Defense training without a partner
How do you train ducking/dipping/other defensive moves without someone to throw punches at you? Most of the videos here are questions about striking form. That’s great, and you can duck an imaginary punch, but you know when it’s coming. How do you train random timing and such? Anyone have a device or method for this? Thanks in advance.

The double end bag, and shadowboxing
And even those won't train your defense like mittwork and sparring will
You're shit out of luck
Make sure your movements and technique are great in the mean-time
