Ryan Garcia's Speed Explained - Pros & Cons - Technique Breakdown

Power of The Pros: http://www.modernmartialartist.com/downloads/power-of-the-pros/ Ryan Garcia is an up and coming young boxer with blazing fast hands. As a pro, he’s amassed a string of exiting KO’s at the age of 19. His style has a lot of risks, but up until now, it’s been paying off.

One of the things that makes Garcia interesting is that he discards of lot of tried and true defensive techniques. But, because Garcia is winning because of these modifications, not in spite of them, I feel he’s a great example to look at what happens when a fighter successfully emphasizes one aspect of their game over all others.

After all, while most people can get decent speed drilling against bags and pads in order to build accuracy, or just to show off, very few are able to keep these body mechanics and find success in the ring.

Now of course Ryan has above average reflexes and most likely possesses a lot of fast twitch muscle fibers, making him naturally fast.

But his punching style is also drastically different from the majority of professional boxers, and a lot of that relates to ease of movement, something very similar to economy of motion.
