It really happens. I hit the punching bag getting back to the guard's hand, defending and even dodging, but when it's sparring I've a certain insecurity. It's amazing how you really know about the beginners problems!!

“When you’re boxing,
The hardest thing to do is think and box..”
Absolutely true 💯

You don’t ramble at all. Your knowledge and videos are tip top. You’ve broken this science down to the point that you are a great teacher.

I work at a high school. I'm an educator. I got the green light to start a boxing club. No sparring, however teaching strategies like these is what I am looking for. I appreciate your hard work and time my good man!

[youngsvideos]

Omg! This is the best explanation of what you should be thinking and doing in the ring. Nobody teaches these important tips. This is next level boxing and I am absorbing it like a sponge! Thank you JT for shining a light on this topic. Your enthusiasm for teaching boxing is tempting me to get back in the ring. Keep ‘them coming!

I'm a beginner and I was having problems landing punches and fear of being hit I didn't even realize that my feet were too far from my opponent and my coach never warned me or taught me that either, one of the best advice I've ever had I'll apply in the next class and fall inside thanks, I hope more videos for beginners, thanks from Brazil

I just started boxing on Saturday. I've never even been in a fight before, but thought boxing would be pretty fun. Thank you for uploading vidoes because I literally have no idea what to do but you explain things clearly

Coach...you're great. N please never stop rambling... it's Gold for everyone who really wants to learn.

This is amazing. Your articulation of distancing and getting "into range" gave me that little lightbulb moment where everything clicks. Thanks a lot for putting this out there!

[edwardchatterton]

Excellent demonstration & breakdown of moves to close the distance thank you coach Eddie Chatterton Uk

Great content, I’ve just recently started sparring again and forgot about the nervous energy before getting in the ring.
A lot of the apprehension comes more from the fear of being hit rather than the actual hit itself.
Once you accept that getting hit is just a matter of ‘when’ rather than ‘if’ it’s easier to settle in and get in a rhythm.
Breath, breathing and more breathing is also a great tip, it’s hard to let your hands go when your breathing out your arse 😂

[urgreatestnightmare]

Thank you. I had a really hard time sparring with my sparring partners will surely apply this. Appreciate it.❤👊

[masonguillory]

One of, if not THE best instructional guide on distance, mindset, and movement that I have seen from any coach, youtube or otherwise. Not just teaching technicality but also strategy. This man knows the boxing game.

[thehighcommunity]

Thank-you for this one. I spar at an MMA gym during kickboxing class. So it's a bit different from boxing. This still pertains to me because it's all so new to me. I hesitate to really throw.

[prvtthd]

I often sing "let it go" from Frozen while sparring. It really helps me relax and let my hands go.

[MrSummerblade]

Someone getting to the science part of the ‘sweet science’. Thinking, striking, absorbing hits, moving and evading, all at the same time. Chess with pain. Thanks coach 🙏

[MineVex]

Just realized I've been watching your stuff while doing drills for so long that I haven't actually sat down and watched something that wasn't workout-related. And didn't know I hadn't subbed. Fixed that. can't believe it took me this long.

[maniqa]

Exactly what I've been looking for since started my sparrings!
