Jab (Lead Leg Angling Right)->Cross




Following from Jack Slack's Greatest Strikers: The Offensive Genius of Roy Jones Jr.
One of Jones' uglier but ultimately extremely effective techniques was jumping off to the right as he jabbed and then coming back in with his right hand. This he did extremely well against southpaws as you can see below.


Jumping off to the right with a jab against an opponent who is not acting the aggressor is actually pretty difficult to do and you don't see it all that often. Muhammad Ali used it against Cleveland Williams and Sonny Liston liked to do it a lot, but it often involves crossing one's feet over to move enough distance to the side to have any effect. Jones' footwork was both explosive and sublime.

Obviously there is a great deal more to say about Roy Jones' game but I simply want to brush on the greatness of the fighters I am looking at in this series, hopefully whetting readers appetites for more detailed analysis at a later date.

Directional (Angular) Attacks


Step Over 
(Can follow a lead or rear hand punch and follow up punch can be a lead or rear hand)
Ex. Jab, Cross-> Step Over-> Cross *Trevor Wittman Example 

Hip Carry (Front Foot Pivot Back
(Can follow a lead or rear hand punch and follow up punch can be a lead or rear hand)
Ex. Jab, Cross-> Hip Carry *Trevor Wittman Example

Drill: Jab, Cross->Step Over->Jab, Cross->Hip Carry-> Jab, Cross


Step & Slide L. ->Cross

Cross (Lead Leg Angling Left)->Shift Cross

Jab (Lead Leg Angling Right)->Cross

Lead Hook->Rear Low Round Kick

Two concepts make this a good combination:
1) High line to low line - attacking high causes your opponent to focus on protecting their head and distracts their attention away from their lower body.
2) Shifting their weight - the idea is to hit hard enough with the hook (whether it lands or he blocks) to shift the opponents weight onto his lead leg. This in turn makes it more difficult for the opponent to defend against the on coming round kick.

As leading with a hook is riskier, it may be a good idea to precede the combo with a feint.

Inside Trip from Over-Under Clinch

Overhook Side
*example
*example

Underhook Side

Jab->Cross->Rear Round Kick


Cross->High Rear Round Kick

  • -This is good combination against someone that parries punches. When your opponent parries your cross, it is difficult for them to effectively bring their arm back into position to deal with the quickly approaching round kick. Rory MacDonald used this a number of times against Robbie Lawler.


  • Also a good combo against someone that slips and bobs. If the opponent slips or bobs to the outside of the cross they are moving into the round kick.

Parry (Inside Deflection)

Parrying Straight Punches
Using the palm or forearm to deflect straight punches to the side. Don't over parry as it leaves you open to follow up punches. Use only the necessary amount of motion to redirect the punch.

Though nothing is written in stone, you generally want to use the hand which is on the outside of the opponents punch as it leaves you less susceptible to a follow up strike from the opposite hand. So parry opponents right hand with your left hand. Parry opponents left hand with your right. 

-Lead Hand Parry
-Rear Hand Parry


You can also use your forearms or elbows to parry straight punches to the body.
 *Tutorial@1:01 



Parrying Straight Kicks
-Parry with forearms or elbows high front kicks in the same manner you would a punch. 


Sweeping Parries Against Straight Kicks
-With a circular motion, swing your arm down, deflecting the opponents kick with your palm or inside wrist away from your body. 
-Generally it is best to deflect the kick in a way which moves you to the outside of their body. WhiParry their right kick with your right arm and their left kick with your left arm. 
Footwork
-Can stay positioned in front by slightly moving back when deflecting the kick or bellying out your midsection. 
-Can also move to the side when deflecting the kick. When parrying with left arm, step to the right. When parrying with the right arm, step to the left. Step to the side and pivot to setup some counter strikes.
