Everything Martial Arts

Sparring Question in the Ring for the Underdog.?

Hey Im a practitioner of Mixed Martial Arts and some ground game, but being in my art college out in new mexico, away from Texas has made me rusty. Its been about a year since I have sparred and been in the ring. I’m asking advice on how to survive and if even succeed in the ring again. Im 5′3″, southpaw with a strong front side hook and left-leg round house. But my opponent is about 4 inches taller and prefers to kick more and loves the front kick which can be irritating to walk into, when dashing for a strike. Any ideas how to get around this strategically?

well im a boxer with a decent ground game so i guess u could punish him with a nicly timed punch to counter his kick cos ur obviously expecting it and maybe then try for the takedown and go straight to ground and pound or submission, if ur better on the ground that is.

Mixed Martial Artists From Texas: Mike Swick, Heath Herring, Paul Buentello, Darrill Schoonover, Nik Lentz $9.34 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Mike Swick (born June 19, 1979) is an American mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter currently competing in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) as a welterweight. He trains at American Kickboxing Academy. Swick is also another notable user of the Guillotine Choke which has most times been referred to as the “Swickotine” by Joe Rogan as well as others. Swick began his professional career in smaller shows, including early events of World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). He amassed a record of 50 before challenging Chris Leben for the WEC Middleweight Championship. He lost the fight by knockout in 45 seconds in the second round. After his first professional loss, Swick entered the first season of The Ultimate Fighter, a reality television series produced by the UFC. Swick participated as a light heavyweight on Randy Couture’s team. Ironically, Chris Leben also participated as Swick’s teammate. Leben insisted on talking about his victory over Swick, which irritated him. Swick’s first fight in the show came during the semi-finals. He faced Stephan Bonnar, but was defeated by triangle armbar at 4:55 of the first round, eliminating him from the show. At The Ultimate Fighter 1 Finale, Swick defeated Alex Schoenauer by knockout just 20 seconds into the first round, earning the nickname “Quick” from UFC announcer Mike Goldberg. Though he had lost the show, Swick signed a contract with the UFC. Swick lived up to his nickname with several quick stoppages in his subsequent fights. At UFC Ultimate Fight Night Swick stopped Gideon Ray by technical knockout in just 22 seconds. He followed up with two first-round guillotine choke submissions over Steve Vigneault and Joe Riggs at UFC 58 and UFC 60 respectively. Swick jokingly called the move his “Swick-otine”. At … More:
