SAMI-X Panantukan

Panantukan, also known as Filipino Boxing or Filipino Dirty Boxing, is a martial art that originated in the Philippines. It was traditionally used as a form of self-defense by Filipino warriors and is a form of hand-to-hand combat that emphasizes the use of punches, strikes, and elbow strikes, as well as the use of grappling and trapping techniques. The techniques used in Panantukan are designed to be effective in real-life situations, making it a practical and efficient martial art.

One of the defining characteristics of Panantukan is its emphasis on close-range combat. Fighters of the art are trained to fight in tight spaces, using their body weight and momentum to generate power in their strikes. Panantukan also places a strong emphasis on footwork and body positioning, allowing fighters to move in and out of range and effectively evade attacks.
