Hey Jack, love the article and analysis! I've been working on and studying some hand trapping, so this came in super handy! Thanks. Have you heard of eBoxing Academy? Very underrated page, the guy, a boxing coach, has many videos specifically on Long Guard, very consistent, with like drills, sparring, tape, interviews and everything. Very scientific and well-explained, drawing from other martial arts too. He goes into a lot of detail and shows a lot of examples in boxing fights about the cross hand parry/check that you talked about for Topuria. You should check it out. He's on patreon but I think he released his latest video on the subject on YouTube. Thanks again!
Good analysis. But audio keeps freezing - having this problem a lot on this site.
Topuria is one of those very rare fighters who are athletically gifted, do the basics really well AND do cool shit too.
Always a great read Slacky! 🙏🏼
you take a 2 week break and people really go off the freakin rails
Great work! This is excellent. I was going to give it another week and cancel my subscription under the assumption that your immune system finally got the worst of you. I was scared that I’d have to start listening to Mr Trugg Walg Thanks for being the greatest nuanced and detailed analyst in the game.
My goat always comes in with wisdom when we need him most. The Slacky Jay of fighting analysis on which we pray. Church of Gaethje bless.
