the boxing types make fighting seem complicated with all the dance moves and tricky punching back tricks


throw your first at the dudes head and try to break it in half

Punching is all in the hips. It doesn't matter if you're doing boxing, muay-thai, karate, or whatever.

Once you get the timing of transferring the energy from your hips to your fist down - you'll know it.

Hips move, then the punch comes. It's not robotic though; it has to be one fluid motion.

You can also try to scoot forward at the moment of impact for even more weight added behind the punch.

The better you get at it, the less you have to move your arm.

Think of it as punching with your body vs. punching with your arm.

Otherwise you're just throwing an arm punch/lariat that won't do any damage unless you weigh 240+.

I never really got into fights except when I was younger but when I try to hit the punching bag I suck really bad

the problem with most people is that they are afraid of the natural concequences, a scumbag who has been to prison and has no future has nothing to loose and will of course be in an advantage when in a fight, the ordinary people like you and me who have wifes and children always think, what will happen if I punch him will I go to prison what happens if he falls and I kill him etc etc.

I bet your "wife" punches you all the time and you're too scared to do anything.

Just carry mace then.

That's the reason bounty hunters often carry mace: They don't want to risk seriously injuring someone and get in trouble themselves.

Problem solved.

ah don't worry I have been in plenty fights and have gotten the shit kicked out of me on a lot of occasion, when you're really in a fight and scared to death you just do what you have to do, some run and if you cannot than you kick scratch and bite, it doesn;t matter as long as you survive.
No need to "learn" how to fight you forget it anyways when you;re in a fight

That's the major mistake most people make when punching.
Use a target (a punching bag or something) so you can gauge your progress, based on the estimated impact damage.
Muscle memory will kick in, and it will become a natural movement if you keep practicing it.

Ah...I didn't know you're in Ireland. I understand your predicament though.
I'd say it's always better to err on the side of caution.

When I was doing kyokushin.
All of my teachers taught me that you must punch using feet-waist.
Boxerdo that same. Thats why they look like dancing.

And one more thing,Kyokushin talk about this a lot but boxing dont.

The fist. Your fist should be formed complete. So you must push up with your fist.
If you fight with grove, its ok. But on the street, your enemy wont wait until you wear a pair of groves.
So, your fist should be complete. And try to hit the sand back with groves basicaly, but you must hit it with your bare fist to train your fist sometime.

Oh,,when you punch jab and straight,always trying to stay your elbow closed for the guard. Many people do that with their elbow opened, so they receive those punchs of their opponent easily.

^ Good advice; however, he should just get the basic mechanics of punching down before worrying about flourishes.

I wish Ron would have made some Getbig.com t-shirt, people would never even try to mess with me (well they don't anyway  ;D)

my older brother always gets into fights at nightclubs and he is a tall skinny dude, but I think I could beat his ass pretty easily. we mess around some times and he is so tall that he kicks me from far away before I can get close  ;D

I look 5'5 in that pic !!!  :o

punching power also comes from the legs, the pivoting of the feet so your hook or straight right has the full bodyweight.

Stavious, if you want to learn to punch just join your nearest boxing gym. Thats the fastest way and you will learn how to punch correctly

Punch is A LOT technique.

Be patient and get a coach to show you gow to do it. Power then comes.

A big haymaker will knock someone out if connects properly. But learn to throw correctly then work on power and you will be devastating.

You can learn the technique in seriously an hour...though working on power speed combos etc will take ages.

Exactly, when a boxer teach me how to punch in the gym,I always remeber that how my grand father hit a golf ball waaaaaaaaay more far away than me.
Its a whole body technic. Without it, it doesnt matter no matter how much muscle you carry.

Can't believe it was'nt mentioned, but inorder to not break your hand make sure to focus the punch between the first 2 knuckles, shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line, so punch in a straight line and get your bodyweight behind it. Important!...When fighting this is not Roy Jones Jr. shit...Hit to hurt!...I mean using the middle knuckle on the middle finger as a spear and aim for the eyes, throat, temples, and especially the solar plexus..

floating rib also.

My friend was a top boxer. Unfortunately i was fighting on new years eve 07/08 and my hands etc were bruised. I mentioned to my friend why i wasnt trianing and showed him my hands. They were yellow all over the first 2 knuckles right halfway don the back of my hands.

He said "at least you were hitting them the right way" LOL
