An African American fighting system of blocking punches with your forearm and elbows. Dating back to when slaves were first institutionalized evolving in the ghetto's and prisons of America, having been influenced by uprocking (break dancing), pimps and boxers. Jack Johnson, the first black heavyweight, was known as one of boxing's greatest defensive fighters. Having fought on what was known as the Citlin Circuit, where ten black men were blindfolded and the last one standing being the winner. Jack Johnson would win these fights and in doing so discovered a science in blocking punches with his elbows. Since a strong defense is better than a strong offense, 52 blocks uses its defense as its offense by catching punches on the elbows, which can seriously injure the hand. It also uses an array of feints so you can set up an opportunity to punch or strike with the elbow. Slaps have also been known to be used. Glass Man, Mother Dear, Fat Cat, Penguine and True-God are the most known to have developed excellence with this system. |
