That could be effective, if you practice moving alot. (IE rolling, getting back up, etc.) However, I would prefer double leg, single leg, or spear over a sweep if I was going to try to take a person to the ground.

In the ring go to the floor if you can grapple, why not? If you are on the street you're just plain stupid.

this may sound incredibly lame, but... what is a haymaker punch and how do you do it? thanks.

 

A haymaker is basically just winding up and swinging your hips while extending your fist. It's pretty slow and highly telegraphed, but it's not as bad as some moves, I guess. More or less you just wind up and absolutely clobber the guy.

Haymakers telegraph. They are big loose hooking blows. Probably the most common attack there is.

 

Personally I would jam the shoulder of the striking arm and strike, or just throw a linear punch. Linear punches are faster than circular punches.

its a haymaker

 

we can't really assume anything because of course it's situation by situation, however,

 

upon seeing the windup of a haymaker we immediately know which arm and what path it's taking.

 

You can do alot with that kind of information -

 

haymakers require alot of area to cover so if you stepped in on their opposing side and brought the fight to extremely close range using whatever you felt necessary then I imagine that'd do ok

If you move too early it might track you. If you move too late, well you know what would happen. If you move at the last instant they think they got you and you are really in a good position to do what you want if you know what to do from there. Timing is so important in any fighting art.

If your fast and the haymaker is slow you can trap him with a step to the outside. then work on kicking his kneecaps then end with one of YOUR haymakers.
