Defensive evasion while keeping balance and being ready to counter is a skill that is very much underrated in mma. - For this drill, henrihooft and kamibarzini had ssorianomma and I backing up with our hands up protecting our head but feet balanced and ready to throw a knee or change levels for the takedown. - Too often, when an opponent is throwing a heavy combination, we evade and don’t stay in position to counter. It has been something I have struggled with my whole career. - This drill is simple and effective. - TAG YOUR TRAINING PARTNER and give it a try. - Focus on balanced feet, always ready to counter or change levels. Rep one, we throw a balanced knee up the middle and rep two, we change levels and penetrate for the takedown. - Keep it simple. Stay in the fight by staying in position. - Stay dangerous. - See you at the top! - #SANFORDMMA sanfordmma
