5 Drills To Improve Your Footwork | Stephen Wonderboy Thompson

In this weeks Technique Tuesday I go over 5 basic footwork drills to help improve your fight game. As we know, movement is key in any fight sport (MMA, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Karate, etc.). The drills start off basic and become slightly more advanced. As always it requires a lot of training and practice so get after it! Thanks for watching!

I bet you didn't watch the fight in it's entirety.

[@joerotter2873]

@@jundialhaqiqa9907 I did but not really cause I probably looked at my phone tor five seconds at least a few times. Most the people at the arena probably looked away longer. It would seem like chore to not be able to look away once

[@many6747]

Thug Rose, the first fight was the exact same as the second

[@many6747]

Thug Rose, nothing happened until the last round. It was a majority draw because woodly didn't do anything until he landed the big flurry in the last round. This is the same fight Dana was disappointed with and was even more disappointed in the second fight because it was more of the same. Yes we do love wonderboy, but both fights were downers because of Woodly's unwillingness to engage, dunno how you remember the first being an exciting fight. The third fight was never scheduled because "Nobody wants to see these two in the octagon with eachother again".

I don't know much about Wonderboy, but I'm surprised by his dry sense of humor. It's endearing. This is a solid way to get your personality out there and earn some fans. Wish more fighters did this.
