Russian Boxing Soviet USSR - Analysis

Thank you for this breakdown so so much. Before doing my own research and putting two-and-two together, I didn't realise why my boxing looked so different from others in different gyms in my area. My first coach that taught fundamentals was indeed an older Russian man who was an amateur fighter in USSR and he taught us the pendulum footwork and Soviet school boxing. I had no idea why/when/how/what we were doing until very recently. Thank you!

Boxing is such a beautiful sport my goodness.

Red Shirt moves exactly like Willie Pep in those Footwork Highlight videos, the Switches into southpaw, check hooks, shifting his Feet, Not necessarily attacking or defending like pep but literally just “moving” like him, the whole Swag & demeanor overall

Very informative and improves my fight iq! Love the soviet boxing style

Thank you for this video. I will use this for my fighters in technique sparring : )

Thank you! I’ve always been fascinated with Soviet style. Great breakdown I appreciate it.

Please upload more analysis!! This is very helpful. Thank you

Nice video. Thanks.

Thanks very nice explanation

Hi am Russian American on the TMT basically the American style versus the Russian style differences are this in the American style it’s designed for defense in speed and your hands. Movements are different in the Russian style. You have the high in Tigard and you stick and move, and you stick with the job.Then go with a power punch Critics of the Russian style say it’s boring, but if you look at the top fighters right now, the Russian style seems to be dominating. I like to remind these critics, and my fellow boxers who fall into this trap of changing their style . It is better to win ugly than lose pretty. Yes, the Russian style is boring to watch at times but it is effective and there’s a reason why it is popular. Someone here mentioned Lomachenko can we really call Lima’s style Russian? I say no more Eastern European style. Difference is you use the jab to set up your power punches and it is pretty much all attack. Russian style you do phase in and phase out so there is some defense involved just not as much as American. I say Russian style is the perfect blend between Eastern European all attack and American defensive- counter style . I also have friends who are Mexican now Mexican style of boxing you’re right it’s just who can take more punishment As for 🇨🇺 very similar to American style, defense, counter and utilize your footwork It is actually very similar to American style of boxing.

Soviet school of boxing is the best school

Great analysis!!

Very nice

Currently learning soviet style of boxing Great analysis 👍

The left hand after the straight right is effective as a defensive out movement after a combo as well

Counter punching is very common in Cuban boxing, that is true. I am Cuban and I like to watch Russian and former Soviet countries boxers.

This is really good bro! I'm always interested in the Soviet boxing school especially their bouncy footwork and unique way to throw punches. Can you make a video on how to train those techniques? Or perhaps there are already some videos on Youtube?

Это мой любимый стиль и я Мексиканец/ Американец

that’s so beautiful

Very interesting 🤔
