How Do ye Dance?

Can you guys share your thoughts on fighting on toes; how you train, its basics, circling around opponent and to left or right, escaping and staying off corners and ropes, when to shuffle, best fighters doing it...

I'm examining Lara-Canelo fight currently. Lara seems to keep both hands up when moving and jumping and shuffle.

Personally I wouldnt watch that fight to learn lateral movement. Lateral movement is supposed to be to position yourself to set up punches and being first. Lara looked scared at times. A fighter with good lateral movement and sets up his punches off of them is Keith Thurman. He moves enough to get in position and hes quick enough to get off first.

With that said brother, do your jumping rope in a boxing ring, move around the ring, and to get lighter on your feet, jump with ankle weights on...
