Dude came in to our gym with revgear gloves. I was like “you watch hard2hurt?” He was like “yeah how’d you know?” 😂
Here's a fun gym trick if you want to mess with somebody . Square up a bit while sparring and throw a few 1-2's but at some point switch your lead hand but DON'T switch your feet. Then throw a few jabs with what used to be your rear hand but is now the "lead". It wont reach as far so your opponent will re-adjust and let you get closer so when you throw the "rear" hand you will catch them. I've pulled this off a LOT but it only works once and like I said, it's mainly just a fun trick.
So some false lead chaos magic
Ah yeah! Us Karate guys call this Gyaku hanme basically means rear hand in front guard. You can fire a misttle of a jab like that. We learn this from the kata Sochin. Look into it
I've actually don't it a few times myself. Nothing too special that I'd do it frequently.
@@MJRLHobbyStuff I don't think this would work practically in the karate stance
@@umbrellastation25 you are correct. The switch lead hand would not work in the traditional bladed stance, but something between the boxers square stance and half bladed will work
I've been watching for a while now, but this has to be the most chaotic video I've ever seen. Like, even by Icy Mike standards. Like you were casting a chaos magic spell 12 minutes long.
Still super informative and practical video though! Thanks for the tips, coach. Recently started going back to training after years of health issues. Getting my jabs back in order is a good thing to focus on, and this will definitely help.
Diminuitive is a hard word! Good job nailing it.
This thumbnail is pure gold
The cartoon you're referring to is _Foghorn Leghorn_ he was a giant Rooster that constantly screwed with the dog. It was mine and my dad's favorite Looney Tunes cartoon. RIP pop
I have a saying. Wrong is determined by rate of success. Meaning if it works more than it fails it's not wrong just unorthodox
Step 1. Eat the Gomu Gomu Devil Fruit
in spear fighting my teacher taught me something he called Dog Attack. you show them your range and it is just short. Then you settle in but you are resetting your range by adjusting your feet. Keep the tip of the spear still so they don't know the ranging is different. Next attacks strikes cause it has more range. Wonder if the name comes from the same concept.
I like whenever he says that I've seen world champion fighters do that so it works.
It's so true bcz we care too much about text books and we forget to break the boundaries of it, change can't be done without breaking rules.
What I learned most from this is that Mike won't tell us how many tips at the start because he can't count. However he has helped my jab
Red Magic technique: stepping forward, putting your rear foot in front of your lead foot, then taking a sipper long step foward allowing you to cross nearly half the ring with a single step to throw a super hard stick jab...It's supper slow and only works once, but it will catch em off gaurd.
I fucking love this video. Not only that but I recall a slightly different take on the last bit of Chaos magic here from Mike. If I remember correctly he was sayin to do the exact same concept by jabbing almost in place but hiking up the back foot closer to the lead with each fake jab. I actually get a lotta use out of this technique and it’s opened up a world of possibilities for me, thanks Mike!
Was a video with Jared... that's a great spell
@@hard2hurt oh yeah
Something I've often wondered (considering I'm looking at getting my hips replaced within the next five years):
Would you consider doing a series or even just a video on self defense techniques & tactics for people with mobility impairments? Are you supposed to kick differently with hip replacements than you would with organic hips? Are there certain grabs or guards you can use while seated without the use of your legs?
Just a thought. Thanks for providing so much free information to so many people.
Yes, you are definetly restricted in your movements with hip replacements, doctors will recommend you don't bend your hip too far, don't sprint etc
I KNEW you were secretly Dhalsim all along.
Mike really just said "Cast a debuff on 'em." I love this channel, man! Good shit! You helped me with a lot with my amateur fights and sparring because the gym I train is just vanilla braindead garbage, man lol.
Best advice I have ever gotten was from a boxing coach, he told me the range of your punches is dictated by your back foot. Didn't make sense at first, but than he showed me. He asked me to fully pop out my jab, with a front foot leap added. Of course, it's like a fencing jab nothing new. Than he asked, why can't you go further? Than I realized it's because I'd be off balance because my rear foot is too far back.
He taught me to disguise my approach with guard taunting (you know mixing up your stance a bit), but slide your back foot forward almost underneath you. Than you EXPLODE forward with a heavy jab, and I've rocked a lot of peoples shyt with that advice. You add like a whole foot of range without them realizing it. Mix that with other tips like Mike is saying and from your opponents perspective it feels like they are fighting Mr.Fantastic from the Fantastic 4.
Loma sort of does both versions you show at the same time. He pushes off the back foot for max distance, but brings it in quickly enough that both feet land at the same time. Then to get back out, he does the same motion in reverse
Edit: it’s worth noting that this goes hand in hand with his little hopping phase-shift move. If he hops in with his foot on the outside, and his opponent fears the cross-that’s when he shoves his glove in their face so they can’t see while he does a little hopping pivot to their blindside.
