Day 1: The Battlin’ Murdocks /Fight like the Devil


Matt and his father were both boxers, while its impossible and dangerous to
box blindfolded, and you are most certainly guaranteed to get injured hitting a
heavy bag blindfolded, let’s focus on defensive maneuvers to give you that
Daredevil like “Radar Sense” to avoid blows
Head Movement:

Crucial not only in Boxing, but all forms of combat. Used primarily not just to
avoid, but to set up your strikes. A moving target is much more difficult to hit.
The best way to practice this is with an partner using pool noodles. Have your
partner swing at your head in straight and curved motions, simulating
straights , uppercuts and hooks Doing this injury free drill will assist in
turning flinching into slips, Parrys, Shoulder rolls , and bob n weaves

Bob n Weave to the Right or Left

Best Used when you’re approaching and getting into range. As soon as your
opponent throws a punch, you quickly bend at the knees (not your waist) and
move your head (like in a “V” or “U” shaped motion) stepping to the outside of
the punch. Remember to keep your weight centered at all times. If you’ve done
it correctly, you should end up on the outside of your opponent’s punch when
you come back up,

Advantages:

● Off opponents’ center line


● Able to counter quickly
● Loaded for powerful counters

Disadvantages:

● Not effective on straight punches


● Wide open if faked
● Not effective for Uppercuts or multi combos
The Parry

Slightly deflecting your opponent’s punch away with your hand using the same
side (when they throw a left you Parry with your right and vise versa) Never
Reach across!!

Advantages :

● great for power , straight and long punches as well as push


punchers
● creates vulnerability for counters, make them off balance or slows
down arm recovery
● tires opponents, especially long-armed and power-punchers
● useful for shorter fighters to deflect punches to get inside

Disadvantages:

● ineffective against fast/light/non-committed punches,& curved


punches
● not always effective against combinations
● can leave you open if you get faked
● difficult to do at close range
● not helpful against body punches

Shoulder Roll or Fade Right or Left side

The shoulder roll is naturally the next step up from the parry technique.
Instead of deflecting punches with your hands, you use your body now. The
shoulder roll is incredibly effective because your body can roll off your
opponent’s best shots with ease ,it relies on rhythm for defense while
neutralizing entire combinations at even close range.

Advantages:

● effective and easy against multiple punches


● frees up the hands for faster counter punching
● covers both head and body easily
● can work when unable to see momentarily or off-balanced
● will deflect power Punches even when they land
● saves shoulder energy & gives tricky counter angles

Disadvantages:

● ineffective/unnecessary against weaker punches it can also leave


you highly vulnerable if you get faked and/or roll in the wrong
direction
● less effective in cross-stance , extremely vulnerable to Leg kicks
and take-downs in street, Thai Boxing or MMA

Slipping to the Right or Left

Slipping requires complete evasion of the punch by displacing the head or


body to one side, MOSTLY by going to the outside of the oncoming punch,in a”
V” step ice skating motion. .

Slipping is the best way (sometimes the only way) to counter against really
fast opponents. On occasion it’s the only way to close distance against a
taller opponent, .
Advantages:

● hands and body completely free to counter instantaneously


● creates huge vulnerabilities in opponent (they are wide open after
missing)
● avoids punch entirely, no contact (assuming slip was successful )
● create escapes (great way to escape when trapped in the corner)
● allows you to advance forward while defending
● complete evasion easily breaks your opponent’s punching rhythm
(combo-breaker)
● Used to set up position for counters

Disadvantages:

● requires lots of practice and skill


● highly vulnerable if caught or faked
● not recommended against multiple punches
● ineffective against body punches

Now that we have a basic understanding, work them into your shadowboxing,
focus mitt or heavy bag session. Remember your striking table

1. Jab
2. Cross
3. Hook
4. Uppercut
5. Left Upper Cut
6. Right upper cut
Now work on:

Slip left, slip right

Bob n weave Left then Right

Slip Left, shoulder roll left, bob n weave left, repeat on other side.

Now add strikes, using your movement to position you.

1-2-1-2 slip Left, Slip Right

1- Shoulder roll Right -2-3-2

Bob n weave Right- 6-3-2

1- slip Left

2 -slip Right

1-2-3-4- bob n weave Right

3- bob n weave Left-3

2- slip Right -2

1-parry Right -2 Parry Left -shoulder roll Right -2

1-2-1-2- shoulder roll Right- 2-3

1-2-3 Slip Left , Rear Slip Left-Shoulder roll Left


Parry Left-2- Bob N weave Right-2-3

Slip Left -5-4-3

The best defensive technique?

Like the Super Soldier Serum, it does not exist. Use the one that fits your
situation and feels the most natural in that moment. If you have to think about
it too much, its not natural. Evade your opponent’s punches any way that you
can and be sure to counter immediately Different techniques will work against
different opponent’s styles. Great Fighters are forever adapting their offense
to get around opponents defense, so keep changing up your defensive game
to keep up

What is needed to fight are the ability to See, Think and Breathe

Grappling is a small component of fighting and can be done safely with eyes
closed or blindfolded in a controlled manner

Both partners start either blindfolded or eyes closed start from their knees.
using touch , sticking control and sensitivity work to get your opponent into a
dominant top position (Mount, or cross body/Side Control)

If partner A gets top position , keep your chin & weight down and try to keep /
maintain top position. Partner B on bottom should bridge hips, try to trap top
person’s limbs and use shrimping to get partner A into guard position or
escape.
