Machine Gun punches versus slow tempo infrequent punching.

      I used to do Muay Thai before switching over to boxing, and I noticed a key difference which makes boxing training style generally a more superior style for me.

  Bruce Lee once mentioned in his book The Tao of Jeet Kune Do that

"The leg is a powerful weapon, but the man who 

can punch better will be the one who will win. "

 I personally agree with this notion, simply because boxing requires such a high volume of punches that the fighter will develop his striking skills far more rapidly than a fighter who is concerned with more limbs ( knees elbows, kicks etc)

   

   In this article I am not concerned with which style is superior, because every style has is limitations and advantages. . I am bringing your attention to the production of punches in each session. In a Muay Thai session, unless your coach is very boxing minded, you will spend a 75% of your time on kicks, knees and elbows.w

 To become an expert with your fists and to walk in the foot steps of boxing gods, then you must spend the majority on producing punches every training session. 

 

At the end of the day, you got to ask yourself, how any punches did you throw today, because you cannot wish for it for it more than you work for it.
