a lot of people speak of Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s defensive genuis, but let’s not forget about Pernell Sweet pea Whitaker who in his career rarely lost “rounds” much less fights. In my opinion he did not hit as hard as PBF, BUT interms of defensive wizardry, he was every bit as good-if not better- than Money Mayweather. I’ve posted a highlight video of Sweet Pea, and you be the judge.

Happy Holidays all from Kru Training in Bergenfield NJ! The question often comes up: “What are the best arts one must be proficient in to be a succesful in MMA? There are a myriad of combative arts that are available in which one can trainin in, but in my humble opinion, the 4 MUST arts are:

1. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu -to be able to remain offensive should the fight hit the mat, while maintaining a smart defense.
2. Muay Thai -for it’s diverse 8 points of attack covering the kicking, striking, and clinch ranges.
3. Boxing -kicks are longer and generaly stronger than punches, BUT most knockouts are the product of punches. The easiest most natural weapons the human body has IMO.
4. Either Greco Roman Wrestling or Freestyle wrestling-a strong base in wrestling will enable you to dictate where you want the fight to take place, whether defending the takedown or shooting in for the takedown-wrestling is king.