Point being that he lands with both feet at once, so that cross comes out instantly. Which eventually sets up the flinch.
Putting here cuz lack of responses.
There’s a purpose for putting your chin to your shoulder on straight shots, and it has nothing to do with protecting your chin. Think about it for a moment. I have plenty of other real estate on your head besides your chin that I can KO you with. Protecting your chin does nothing in this instance.
The real reason why people are taught to touch the chin to the shoulder is to protect your shoulder. When you’re putting snap on a back hand, and your shoulder goes past your chin, you can throw out your shoulder. I’ve done it before and it hurts. So to protect your shoulder, and allow you to throw with more power, you touch the chin to the shoulder.
You can do it or don’t, it doesn’t always matter. I like doing it that way on crosses specifically.
@@BiggityBoggity8095 since this is an mma channel, I do want to point out that I’ve seen Adesanya defy certain death by turning a cross (with his chin tucked) into a sort of ‘shoulder roll with arm deflection’ to avoid an incoming headkick.
You are still vulnerable on the inside, however tucking the chin _does_ provide a lot of protection from shots on the outside. Fury vs Ngannou is a great example of how vulnerable not tucking the chin leaves you to the outside.
@@BiggityBoggity8095 it serves a lot of purposes but one of them absolutely is protecting you from getting concussed LMAO
In Jack Dempseys book he talks about the powerline jab which is vertical fisted like the Kung Fu jab you demonstrated. You don't get the torque and snap from turning your jab over like a traditional modern jab. But it's stiffer and more powerful.
great call, that book is a must read for any boxer
his explanation of the powerline in particular explains the mechanics of the punch from a-z as well as anything i've come across
You made a brief mention of it in this video and I'm trying to figure it out for myself: would you mind doing a video some time about strategies for 'flat-footed' fighting? I've been trying to pick up the bouncy style of footwork that the instructors in both of my kickboxing schools so far have insisted on, and I'm not *awful* at it, but between my previous training (kung fu lol) and my general tendencies, I much prefer a more rooted way of moving. I'd love to hear your thoughts about how or if distance control changes when you're not as bouncy, for instance.
I switch between both a lot and from my point of view, if your technique is good, the only real difference between them is that bouncing helps mask the initials movements of your footwork, making it a bit easier to catch your opponent with your first attack, while being still helps you defend against low kicks and lower grapples (single and double leg takedowns, tackles, etc) as you can more easily regulate your stance (but if your technique is a bit lacking, you may find that one tipe of stance or the other might help mitigate or exacerbate your flaws, and usually the one that helps mitigate them are the bouncing stances).
Also I feel like is a bit easier to sell fakes and feint with your footwork on a still stance, as the movements are much more obvious to the opponent and therefore you won't need as big of a movement to sell it, but that's more of a feeling and I'm not sure enough that there is a noticeable difference yet, so take it with a grain of salt.

Just do grappling hahaha.
Nah i'm joking. Real answer incoming:
Just do Muay Thai lol (they are very flat footed and it work for them. Learn from them)
Well, classic Muay Thai uses a posture-based scoring system, or one that cares about perceived effect on the opponent. That, plus the regularity of their fights, makes the average Nak Muay prefer a more flat-footed style. It doesn’t necessarily make it the best application of footwork outside of that use case. Otherwise we wouldn't have foreign fighters with Dutch-style bases or more boxing-inspired footwork catching Thai fighters with the use of angles and their punching skills.
If a bouncy opponent is trying to pressure, then use your stability to make them respect your attacks. If the bouncy opponent is trying to dance around, to dart in and get out, use small steps to adjust to their angle changes and work on setups that counter their longest offensive plays (straight punches and any kicks).
Also, stable doesn’t have to be stationary, so you can include some explosiveness of your own to shock your way into infighting range and/or into the clinch. Make sure you avoid any obvious tells about when you’re advancing, like sinking your weight or cocking your hip or anything that means you’re not closing distance under some kind of cover.
Demetrious Johnson isn’t a bouncy fighter, but he uses front kick fakes to switch stance and close the distance with his knee as a threat and barrier. His clinch game is also exceptional, and that should also be a weapon against people who don't want to stay in the pocket.
Hope this helps!
More running, or jump rope. Or just make an effort to walk around heels up. Started doing that as a kid and now I have big calves and hoping and bouncing is almost 0 effort. Also weighted calf raises in the gym.
Lol the thumbnail
I just learned yesterday how effective jabbing while stepping in with BOTH feet can be. Before, I was only stepping in with my lead leg, pushing off the back leg. Now I'm stepping with the back leg right after pushing off it. A game changer!
Awesome!
Damn, I was under the impression that this would be a tutorial on how to develop the powers of Dahlsim
Nooo you really mispeled Dhalsim's name.
Go to indian jail, now
@@jestfullgremblim8002damn your right I’m obviously not worthy 😞
@@willowwren615 it's ok, you can still enlist in the Dan Hibiki's school.
