Fresh off his win in Japan, former three-division world champion Jorge Linares will present a closed-door clinic at the MMA Colombia gymnasium in Medellin, Colombia, this coming Monday, September 23rd. As part of the WBA’s effort to grow Colombian boxing, the activity will be aimed at young MMA fighters from various disciplines who want to improve in their boxing skills.
However, boxing technique is not the only thing that attendees can learn. Linares will provide learning from the emotional point of view with his experiences inside and outside the ring to help young fighters to forge the necessary character in order to become high-level athletes.
The clinic is the second in the series. A few weeks ago, world-class coach Jorge Zerpa also shared with the boys of MMA Colombia.
What is Linares teaching? How to get KTFO.
In his 51 fights, Linares was knocked out 5 times. Not a bad record. He may only be the #10 SLW in the world right now, but I think that should be enough qualification to teach MMA fighters.
Great fighter, tough as old boots. Giving back to the next generation too, a true champion
Jonathan GTFOH. Amazing how coward arm chair warriors with absolutely no credentials like yourself get off on bashing others, especially others who have spilled crimson for little men like you. There are countless boxing classes taught by decent men and women and yet we have a former world champion getting bashed here because you say he’s been knocked out lol what a piece of work you are tough guy.
well said
Even now Linares is a technical phenom. At his best, he was one of the best boxers I’ve ever seen from a technical perspective. He never had a chin but if he did, he would have been legendary. I believe he could have beaten Loma with a good chin. It would be a dream to be taught technique by one of the best technicians in the history of the game.
Linares is a brilliant technician of the sport, we need him to teach in the uk…07752515280
