      How does Tai Chi stack up against Boxing?
      Tai Chi vs Boxing
      Tai Chi is the ultimate martial art.
      This sounds like someone out to prove something not training and it immediately gives false impressions.
      Also, while it is commonly accepted that “no right move” truly exists (I.e you have to move as you would in that situation, being natural is key and there is always options) some moves are better, easier or more efficient then others.
      A lot of movements in Tai Chi would (for a majority of people) be stripped away in favour of more direct and forceful moves or styles.
      It’s also key to note that many such “ancient styles” have replaced an overwhelming amount of sparring with rote learning and essentially shadow boxing.
      Those styles were effective mostly because the user was honed and improved through copious amounts of sparring.

    For all those that laugh at these beginner explanations, it might be interesting to know that Tai chi was originally only taught to those who had mastered all the other levels of kung fu. It wasn't taught to the public. It was the most advanced form of kung Fu. That slap to the solar plexus is nasty enough, but if he misses it can break a rib. And the opponent has to setup all over again. Also, beginners take much more shallow steps. Only the most advanced take deep steps and elongated forms. And btw, he did mention fast twitch muscle use, which needs to specifically developed intentionally. Most people will not get there. Especially if a little older. But even those only interested in the health aspect of tai chi will develop muscle memory and if put into a situation ... That will kick in and they will gate much better. You may, or may not recall that lateral movement in Olympic boxing was brought to the ring by the American boxing team in the 1980s , and they dominated.

The kind of tai chi effective for fighting is called tai chi chuan. It is an internal martial art that takes a lot of serious training to be useful in a fight. It is usually nit used on its own but to enhance. It is foolish to judge a martial art based n youtube videos only. If you really want to know you have to do so some research.

      Usually when people train in martial arts they tend to not hit hard, mostly because you aim to vital spots and whatnot so it would have a big effect (the human body is designed pretty badly)
      But sometimes they train hitting pretty hard so defence is quite useful (I trained in karate for quite a while and we didn't really hit, except when it was time to actually test the things out and that was a great way to learn defensive moves)

    I´m 50 years old, so potentially no match for young fighters. Still doing Boxing and Kickboxing, had some 50 fights in the 90s and some 1000s sparring rounds with or against fighters from any kind of style. Even with beginners i never saw a boxer throwing one straight left, leaving enough time and space to use a technique like shown in the video. It is obvious that any! fighter would adopt a superior system - but nobody in MMA-professional-fighting is using it, for the simple that it doesn´t work. It´s pretty hard to fight skilled Boxers even when you are a good (low)kicker, their punching-frequency and footwork is impressive and has proven it worth. I´ve never found a single video on YT showing a real fight in which this slapping and pushing works fine - so it will be hard to convince me.

      I think Tai Chi is really supposed to look more like boxing... like this guy (fast forward over the BS at the beginning). You can check out other videos of his students training, and it just looks like a boxing gym-- to me, the "tai chi" aspect is just the focus of training, staying loose to be quick, and then, adding in training what to do when the gloves are touching, tricks to move the opponents hands away, or control the hands and set up the knock out. But nobody in America practices it that way...

Once you can achieve his patience ,endurance, focus, self control, and undertake true Shaolin training, then, and only then would I concern myself about your opinions of this man or any Martial Artist. Another very important fact, Jake Mace doesn't allow his comments to come from an over swelled ego or a sense of self importance .If closed minds came with shut mouths, what a wonderful world this would be.

    The main thing that concerns me about this video, is that a boxers jab comes back very quick and gives time for repositioning and defence. I'd think for it to be more effective against a jab, you'd have to slip and strike at the same time. It would have also been nice to get some input from the boxer about the techniques.

    Fighting Taiji requires a lot of practice and lots of practical, full contact with realistic speed and strength. Therefore, you need a very strong, fast and agile body to be able to use Taiji in a real fight. You also need a good eye and strong self-confidence to deal properly with an escalating situation. For these reasons, it is easier to learn Taiji for health only. And just aside, what this gentleman prefers here is no taiji and only harms people.

