This is a short video I made on the basics of the shoulder roll and how to use it.

The basics:

The shoulder roll properly implemented:

The only punch in the round to connect was the left hook at 2:23. However, I had my chin properly braced, and it turned an otherwise flush connect into a glancing blow.

If anyone shows any interest, I will make a much more comprehensive series of videos in the gym chronicling the forgotten nuances of defensive boxing.

If anyone has any questions or needs something clarified, I am more than happy to answer them.

How come your're the best at everything? whats your secret?

I am not entirely sure, but I have a nagging suspicion that I might be a robot.

Can you only use it if your stance is with the left hand low?
What do ya do with a jab?
What can ya do about a left uppercut?

Good vid mate.

No, It can be done with hands high. It can be done from the Winky Wall. I prefer the left hand low for the increased visibility it affords me. If you are comfortable with your hands high, all of these defensive techniques will still work.

There are four options with the jab. You can catch it, you can parry it, you can slip it, or you can roll left and block it.

Left uppercuts are not a problem. There are several ways to deal with them. It depends on what position you are in. I personally have never been hit with an uppercut. They are the easiest punch to see, and the easiest to avoid.

You can roll an uppercut blocking with your elbow. You can catch an uppercut. You can slip an uppercut, mostly, if you are in a tight shell, you will not have a problem with it.

Thanks. I am gonna experiment with that style in sparring. I can't see **** coming with hands up. Which means I can't counter.

Thanks. I meant in the philly shell style. I noticed ya trainer was just throwing left hooks and right hands. How would in that style you get away from the jab? Or can ya still parry etc. with the left hand. Wait, I guess ya can lol.

Yeah, that seems the punch that I will mostly struggle with in the philly shell as it go through and up th body as there is high gaurd in place.



Thanks mate.

I am not sure what you mean. He threw a lot more jabs than hooks. The jab is caught with the right glove. While it is possible to parry a jab with the left hand, its rather impractical in most situations.

As for anyone having trouble dealing with uppercuts, no-matter your defensive style, keep in mind that keeping your chin down, and looking down are not the same thing. Chin tucked is good, head down is not.

Might want to start fully extending your punches, reguarding the video on the mits.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


You seem to know everything shawn. How come your not pro yet?:puppy_dog

:boxing:Turn pro and save:duh: boxing.:banana:

Good video !!Shawn. I been trying to find something about using shoulder roll. Thanks.

give you credit for the first two vids they were good,

however the pads looked bad to me, very slow and simple


good instructions though

Instead of mocking my knowledge, why don't you ask questions? Its how you learn.

Those were not pads, all the punching I did was my trainer trying to create openings in my defense. That is neither here nor there, I included the video so that you could see how I use the techniques I laid out in the instructions.

You can see the progression of techniques from the shoulder parry to the Toney roll to rolling under.

Instead of mocking my knowledge, why don't you ask questions? Its how you learn.

how can you possibly be so arrogant?

dacatas is already twice the boxer you'll ever be and your telling him to ask questions and learn from you.

you seem to think your some boxing genious when your not, your an avrage boxer trying to show what you know on the internet.......

What ever you say friend.

Even Floyd Mayweather had to learn....

How about you guys stop hating on !! Shawn? If you can already do a shoulder roll, dont watch the vids. If you wanna learn watch them and ask what you wanna know. Whats the point of hating on a guy for trying to help you out?

If you do make any more of these vids !! Shawn I, for one, would be grateful :fing02:

Any particular move or aspect of boxing you would like a tutorial on?

Nothing particular really.

Any other defensive techniques would be cool though :)

Nice videos...Your good

Id knock your shoulder off.

Interesting...

Why post videos to help people when your as useful as a hole in a condom. Your just gonna teach everyone on the site to be a defensive ***** like you! :D

And I guess your defence is your chin huh?

And I guess your defence is your chin huh?

The maturity level here is quite sad. I am not here seeking approval, or demanding people recognize me as gods gift to boxing. I am simply here to share my experience, and help people develop as fighters.

For some reason, people find it necessary to talk trash, tell me I am crap, tell me they will kick my ass... all sorts of things. They get offended when I am not interested in their criticism...

Thats fine with me... My ego is not bruised. Everyone is different, some people need a good ass-whooping to learn, some people listen and absorb all the information they can because they realize there is always more to learn.

I am here to help the latter. The people that are truly interested in learning about the sweet science, and improving their skills. The kind of person that realizes that no matter how good you are, there is always more to learn, and improvements to be made.

I also find it amusing how people criticize my "ego". There is no such thing as a fighter without an "ego". If you didn't believe in yourself and your abilities, you would NEVER step through those ropes.

While I disagree with Punch Drunk on some things, I respect him, because he is not closed minded like many of the people attempting to insult me. He has an "ego" just like every other fighter or ex-fighter, but he realizes that there is always room for improvement.

Do you have any other vids on boxing?

Do you have any other vids on boxing?

No, but if you have any requests, I'll take them into consideration for future videos.

to whoever wants to take me up:
i would like a video on how to avoid getting crowded by punches by someone with faster hands then you. i mean properly covering up and getting out of sticky situations if you know what i mean. im fine boxing on the outside, keeping my jab going. but as soon as someone penetrates my jab and gets really close, i get bullied backwards quickly.

btw i liked the pads work where you implamented it. ill never keep my left down like you but it gives me ideas for movement. i often find myself tense up with my feet when im in trouble and dont move away from danger enough. i just try and block it.

I am not sure what you are talking about. I'll make a video dealing with getting out of corners and turning your opponents, and spinning out. I'll make another video dealing with using defense to control the center of the ring.

Okay, I'll make a video about how to properly cover up and deal with flurries.

yeah its the quick flurries that get me. i get overwhelmed, forget to move properly, and end up against the ropes being layed into

Just wanted to say thanks, very good videos and don't let *******s get to you :].

Good video i guess, could help some people out.. though you seem to think to much of yourself you're an average boxer at best, but you present yourself like you know everything.

So a video on:

Covering up and dealing wiht flurries and turing your oponent and geting out of corener,

dealing with sticky situations
