Wicked someone who wants to answer my questions on 'fighting'.
How do i 'block' a leading leg hook punch?
Is there an 'effective' way to counter a double leg when your opponent already has hold of both your knees - while remaining on your feet?
Whats the best 'gaurding' postion vs a boxer?
Is it more effective to pivot on the ball of the foot or the heel?
Is a palm more 'effective' than a fist?
Whats the 'most painfull' move that you can do to someone?
I hope you can see where im going here.
Talking about fighting is great fun but to be honest its a load of bs. Its compleately subjective and whatever you say i could say something almost opposite and still be perfectly correct.
If i ask you how to block a jab and you respond by saying 'duck' then i can simply say 'why not slip'?
This is likely the reason you dont see many posts along these lines. Most of us realise its a little bit futile to try and glean actual fighting *skill* of the internet. Sure you can learn about history or many other interesting things. However i would hardly use it as a way of trying to learn counters or techniques.
Up and down, forward and backward, left and right, its all the same. All of this is done with the mind, not externaly.