    I'm not one to bash another style because anyone with exceptional skill and understanding can make any style work but on this video. A jab in boxing is used to distract or set up another blow or movement. A professional boxers jab like Ali's would not be able to slip like this without being caught by another left hook or straight right of uppercut. Normally slipping a jab could be dangerous as the boxer could be setting you up for a hard blow.

    Tai chi is a martial discipline and when practiced correctly can create exceptional energy (chi ) that is centred around the lower belly. The movement builds strength, speed and heightens ones ability to read the telegraphing of an enemy’s attacks. You learn how to create space and readiness when being harassed.
    But the readiness has to be kept very inconspicuous until the very last moment! Be careful not to antagonise with a flash stance, as it can make a bad situation worse!
    Be humble and loose, but crack like a whip when needs be.
    Pacifying is the best form of Defence.
    Tai chi is taught by many people but its true essence is not.
    Never compare one discipline against another, but compare the disciplined against the none!

    You would stand no chance. Tai chi it's good for your health and wellbeing, not for fighting. Even though you can use some techniques in a fight but it will not help you against boxer or MMA fighter. You need muscle and fighting skills. Breathe in breathe out will give you black eye and bleeding nose.

So yes it is right. Also when he was doing an introductory, he did tai chi, because and then did it full speed. Then he did it to his helper and took her down.

      TaiChi would dominate a lot of pro boxers today. But only the people who practice TaiChi for its main purpose can do this. Someone who practices taichi with the intent to fight with it, might not be the best taichi fighter. But someone who practices TaiChi for flow, with the primary task at hand is flow and well-being, and view fighting as something that's not primary could dominate. These people practice mainly for the flow, but also learn how to use taichi in different scenarios. And muscle isnt necessarily needed to engage in a pro boxer, if you're a master at taichi. If you aren't a master at it, and you still dont grasp the whole concept and how to apply it to fights, then you might need muscle. TaiChi is powerful my friend, much more powerful that what you think😌

      Most real tai chi guys will say that tai chi is about health and wellness, not necessarily fighting. That doesn’t mean that it can’t be used for fighting. You can’t say that tai chi would never work because there are some legit tai chi guys that fight in sanda matches often and use striking and grappling effectively. Pull the sparrow by the tail and part the horses mane are basic tai chi movements and are basically a pull down and throw.
      Cutetiger there are plenty of guys who have dabbled in tai chi that fight in MMA, and some traditionalists that can use their art to full effect. Not discounting bjj, boxing, wrestling, and Muay Thai of course, but taiji is good for us older guys who want an interesting workout that won’t hurt us. You young guns can have all that other stuff.

    I've been practicing shotokan karate in the 80's, Aikido in 80's, then thai and kick boxing, in qi gong since the 90's. I have much respect for tai chi, but a person who practices tai chi and fight with a boxer, will just get destroyed. Tai chi is a form of qi gong. tai chi has some martial roots in it, but in no way gives any capacity to any person to fight boxers. You live in an illusion if you believe the contrary. tai chi could be a complementary practice for a fighter who already is in thai boxing, or boxing, or full contact martial art. tai chi would give you better balance and better understanding of movements, but if you practice tai chi , even for 10 years, and you think you can fight a boxer with it, you are totally in an illusive world. same applies with most wu shu technic and aikido. Practicing tai chi does not prepare your body to get hit, does not teach you how to strike punches, knees elbow and kicks ... through the angle of real fight and self defense, tai chi is just a system of pointless fancy movements for people who live in a dream ... and you could almost say the same thing with most of aikido and kung fu movements, which does not teach you how to kick and punch, and only require that you grabb opponent arms at very precise moments and spots to be effective, which hapen in fancy training but never in real street combat situation or on a ring. Of course it looks good on videos or in movies; indeed practice tai chi for meditation, breathing, get better health, get bette immune system, get in harmony with the universe and follow the law of tao, but avoid it if you think you can fight just with it cause you will get wrecked...consequently this video is total utter bullshit .. ...namaste

