The boxing guard is designed to protect the head and body, so make sure you don't lose it's integrity when the punches start flying! Here is a tutorial showing how to properly block punches to the body in boxing, or MMA -- using your elbows and forearms. And of course, effective counters to the body shots!

This video couldn’t of come at a better time thanks Shane. I have just started doing Muay Thai thanks to your vids and in my first sparring session I found myself dropping my hands every body jab or body hook I was taking and I got tagged on the nose. This will help greatly for my next sparring session. Thanks and keep up the good content :D

I've been doing martial arts for roughly 6-7 months now (MMA, BJJ and kickboxing) and I have learned so many great tips (big and small ones) from your channel so far! Keep up the awesome vids man :D

Thanks guys, had my first spar in boxing today. Was doing good until he caught me with a good body shot that winded me fast. My trainer never taught how to block body shots before putting me in the ring.

I’m 6’7” and tonight I was getting hit in the body. Can’t wait to use these blocking techniques tomorrow. They was telling me to keep my guard tighter and just watching this video gives me a way better visual of what I need to do. Thank you so much!

How can I fight someone who is super quick and always manages to sweep me. I don’t even know how he can sweep me, he just does it out of nowhere embarrassing me

After take a hard liver shot by someone with about 60 lb weight advantage I got really good at blocking body shots... It's all I focused on for a while.
Thanks for the video