GSP has a mean jab he leans forward into (steps off with his back leg too) But he snaps his upper body back so quick, and the jab connects so well, that he can pull it off and get away.
I love the thumbnail it brought me temporary happiness
If you do it on purpose it’s not wrong. Unless you get your shit rocked. If you’re getting your shit rocked, it’s wrong-Icey Mike. That’s why this is my favorite combat channel 😂😂😂
Love the video! Great tips
Mike you're brilliant dude! Keep it up
I want more collerful magic attacks from Icy Mike
Amazing video!🎉
Smashin' NDAs with an extended jab, GG. Thanks, Icy Mike!
6:40 I agree mike, three quarters of an inch is enough
I was hoping you would say something about circling footwork. I always thought it was so cool how Ali would seem to get more distance at the expense of power with this circling footwork and just pock and touch up the other guy to make him chase all the while working the crowd and getting a rhythm for when he'd unleash his power lead straight to really do some damage
🤣 I love this channel.
I don't always agree with you 100%
But it's great. Informative, always gives more options to an already chaotic situation, and funny 💪
Good work.
"3/4s of an inch is a big deal" thank you @hard2hurt, I needed to hear that today.
That thumbnail is hilarious. Thank you for making my day 😂
Big fan of the 9 techniques shown!
Outstanding 🙏👌
Why did i laughed so hard at the thumbnail 🤣
Conor Mcgregor uses that dog chain technique all the time! Loads of his early KOs in the UFC were set up like this
Hahahahaha yesss! I love the sense of humor with the thumbnails hahaha
The jab in the thumbnail reached my eyes alright
This video reminds me of how similar boxing is to fencing. Especially on the points of using your jab to shake your opponent up psychologically, and on the dog chain technique. I have the dog chain technique fundamentally folded into my swordplay, personally, because I like to set people up for one fatal shot instead of trying to catch them with nicks and cuts. I fight permanently in a defensive position, with my right foot behind my left, which means that people get used to my range being short, and when I want to increase my range, I don't typically put my right foot forward, I just step my whole body forward, left leg still in front, and just play a range game with them until I think they're primed to make a mistake. Then I just STEP forward like a normal person, bringing my right foot forward and giving myself easily two or more feet of reach I didn't have the ENTIRE fight, and then get 'em.
The only time this thing DOESN'T work well in my experience is against a polearm, or maybe in boxing if your opponent has such a freakishly long reach that you cannot engage them without them popping you. If you're against someone like that, you gotta go aggro and just go for it, but if you can stay in range to fight your opponent and just stay defensive til it's time to capitalize, it works really well in my experience.
Wow this video felt oddly classic in a way, still these are great tips for me now just like they were before i had ever joined a gym. reminds me that i still have more work to do on my jab.
Btw you should do a video on same side vs opposite side combos. e.g. jab, inside leg kick, left round vs cross, left hook, outside leg kick. Both work, very different and i feel like there is a lot to discuss.
Also a video on mixups please, the more i use them the more i love them, theyre incredible little traps that quite literally overwhelm your opponents mind. i NEED to learn more, currently my favourite part of striking to work on.
Your best thumbnail ever!
If your name is Noah, you can fight cause you have some cool gear.
Coolest gloves ever btw.
Fantastic Thumbnail Mr
That thumbnail is hilarious
"Everybody wants a couple more inches" as someone with a body, I can approve.
There is a jab technique which is brilliant and had been used by the Legendary Ricardo Finito Lopez and Jack Dempsey is when they crouch down slightly and then explode forward with a jab, almost like a gazelle punch.
Gotta Love the Glove(s)!
lol this thumbnail is gold!
Love the dog chain analogy
Best thumbnail yet
Great vid as usual.
What magic system are you working with bro? Is chaos magic some twisted rainbow of colors? Are you a witch, a warlock, a sorcerer, a bard or a wizard? These are the questions coaches don't want to answer... Good video
What about the pivot onto the ball of the lead foot for a side jab and immediate fall back? One heel up as the other goes down and reverse. I can get a few extra inches that way.
that thumbnail is amazing XD
The RPG references are genuinely helpful and 100% on point. Would be cool to see some swordfighty stuff again. But in the Hard2Hurt style. Street swordfighting or something like that. Damned shame it's a niche audience for that.
The magic references really helped.
Monkey D. Mikey thumbnail is crazy. His anime is called TwoPiece, the. Name of the treasure at the end if the Grandline.
Mike is and will always be a karate guy
😂
10:22 You're thinking of the Tom and Jerry cartoon "Fit To Be Tied," in case you were curious.
Source: Watched an unhealthy amount of classic cartoon reruns in the 2000's.
What is your opinion on keeping the rear hand to the front of your chin (to parry the straight counter) rather than on your temple (to absorb the hook) when you jab? (Bruce Lee advocated this, partly because it was more like Wing Chun and partly because Ali did it and he revered Ali.)
I always love the DnD analogies.
