I throw a punch from my hips, what am I supposed to do right before impact?

[HughJass]

As an amateur I walked the ring and controled with a jab. I was trained as a classic boxer for many years, I fully understand the theories and applications.

But to immediately jump out of range is purely amateur, beginning amateur at that.

Once a fighter has learned to use his eyes he doesn't need to just instantly run away. Take a step to the side, dig acouple more then maybe exit with the jabs. Hit and run away is entirely European/Monty Python.

Any problems that I might have attained boxing were attained as a professional. I wanted to fight that way at the time and I did just that, pitbull aggressive, with many world class fighters. But don't think that that style was the only one I learned........ Rockin'

rockin your saying what i said now! i said prepare your feet to attack from a different angle move your head but be in just enough range to be hit and not hit fighting smart

[Rockin']

my god you talk some rockin lol , again whatever you say. my style isnt to your liking so what , all i know is that there are greats from the past who adopted a more scientific approach to the game to not get hit as much and to some prevail it worked for them , again no disrespect but your style of fighting always gets found out it "it isn't hard to beat a bully" or pressure fighter if your equipped with the right tools to do the job



jass vs rockin lol

and if the pressure fighter is quippe with the right tools all the same.

Marlon Starling never hd to run away, Thomas Hearns would land, take a side maybe slip shot and dig some. I never saw Hagler run from anything or anybody.

slap and run is what amateur boxing has turned into with the computer scoring. USA Boxing is changing to the 10 point must system. That will brng back true skills over this hit and run bull****........... Rockin'

it aint hit and run if your side stepping and moving rockin , its simply a style. did you win many tournaments as a amateur? and will you post pics of your first show?

this is redundant, you train your guys to hit and run and I'll equip mine. smart depends on the fighter and his attributes. taking a step back is fine, if there is nothing else there after landing a shot, but to just instantly jump out of the exchange without using your eyes is simply a waste.........Rockin'

but i didnt state that i said just enough to hit and not be hit (which means actually engaging with your opponent but stopping outta range lol

[Rockin']

move your head and feet to position yourself to attack from a different angle , remember just enough for you to connect and enough to keep away from trouble but if you have fast feet it shouldn't be a problem

'enough to keep away from trouble', any fighter knows that the only way to keep away from trouble is to be out of range. You are boring me now, I'm moving on..........Rockin

you bored me 3 -4 posts ago but just because you fought pro doesn't mean your right goodnight ................Rockin

[frosty-g]

"just enough for you to connect and keep out of trouble"?

man you have to welcome trouble and kick it in the nutz!

what about the follow up shot?

what about taking ground and digging

what about rolling under or slipping a shot while taking a side to deliver more.

Pitty-pat and run away. You must be a direct descendand of the Calazaghes or atleast a European.......... Rockin'

yeah Calzaghe was always known for throwing a single shot then getting out of the way...
