Defense against multiple jabs?

Hey guys i was training with one of my friends that does boxing, he asked me to show him how effective wing chun is against boxing style, so he jabbed and i nailed him like 6 times but when he did multiple jabs i had more trouble. Any thoughts?

Jam him…

Is the above post not a waste of bandwidth?

Jab

Intercept the first jab with an attack of your own (lin sil die dar), and then keep putting it to him.

If you are hitting him when his arm is still extended, he shouldn’t be able to get the second one off.

I personally have a lot of luck with a split entry against the jab.

jab’s gonna recoil

why not bui ji into it, follow it back and tie it up? stick with that hand and its no longer effective. make him depend on the other hand, then tie that one up too.

then, move in and demo the chump!!

One possibility

Hi,

We’ve just added a technique on our site that shows one way we practice against jabs. Its just one way.

Meng Shuo’s right …

Watch any pro boxer. They almost never launch a single jab. So take into consideration that a ‘boxer’ will probably pump out three or four solid, quick jabs. And chances are if you try a technique on the first jab, they’ll recoil too quick and punch you in the face. ouch.

Wing Chun is not for “sparring”. FIGHT HIM!..Kick,punch,grab,elbow,bui sau… :mad:

Throw a lead hook over his jab.

Throw a lead hook over opponent’s jab?

What if the opponent is taller and has a longer reach?

Control the lead arm

My sifu will imitate boxing style (he has experience) when we spar. I find that I have to tan or pak his jab and then move in immediately. When he withdraws the arm it’s time to control the elbow. I don’t agree that you should throw a hook in response - straight beats curve, it is more direct. Here’s one I haven’t tried in sparring due to the large gloves we use: outer gate punch. Your straight punch comes slightly over his straight punch, forcing his arm down and landing a blow of your own in one motion. -FJ

Sorry been busy

Whipping Hand,

Are you referring to Rogues post in particular and if so is it the image or what he posted?

I have been unable to deveote as much time to the forum lately and am also trying to give everyoen a little more lattitude. If things start to go downhill then I will step in but so far it looks like everyoen is doing okay. For now.

As always feel free to e-mail me directly.

Peace,

Dave

Re: Taller and longer reach

I cannot comment to that within the realm of Wing Chun, as my knowledge of the style is limited.

However, there are many counters. The simplest, IMO, is a lead leg kick to the ribs.

Hi Lyle,

I agree with your follow up response. One of the techniques we’ve put up on our site deals with it just as you surmised ;).

Wing Chun School NYC and navigate to teh techniques section. The one I’m referring to is the 3rd technique (vs Jab) on the first row.

Cheers,

Jeff, I don’t know how good a boxer your friend is, but most don’t throw a jab and not follow it up, was he holding back? One thing you could try would be to move to his outside if he’s jabbing. Boxers are very good at fighting square on to someone and a good one will know how to work someone when in close or within the clinch.

Just be careful not to concentrate too much on that jab, it may be just the first shot of a nasty combination.

boxing Jabs

When sparring or fighting with a boxer timing is very important. You can trap and punch first before he throws his jab out if you are quick enough. Hopefully you would trap him on his blind side so that it would make it harder for him to hit you with a right cross after the jab. When you trap him you want to make sure that you trap his left jab well enough so that he won’t be able to jab again. Once you trap and punch you have to give him a sensory overload so that he can play the defensive role and not the attacking role. You can also give him a low staight kick to his knee cap, or shin. This would cause distraction and may give you the time you need to close in the gap so that you can trap him and hit him. The kick if done correctly can either break his boxing structure, confuse him, create time or break his legs. You can also sweep the hell out of him if he’s using a boxing stance. When you’re practising with a friend you don’t want to hurt him but you also want to show him that wing chun is very effective. You have to decide do you want to hurt him, show him or spar with him. Remember he’s testing you out most likely he ain’t pulling no punches. The challenge is to use your wing chun techniques, footwork, structure and theory agaisnt a boxer. If done correctly you can have the edge!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

dear rogue:

Yeah my friend had a good jab, we weren’t really sparring, he just wanted to show my how effective wing chun was, i gained his respect very quickly :slight_smile:

I have a very hard time sparring my friends cause i don’t want to hurt them, and i’m also missing my right leg, so that makes it harder. I’ve been in 2 fights, and dropped the dudes fast, but fighting is not sparring really, there are no rules on the street.

…who me? If so whats wrong with that? (i read your other post but it doesn’t say why)

The way i see it, if your going forward all the time..lets say you meet the jab with a tan sau (easily converts to a punch) and then the boxer can, as you say, go for his combinations. But as soon as his hand goes back from the initial ajb…you are still going forward (mentally and physically), so you hand springs forward and BAM! you hit him. I have tried this in training and have had success. What fault do you see in this?
