fighters like roy jones jr and mayweather jr are easily noticed doing that. can some1 explain to me the science behind it

They're breathing out. Keeping your breath while punching will fatigue you. So it's important to breathe out every time you throw a punch.

Lol, I'm ****ing surprised you didn't know this...

Because we all want to be like Hatton.

better question is why do some boxers SCREAM..... >.>

i dunno but it makes me less tired when i do it... i dont even know why.. lolz

Makes you breathe more air out.

It's also just satisfying to get to scream and hit something really hard lol.

y thats right, i am also wondering why you don't know this after 1k posts^^

exhaling involuntarily flexes the stomach muscles especially when its a forced exhale. dont know if they only do this when they punch but it could also be done when getting hit body shots. also whiel punching if they get countered with a body shot since they exhaled their abs are flexed and ready for the hit with out hem even having to think about it.

i dont really know about breathing out and helping with stamina but i can calmly breath in and out while im punching and not make noticiable noises.

though say i pucker my lips alittle so i have to force the air out i happen to make noises and i also happen to flex my abs.

Exhaling during the movement causes it to be more powerful and completed faster.

also, any counters will be taken while you are tense, reducing damage, keeping you more balanced and meaning you wont be winded.



Pretty simple really ...

Breathing. How the hell do you not know that?

More importantly have you tried to fight without breating?

Try doing some rounds on a heavy bag without exhaling after every punch and see how tired it makes you.

Sound effects, what else?

Sounds like a bullet everytime Floyd throws a punch...

thnx for the schooling

how about rocky balboa he used to say ah ho ah when hitting the bag,was he out of his mind,or was it incorporated into the script:boxing:

i think it was just part of the script though that was written by sly so i think that means that stallone was out of his mind

It is just a way to to help your rhythm and breathing while punching. Sport Science actually had an experiment with Rampage Jackson and they showed they he hit with more force when breathing like that and/or yelling when he would punched!

theres less air in your body so you weigh less

You are suppose to exhale when throwing a punch to tighten your muscles. Prepares your body for the impact of a counter shot, plus punching without breathing makes you tired quicker.

dumbasses proper exhalation flexes the stomach muscles for extra power....

It's because muscles require oxygen just like everything else in our bodies. If we aren't supplying it, they will fatigue and then you are f*cked.

You shouldn't be surprised. 95% (if not more) of the people on these forums have never stepped into a ring in their lives and don't know jack **** about boxing.

most trainers tell you to exhale every time you punch

i hate when fighters scream when they punch. especially when i see it in the gym. f uckin annoying..my quote is "a lion while hunting doesnt roar." i mean of course ill make the breathe sound. but the whole yelling bullsiht is doin to much

They're breathing out but tbh in any form of exercise you breath out on the effort i.e a punch
