Keysi Fighting Method

I've been boxing for a while and it's starting to bore me so I tried asking around and came up with this up and coming fighting system called Keysi Fighting Method. Keysi Fighting Method or KFM originated from the streets of Spain since the 1950's and has gone mainstream just around 2000's. The Defense KFM's defense is called Pensador, or The Thinking Man. It's a 360-degree defense that assumes that there is more than one opponent. If you look at the picture I attached, you'll see that the person on the right is doing the Pensador defense as he protects himself from the other guy's strike, which is called Martillo, or The Hammer. The Offense This brings us to the offensive side of the fighting system. KFM uses punches, much like boxing, but in a slightly different manner. Since you'll be fighting most of the time on a Pensador stance, your strikes will coming from the top of your head. To transmit a lot of force from a strike, there should be considerable amount of rotation from your knees and abdominal section. KFM also uses elbows for close-quarters combat. In addition to the traditional boxing punches, you'll also be taught how to use another strike I've mentioned earlier -- Martillo or The Hammer. This strike makes sense since your strikes will be coming from above the shoulder so you can easily exert more force doing it. I can blabber about this more but I'd rather hear your opinion about it. What do you think about this fighting style? By the way, this was used in all three Batman movies by Christopher Nolan. This was Batman's main fighting style.
