Boxing

Boxing on this site is the striking file: the hands, the stance, and the athletic base that lets a fighter throw them late. Three breakdowns carry it. Alex Pereira came up as a kickboxer before the octagon. Conor McGregor’s boxing piece isolates the skill that made the left hand famous. Islam Makhachev is here because his camp added kickboxing on top of a wrestling base, which is the other direction of travel.

Read Pereira first if you want power and a low guard that dares people in. Read McGregor’s boxing session if you want the technical work, including the yoga he uses to keep the shoulders available. The MMA hub is the wider camp, with Dillon Danis and the ground game, when boxing is only one piece of the week.

Strength and power, fight skills, and mobility all show up inside these three plans. If you are choosing a goal instead of a sport, those hubs regroup the same sessions. Grappling and wrestling sit next door for the weeks when the fight is not going to stay on the feet.

Start with Alex Pereira’s striking camp — from kickboxing phenom to UFC power.
