Whats this move called?
All the hallmarks of a Russian fight production, but everything's in English. Mind bottling.
>>209753>Mind bottling
>>209693>They're running ads on their skin?Yep, "The War" tournament treats their fighters like a nascar vehicle. I know thier league started in 2021 but they aren't going to last long if they continue to be this tacky.
>>209371haymaker, retard punch,
>>209371>boxing doesnt work in a real fight
Is there a martial art that is 100% defensive?ONLY blocks and evades.MAYBE some holds or locks but ideally just defense.>inb4 running awayYeah yeah I get it but still please.
>>212054The fuck is Tarantino's problem?

A place to discuss zorbing and zorbing accessories. A misunderstood but globular extreme sport. Limp Bizkit once wrote a song about this
>>215132>disgracing the noble sport of zorbing with AI slop
>>215184I think it's acceptable given that all the original photos were burned by the anti-zorb lobby before they could be digitized.Speaking of lobbies, did you know there was a zorb event planned for 2012 Olympics in London? We were so close to greatness...
Santa Claus zorbs
>>215234if zorbing really becomes a permanent olympic sport, all of the underground zorbing rings will lose what makes them special when all he proffesionals pivot over to officially sanctioned events. The olympic committees would probably force everyone to wear special suits for saftey reasons, outlaw the use of lubricants, and forbid zorb decorating. not to mention the substance abuse/doping etc, but everybody already knows that's a problem.
>>218497>zorb suitsAnd then they'll ban the event because everyone passed out from heat stroke. But to be honest, I don't think underground zorbing is all that great. Needlessly dangerous courses only attract bloodthirsty rubbernecks, and they will never appreciate technical zorbing.
Based Usyk did it againUndisputed in two weight classesDude exceeded expectations and beat everyone in front of him. Great fighter. What do you guys think Usyk should do next? I think he's done enough and should retire.
>>218056Fury should have retired when he first said he would retireNow he's a foolIt'll happen to Usyk too if he doesn't know when to stop, so yes, I think he should retire while he's on top
>>218505Nah it's cooler to give all you got and then retireUysk was icey in that match though, I knew he was going to win as soon as I saw that initial staredown in the ring
I have a lot of friends who are learning boxing and kick boxing. Should I take some lessons or just buy a gun?
>>212466learn to fight and buy a gun and everything else that you can and by more guns and various weapons. Be as bad as you can be, learn how to hack, learn human anatomy so you will know all the vital arteries and organs to attack. Learn how to throw a baseball acurately, how to throw a knife, how to shoot a bow and arrow. how to shoot a pistol, how to use a sniper rifle, how to fly a god damn helicopter. Star jogging, running, sprinting, swimming. sky diving. Get in tip top shape and try out for US Navy Spec Ops.
>>212466For street defense>How to punchWill give you a feel for how bad it can be to lean in too hard into a punch while punching so you learn how to be safe >KickboxingWill teach you that kicking in the streets can be retarded if you slip and fall on concrete>JudoWill teach you how not fall headfirst onto concrete or fall in a fucked up way and be unable to run awayKickboxing also will show you the perils of changing level into someone smacking you in the faceAll these martial arts are good. If only to reach you how to not get yourself dead
not OP but I will also ask: I have been a retard for a long while. I had a basic\good base on kickboxing and boxing, but I stopped going to the gym because it wasn't "hard enough" and spent months practicing punches, kicks, etc against those iron poles or metal equipment at public park, trees, hitting myself with dumbbells or even barbells, etc ,and just sprinting\ doing random but tiring shit with my home gym weights.Now I came to realize : life ISN'T about headbutting s dumbell for reps ..I sincerely want to learn an Art (of fighting now) so:> what coordination ,hand-eye drills are good and where can I get a book about them?\ youtube channels, etc?>what sparring regime is advice for a non-pro, frequency, agreed-upon level of harshness, etc?>what equipment MUST a gym have? tear drop bag, banana bag etc>Should I learn no-gi BJJ ,and K-1? I want to acquire real fitness, agility, dynamic power and body-smarts. (I will move to another City so I won't be returning to the gym I went to. I think they don't give the classes anymore even)
>>214543>Normal PeopleAhhhh. The American method
>>215876my man....your first stop needs to be a Psychologist.
