JerryLove Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 I frown on choosing to go to the floor... I frown even more on choosing to go to the floor *before* you've started the grapple. https://www.clearsilat.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warp Spider Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 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.

BLH28 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 this may sound incredibly lame, but... what is a haymaker punch and how do you do it? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treebranch Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 In the ring go to the floor if you can grapple, why not? If you are on the street you're just plain stupid.

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. Paladin - A holy beat down in the name of God! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymry Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 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.

theswarm Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treebranch Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 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.

Rank7 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 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.
