Tony, when I think of lead uppercut KOs, I think George Foreman on Gerry Cooney. 2nd Round. What an uppercut, and he finishes with an overhand right.
Are you taking contracts for new students? Is 40 to old to start training?
@@KT-mp7hl sui
@@KT-mp7hl I just started last year. I’m 55. Not planning to ever get in a ring, just doing it for the work-out…
Was hitting the bag yesterday and was thinking "I wonder if Tony has a vid on the lead uppercut, I feel like I need to work on mine" and here you come with this like you read my damn mind haha.
SUIIIIIIIII
Keep it up mate, I'll do more vids to help you guys 🥊
@@Tony_Jeffries thx Tony
The Cross-lead uppercut combo is one of my favorites.
Sui
Me as well mate, what's ur fav combo?
@@Tony_Jeffries cross-lead hook-rear uppercut-lead hook with some slips and pulls thrown in between has helped me land some good shots. And if that fails, I back up and jab out
@@Tony_Jeffries bro theres some yter tryin to fight u cuz he thinks ur stealing his ideas, hes called fouts boxing theories
Thank you Tony, the set up for the lead uppercut is the same as a lead hook to the body, I could have fun with that in sparring because I do use the lead hook to the body often. I'm going to play with that lead uppercut and lead hook next sparring session. I also seen your video of the lead hook with out the setup too. I could mix and match that in as well. Thank you for this video, I'm always looking for ideas to work on in training/sparring. God bless you and yours bro
Sui
You're a great coach and bring all your lessons with such enthusiasm and humor! Thanks for everything and love from The Netherlands mate!
Awesome lesson coach! Great punch & setup to compliment a left jab. Thanks again. 😎🤙🏾

Same here!
Coach your work has helped me so much in the gym. I saw a video from Fouts boxing theory in which he was slandering you a lot…id like to say no matter what me and many others are grateful for your knowledge and time, let’s never let the haters ruin this community we have not fouts boxing or anyone else
Fouts boxing has a reason to be pissed and Tony needs to respond to it.
Thank you mate! Fouts boxing theory who? Never heard that name mate.
@@Tony_Jeffries His called you out to fight mate 😅 Watch his latest video 😬

Thank you.
Its so funny i just watched a fight at ufc 165 brandon something vs matt something and i coulda sworn i saw you in the corner of brandon (he won via a darce choke). Glad to know i picked the right youtube channel to begin my attempt to learn and as much as humanely possible master mma boxing all forms of combat sport just because i think i can and wanna see if thats just me having an overinflated ego or maybe just maybe i might have something special within that can allow me to do the feats of strength and power that combat sports professionals do on a daily basis and act like its a normal tuseday👍i wonder how many people also have the same idea as they watch your content perhaps one day ill fight them in one sphere of combat sports or another who knows thatd be fun 👊🤷♂️💯
Great video. Thanks
Thank you 🙏🏼
Hi Tony can u do a video please on strength and conditioning for amateurs it would be much appreciated because I'm having my first skills bout soon and want too have a good shape for the bout

Thanks for the request as well ma friend! It helps the viewers.
Thank you for all that you do! Question if you ever have the time could you do a video on what prohibits people from boxing professionally. That would be great!
Sui
Watch this video mate: kzhead.info/sun/ZLaYfLl-jIikh3k/bejne.html it might give you the answer regarding the pros and cons of being a pro boxer.
Tony, can you cover uppercut defence please?
Hello sir I started watching your videos before I was in the boxing gym and it helped me a lot so I wanted to tell and ask you that is it enough or should I do more than my training so, that's what I usually do 45 minutes of running on the first day of the week (Sat) by the end of the week I run 1 hour after that I do some stretching and exercise around 12-16 mints then 4 rounds of shadow boxing each round is 4-7 mints long (based on the day of the week. for example on sat I do 4 mints and on Thursday 8 or sometimes 7 mints) first round is just to work on my 1 2, left jab and right hand then the second round is 4 punch including hooks uppercuts straights 4 punches combination, etc. In the third round, it's footwork like almost everything defensive, ducking, head movement. everything and the last round is short around 1 or 1 and a half mint this one is for speeding up constantly throwing punches and then bag so, I like to ask you do I have to increase anything more in this and can you plz tell me anything more that I or anyone can do in shadow boxing.
I throw it differently. I throw what I call the "WHUPPER CUT"! It's like a whip that's going upwards instead of downwards, and has the same impact as an upper cut. Some sketchy combat sport taught it to me, and it works HELLA great in boxing :D
Can you explain how it works? Sounds interesting
@@ahumanoidoforiginx7957 Literally explained everything there is to explain xD I wish I had a video where I can show it to you. The best thing about it is that it catches EVERYBODY off-guard. And the best way I can describe it is, imagine hitting something with a whip. And then imagine that thing you're hitting being above you.
Best lead uppercut boxer I saw,was Prince naseem hamed,used it a lot as a southpaw,lifted guy head up followed with left,knocked down lot people with it,roy Jones jnr was good as well
This is The only boxing Channel you need
Thanks mate! - You can check all my videos here: kzhead.infovideos
@@Tony_Jeffries thank you, im always checking out your videos 🥊
Hey Tony, great stuff as always. Any advice how, when teaching someone, you move from techniques practice like this into sparring? Do you have a controlled type sparring session? Maybe one side attacking and one side trying to use only the new technique... Or such?
Exactly that mate, start slow and technical
I've seen many boxing matches. So why am I still surprised by the sheer striking speed of a pro?
Hi Tony!
Hey @Tony Jeffries can you tell on an average, how many punches a boxer throws in a round...like for a feather weight fighter
Sir can you make a video that how to clinch safely,properly and legally?
i remember that knockout from povetkin. that was nasty. i think he opened him self a bit, by moving his left leg to the side, and then wham he done ll that tony said, and knocked down dillian whyte.
Hi Tony love from India
How are you there mate? Is your Gym open in India during this pandemic mate?
@@Tony_Jeffries sir i don,t practise i am an profsional boxer i am 2 time state champion and khelo india runner up
The lead uppercut is my favorite punch to throw. As it's kinda like a power shot but doesn't take a while to throw
Every punch starts with the elbow of the arm that's not punching. There is a metaphysical line from your left hand to your right elbow, and from your left elbow to your right hand. The line is like a metal rod that doesn't bend. You have to be on that line to use waist power.
Thanks a lot brother ❤ (Praveen from india)
What Oz gloves would you say a middleweight should do pad work with? I'd be curious on your experience with boxing gloves
Maybe make a video of what you eat before and after workouts? Would be cool
I'll add that to my lists mate, thanks for the idea.

