Any of you Kung Fu guys box?

Hi,
You can call me boxerchick.
Any of you Kung Fu’ers also train in boxing?
Just wondering, because I met a guy who does karate at our
gym last week. He said he trained in boxing to develope better hand speed and timing.

Hi KKM !:wink:

Wrong forum, ShaolinTiger, but good call anyway.

I train at the LA boxing club here in uh… LA two or three times a week right now. I trained boxing a little bit in high school, and now I’m doing it again, partly because my sifu and others in my baji class have told me that baji resembles an inside fighter’s boxing strategy quite a bit.

I’ve even been told to watch early Tyson to get an idea of the maneuverabily of baji.

But I also train boxing just because its fun…

Good lord…
Here we go again!

I train in Chinese boxing, not Western.

Chinese boxing???
Do you mean kung fu?

yes he does..

I play around with boxers :smiley: And in sparring class sifu often wants us to focus on hand techniques aka boxing. soo, yeah

I primarily box.

I used to box & train Muay Thai but now I train Wing Chun.

it’s fun aaand it hurts

My sifu incorporates boxing drills into almost every class. Its important to learn how to handle full power punching realisticly.

I have a few dozen hours of boxing under my belt.

>>>I play around with boxers

That’s funny. Because I have seen alot of Kung Fu and Karate guys come into our gym and get played around with!

Yea…boxing…yea!

alwight! geeza, you faaking want some or wat?
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i tried boxing to help with my insecurities caused by having a tiny pen!s, but i just got beat up real bad and ended up feeling even worse.

waterdragon,
Why do you want online boxing training?
Find a good gym in your area and they will teach you
how to throw a punch.
I can’t watch you to see what your doing wrong, but I can tell you this,
It starts with your feet. Good footwork makes the boxer.
Our boxing coach has his own style of footwork I wont get into, but you got to step with each good strike.
Next is your hips and using them for power.
Contrary to what people think, it’s not all muscle. Especially for me, a female, I have to really stay relaxed and use pivots and hips for power.
The hook and uppercut are relatively the same in that you want to use footwork and body pivoting to gain power.

Just checking credentials. I HAVE had solid boxing training through the Whiting, IN gym. The same gym that Angel Manfreddy trains in.

If you would be so kind, please answer the question instead of evading it. There is nothing wrong in trying to determine if you are indeed trained or simply trolling. Thanks.
