One defensive techniques we went over is the Philly Shell which was made famous by arguable the best defensive fighter Floyd “Money” Mayweather. The Basic concept of the Philly Shell; Your left hand is held just above the waist, around stomach-height, held across the midsection so that your left fist is nearly touching your right elbow.

Your right hand is held high, you should be easily able to hold your chin between your thumb and pointer finger. Your elbow should be a couple of inches from the right of your belly button and very tight to your body. Make sure you bury your chin in your left shoulder and roll it slightly forward to protect your chin. Now your stance should be very “Sideways” , and you should carry your back foot somewhat sideways.

That is the basic stance of the Philly Shell Defense, now check out this video to see how its used![yframe url=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK9en6g9JTQ’]