      +astralseeker Forget what people do Taijiquan for, forget about goofballs like Jake the Fake, forget about old people dancing on a beach. Taijiquan is a fighting art. Health benefits are a plus. Qi gong to Taijiquan is like push ups and crunches to a boxer. Would you watch a boxer doing push ups and say that's not going to work in a fight? You don't practice Taijiquan for meditation. You meditate, and to be accurate you don't meditate, you simply sit, or stand but that's another post, to improve your skills by quieting the mind. Watch the films of Ali in his prime. His speed comes from his stillness. A simple concept difficult to practice.
      As far as accuracy and precise timing for effectiveness, well you just described boxing, so I get the impression you don't really know what you're talking about here, though I agree with you 100% about this vid being utter bullshit. It is.

Real tai chi is for warfare and lethal compared to basic western boxer. They develop everything for fighting, again nothing like this video. If you haven't trained with a legit master (preferably Chen style) you won't have any idea what I'm talking about and think it's just yoga and meditation. But for those who know, they know it well. Google Chen Taiji Masters and watch some real videos before giving tai chi a bad name from this.

These are ALL found in Tai Chi but since Boxing is a sport it is limited to punches only! Boxers are amazing and if we sparred using Boxing rules then the Boxer may win! But, for general sparring or fighting, Tai Chi has many, many, many more weapons at it's disposal making it a more complete fighting system!!! :)

      Tai Chi Chuan can be VERY effective in fighting--boxers or anybody else. The problem is that it takes two or three times longer to get to high enough skill level to use it in a fight--than it does studying karate, boxing, etc. Some of the deadliest fighters have been Tai Chi Chuan masters.

      Kung Fu & Tai Chi Center w/ Jake Mace Im not sure what to say but since the video features a tai chi fighter vs a boxer, sure i can see this technique as viable because boxers dont use elbows, on the other hand i dont know how Jake Mace would react using this technique against a fighter of a different style.
      In Jujutsu (Samurai martial art) and Ninjutsu (Ninja martial art) i would use the basic step/dodge but i would make sure that my opponent wouldn't be able to use his arm again (yes that means break it) using my elbow against his elbow while my left arm pushed his wrist, i dont know if i described it well, sorry about that xD.

      Juaquin Trumpet You’re thinking of bobbing and weaving. The point of B&W is to get out of the way of the strikes without lining yourself up for another which is why boxers often go down, not laterally. If the opponent knows you’re gonna “slip” inside, they can bait you with a flinch then spin your jaw around the back of your head.

None of the six harmonies must-haves are present. It may be effective. It's hard to tell from the video and demonstration stuff. But it's not tai chi.

    The main thing that sets Tai Chi Chuan apart as a martial art is the 'sticking hands' where the practitioner makes contact and lightly sticks to the opponent (not grappling). Martial techniques like pushing, striking, standing takedowns (shui jiao), or joint locking (chin na) can originate from this 'sticking' contact. Tai Chi Chuan is a short to medium range art and the practitioner will seek to move in quickly to make constant contact with the opponent and avoid boxing or kick boxing from a distance.
    Push hands training builds the sensitivity as a precursor to martial techniques. Tai Chi Chuan practitioners also can be very good at manipulating their opponents balance when 'sticking' to them, knocking them down or making it harder for them to set up a strike.
    There are many stories of Tai Chi Chuan masters in older times taking on and beating conventional martial artists and some emperor bodyguards trained in Tai Chi Chuan. Cheng man Ching was a product of this era as a student of Yang Chengfu. He had a number of proficient karate black belt students in New York that sought out and respected his skill. It would take years of correct practice with a martial focus to get to a high level of martial skill. Tai Chi is also great for health and for complementing a 'hard' martial art.
