Win A Street Fight With This Drill (Master This!)

One of the worst mistakes you can make in your training (boxing, mma, jeet kune do, etc.) is making a habit of not mixing defense in with your offense. It can be one of those things that is simple to incorporate, but difficult to do with speed and skill. In this video, Sifu Jason with Greenville Academy of Martial Arts (The Academy) shows you a great drill that will help you build a dangerous defense that no one would want to run into in a street fight.

3 simple moves (jab, cross, slip) and so many variations of combining it. It's really cool

[simoneriksson]

You are really good at puting together simple and useful drills, I find great value in your videos :)

[cehinton]

You are so fast with your slips. (And yes, I'm jealous) . I usually don't slip right following my cross, but roll to the left, slip under, and step out to the right. But you've inspired me to add that right slip into my repertoire. Appreciate your great videos, Sifu.

Sifu jason, I have watched this video many times, your information and detail is so valuable, I wish other jkd teachers were so giving, in the uk, we have lockdown, so classes are out, and with so many lazy teachers, I just want to say thankyou, GOD bless you and keep up the great work

"That's why there's more knockouts in MMA than there is in boxing."

I remember the match between MMA fighter Connor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather, boxing champ, under boxing rules. McGregor came out strong and scored some solid hits early, but in the end was completely outclassed by Mayweather. McGregor's stance was too wide to maintain for 12-15 rounds, and he didn't have the same sense of stick-and-move, or the proficiency of "slipping" as demonstrated by Sifu Jason here. Mayweather's stance and footwork were more compact, more controlled, and he was much harder to hit solidly. Especially toward the end, when McGregor was tiring out and getting sloppy while Mayweather was hitting his stride.

The lesson isn't necessarily that boxing wins street fights, although it could. It's that boxing tactics like compact stances and slipping punches have value, and that gleaning them and incorporating them into your own style can't hurt, and might keep you from getting hurt. Which is the whole point of self-defense. :)

Great lesson. Very useful info. I have a heavy bag in my garage and work out on a lot and you're right, I DO lean forward too much when I punch. No wonder I have so much trouble with the "Bob & Weave".

Most realistic wing chun guy out there .

I started boxing 3 months ago and watched many videos on YouTube but they were all not good enough and they lacked the technical details like in these videos here it explains exactly what I missed and what I wanted to know as a beginner boxer. I love this channel

[DarkCrusader]

Nice work Sifu Jason, practical and good advice. Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏾😎

[ilnodon]

Excellent for Solo Training, which I am all about these days. Great! Thanks for the lesson!

[lyricrogers]

Wow the speed at the start was mind blowing

[Outrider]

Dude, you're one of the reasons why I'm going to enroll in a Wing Chun school after this whole mess is over (I'm already learning the forms online).

[shieldfaith]

As far as training your hands to return after a punch, a drill/exercise I was taught was to wrap just the ends of a hand wrap on your hands (one end on either hand using a single hand wrap). The rest is will be on back of your neck and extended along your arms. You will want to have just enough to be able to punch. The idea is that as you punch the wrap will pull your other arm to where it can properly cover you. So it will create muscle memory.

[harlanhair]

Very good Jason! Always learn lots from you😀

[georgegoodyear]

Informative and inspiring. I’ll start training right away.

[irkenempire]

I can get with this...a lot. I like how you don't lean on trapping or chi sao concepts so hard even though your background is WC. I've been studying Karate nearly my whole life and as you said in the last vid I watched of yours, been accused of being some kind of "mutt" because my teacher studied Taekwondo and Jiu-jitsu.

[miguelalthann]

I have not seen it but I already liked it. You are the best online sifu

[chrisrose]

Thank You JASON! All good brother. I am grateful for the sharing of knowledge. PEACE

[mohammadshoaib]

Great stuff Sifu Jason.. i found you a grate teacher based on a realistic tqneeqs ..

[benjaminpujols]

Thanks I appreciate that I will do my best because I am not very active as I used to be and incidentally you reminded me of Mike Tyson bobbing and weaving like that you got some pretty good moves
