(Basic defenses against a punch attack)

Redirect the punch before moving toward your opponent. Step to 11 with the left and right vertical punch to the ribs. Grab you opponents lapel and pull him downward to immobilize him as you shuffle step behind him, left inverted punch to the kidney and left inverted punch to the base of the skull.

Switch you grip to his collar or hair and his right arm, left kick to the calf and pull him down and back to the ground, drop your right knee on his ribs and maintain your hold on his right arm, left punch to the ear, right heel kick to the base of the head as you cross step away and cover.