Uppercut and hook nearly look the same....but hook can be practiced on the bag...but uppercut may hurt wrists..(.Tyson) uppercut doubt is cleared now... thanks
Good point
It's difficult he says lol , had an old coach that told me one time "ain't nothing easy about boxing." You're damn right it's difficult
Exactly mate, especially when ur starting
Do one for the rear hand uppercut and hook

Is it ok if my body turns side ways when doing this
💪🏿
What about the lead uppercut as a counter and pivoting left after
I follow it all the way through and I find my back being bent forward for a second not sure if it’s right
@@biggieshakurjones7891I’m new to it as well you would want to dip slightly and put your back into it, techniques are complex so it comes to a matter of feeling sometimes rather than thinking just my theory 👍
I don't think you should be using any hip torque - it's all in the hip FADE (which is effectively what you seem to be doing via use of that initial slip). But I'd personally describe it as a kind of 'reverse slip'; and can be thrown straight off-the-bat.
❤🥊
👍👍
Every fighter fighting Whyte should watch this video.
James has good humor
It's true mate😂
Bro. What's that with you and Boxing Theory 🤔
I love you so much -1-

Great to hear Hemel! Keep it up mate.
Upper cut, hook,
Had my trainer tell me "this isn't how you throw an uppercut, quit it" in training today during shadowboxing. Nearly laughed, and kept throwing it anyway.
🥊🥊
Do a video for southpaws like me 😀
Sure mate, what video do you want, ill add it to my list.

Video idea: how to deal with a beginner "street fighter" style fighter
Hi Tony I am beginner and interested in the Martial arts and I know getting punched is something must but I want to avoid it as much as possible or at least I want to avoid getting brain damaged as much as possible. Because I know how valuable is the brain is so what is your suggestion as a beginner like me getting his feet in the striking world.
Proper equipment, head guard etc. And "normal" without ego, sparing partners.
If you don't want to risk brain damage, develop your defensive awareness. First, train your balance and footwork. keep an athletic stance -- feet at least shoulder distance apart. Learn how to move in any direction at anytime WHILE keeping your balance. the better your balance is, the more defensive options you will have. Practice your movements until you are able to stay completely balanced with your eyes closed, literally. take it as far as you can, and then take it even further than that. Learn as many types of defense as you can. Head movement. catching punches. forearm blocks. elbow blocks. shoulder blocks. parries. etc etc. understand that each has it's own advantages and disadvantages. Train your awareness. Try to figure out what strike the opponent is going to throw from their body movement. the subtlest of movements can telegraph their intent. look up feints, and see how they can disrupt your timing. one of the easier ways to train this is by having a willing party swing pool noodles at you -- there's minimal risk of damage period. Don't just have them swing wildly at you. Have them attack you with purpose, with consistency. look up online the different punches you can replicate with the punches. start slow, work in patterns. increase the pace until you are just barely able to defend the shots. Take this as far as you can, and then take it even further than that. Even if you are the weakest person on earth, by the time you do that you should have a high enough level defense and high enough confidence to full contact spar with minimal damage. being able to spar at full intensity and be able to walk away from it nigh unhurt is the ultimate goal -- or at least the benchmark for an effective defense. And remember to mix it up once in a while. training while bored or unmotivated has reduced results. training should be new, and fresh, and fun almost every time.
@@Ahturro Thank you Arturo for your advice
@@juliansanderson839 Thank you Julian I will work on my basics and in God willing I will be able to defend my self well. grateful for you detailed advice.
I understand mate, but the name of the game is not to get hit, so I recommend you to improve ur defense and reactions. Watch here: kzhead.infovideos
Bwoomp bwoomp
This punch is amazing when faced with a southpaw.... Believe me.... Fake Jab then give the uppercut.
