked through his eyebrows.
Scrap no offense would like to know who you trained that was perfect in every way. Keeping chin down, tucked in or whatever is a step in the right direction no matter how it's taught, it has the fighter thinking about defense.
Seriously do you make this stuff up

"Chin down more than 15%, theres a problem. Which is, it restricts the Diaphragm from working by 50% Starving the Eyes of there predominant Fuel source Oxygen, not to mention the rest that needs it"

cos I have never run across any of what you are saying, maybe cos they explain things differently I dont know which.

Nothing in life is so precise, 15% or 50% and that is also life:rofl

 

We must work in a different circle, I feel. If you work on good Biomechanics I Feel you have a better chance, in Sports. Results I have had seems to Back Up the theory, Ball under Chin is a good way to implement it, but awkward to use when Sparring. Chin down stops everything from working as it should. Thats from the Former Head lecturer at Harvard no less. .

 

From the Harvard lecturer, you say then he knows what he knows but as far as boxing he dont know squat. I could be wrong but can you point out who is perfectly aligned biomechanically. It's hard enough to tell a guy to jab, nevermind reminding him in a fight "Chicken stretch, chicken stretch!!!"

I am beginning to think the UK is more advanced in the use of biomechanic's. But for the life of me can't figure out how you can be perfect in your biomechanics and be a good fighter. Cos I have moved in different circles and have yet to see anybody stress this so much and to the degree that you do. Is there anybody you would recommend that I talk to about biomechanics on this side of the Atlantic, besides that Harvard guy?
Guess I might be misreading this "Ball under Chin is a good way to implement it, but awkward to use when Sparring.", are you being serious in saying that, I have yet to see a guy sparring with a ball under his chin, is this a UK thing? I am not trying to be a wiseass here. I deal primarily with Mexican fighters and their training empathsizes offense and power, they truly believe that the best defense is a good offense. I see that we will have a good example of that in the upcoming Jamie McDonnell - Julio Ceja fight. Should be a good fight style wise, is McDonnell a typical British boxer? Cos Ceja fights like a Mexican puncher, much offense and power shots.
Is the chin down a thing in your circle? Cos I haven't seen anybody box with his chin down, as in chin pasted to the chest. Scrapper you seem to be knowledgable but dont know if you are serious on some of the stuff you claim, or maybe it's cos I am misunderstanding what you are getting at.
I am so confused.
