The FIRST Ever Boxing Workshop with a WBC Silver Champion Held in CHENNAI!
On May 8th, we had the honour of conducting a workshop with the Russian superstar Dmitry Kudryashov at the Kalaignar Centenary Boxing Academy in Chennai.
This event was held in collaboration with the Russian House and SDAT. It was a massive success, marking the first of its kind in Chennai.
We had the opportunity to dive into Dmitry’s warm-up routine, followed by a breakdown of the punch that has dropped 90 opponents—The Left Hook. He taught us how he sets it up, and we were all amazed at how a basic, simple movement, when drilled to perfection, can become so effective. The difference between our execution and his was like night and day.
Dmitry also emphasized the importance of using our legs and explained how twisting the hips is key to generating explosive power. While most of us understand this concept theoretically, having a world-class boxer who fought for the WBC Cruiserweight Title in 2017 demonstrate it firsthand felt like something out of a storybook.
He then introduced us to a punch called The Jolt, offering an in-depth explanation of when and how to use it. He also showed us how to systematically break down an opponent who is backed against the ropes but still defensively aware.
He highlighted the body's vulnerable areas such as the solar plexus and liver, and demonstrated how to land punishing blows to these targets using various combinations.
Finally, Dmitry graciously answered a series of questions from our pugilists, such as:
How to fight a taller opponent
The different types of hooks in boxing
How to deal with a dancing (mobile) opponent
At the end, each of us had the chance to stand next to him, take a personal photo, and receive a signed autograph card!
We, Sanmitra Mekala and Bhuvanesh Narayanan, are fully devoted to the sport of boxing, and we promise to continue delivering high-quality content and a sea of knowledge to our community!