I've been boxing for a month and after hitting the beavy bag for a few rounds I ALWAYS have sore hands and forearms, and the pain lasts for days. I have an office job so a hand injury is not something I want. Will it go away or should I go for a grappling art instead?
>>217637Is it muscle soreness or actual "bad pain"?If it's the former, just exercise your forearms. If it's the latter, slow down for a while, make sure you're not getting injured and slowly build to the point that you can punch comfortably
>>217637if you've never punched anything for an extended period that's normal
Grappling with a gi is way worse for your hands.
>>217637Are you wrapping your hands and using proper gloves? If yes just take it slow and see how it goes. You need to assess if it's just muscle/tendon/bone weakness or if you are fucking yourself with poor technique.
>>217637Thank God I grew up with a father so I didn't turn into a little pussy ass bitch like OP
am new to the sport. whats the best paddle to cook in the kitchen?? (AKA be good in the kitchen.).
I recommend hitting that bitch with a frying pan
>>210897Nope
>>210897gay sport
Whats this sport called?
>>209885#metoo does she have a sister
>>209875>Whats this sport called?Attention whoring.
>>210672Let's assume 190cm which seems like on the higher end (guy is probably around 170-175cm, otherwise he'd weigh more than 64kg). 100kg is still 15kg too much with her build.
>>209875I think its called, "lying on social media for attention."
>>209875>Whats this sport called?Brap Log, evidently.
soaping bros, we're home

Jon Jones loses to Pereira by unanimous and the score would be impossible to rob (4-1, or 5-0). Jon Jones get's really mad and accepts the Aspinall fight.Loses to Aspinall by TKO in R2.Becomes like McGregor.
>>217799You're a real optimist if you believe he'll stop dodging Aspinall. Jones is afraid of Aspinall.
surely this time it will happen
what's a good extreme sport for someone who likes video games?
>>217795League of legends
>>217795Racing, if you like controllers or a keyboard and mouse, then you'll like a steering wheel/handlebar. Archery or target shooting, requires no athleticism.
whats the idea behind fighting
What's the idea behind sporty polite contests with your gay lover?
>>217252if it's between gay lovers ill say brazilian jiu jitsu
>>217254idk i dont do bjj
>>217255Lmao good one
>>217220pretty much the difference between a guy who believes it's his destiny to become a killing machine, or a guy who just does this sport for fun and has a secure job outside fighting.
boxing generalITT we talk about boxing, not focusing on fights and events but talking about training, techniques, gym shit, injuries, our sparring and fights, ask for advice etc
>>197798That’s the jist of it, yeah
I'm a big guy, I'm 6"3' and I used to be a powerlifter so I'm strong fatI'm right handedWhen I was young I badly injured my right shoulder, so when I started boxing I learned to lead with my right arm despite being right handedI've been doing this so long that leading with my dominant hand feels totally natural and normal; jabs and lead hooks feel like butterWhen training I read Jack Dempsey's book and focused a lot on hitting hardAfter a few years my shoulder totally healed and it has since regained all its strengthApparently a large guy who fights southpaw despite being right handed, and who focuses almost entirely on hitting hard, is terrifying, since I can throw jabs like sledgehammersShould I go on a cut and compete?Someone told me I'd do pretty well
>>216167Tony Jeffries is a professional trainer that has a lot of boxing videos about how to improve, however be aware that he uses a british boxing style so if you use something different like the soviet style it won't suit you unless you have the normal stance then you shouldn't have any problems taking his videos into account
>>216845If you really are invested go on and try it. But beware they are gonna fuck you up, i posted my experience a little up in the thread where i got to fight an experienced amateur in an sparring a "golden boy" if you wanna read it. They are gonna use you for boosting golden boys of the gyms and if you wanna improve in the sport you are gonna have to eat a lot of shit. But like i said try it and see for yourself if you wanna try compettive boxing. Blessings.
>>216845Yes we are all terrified of you, big fellaYou're so scary yes you are
2D games lets you jump high, no side step3D games lets you side step, not let you jump highBut in real world blood sport, is side step actually utilized? And not talking about bob and weave.What I'm trying to say is, I need gifs and webms.
>>217761Getting out of the center line and stepping outside of your opponent's lead foot are some of the most basic techniques in many martial arts
