technical boxing question for boxers or trainers

[Re-up Gang]

guy that suggested watching winky wright is spot on. study his tapes he does it well.

also the southpaw jab can be turned into a lead hook so use that to turn your oponent when in danger and continue jabbing.
jab can be an itiretaive punch in the sense that it is trial and error . you cannot land it perfect at all times.

make adjustments and enjoy

You'll enjoy it more if you keep your hands up.

I know what you mean lefty although it's pretty hard to explain.
I was told to swap stance at my last gym I'm left handed but always boxed orthodox.
This meant I'd got a strong jab and it felt natural stepping in and moving with it because that is what I'd done for years, really relied on the jab and got told I threw it to much in sparring.
Swapping stance meant the jab was ok but the back hand was really strong one thing that took an age to get used to was the footwork, always getting caught square on and didn't seem as nimble and as billy says you need decent footwork to make sure your lead foot is outside, when it is that's when you can jab if your inside your getting parried easily. If your a novice and it's a decent gym they'll sort you out

Lead foot on the outside of your opponents (if he's orthodox), jab over the top of his lead arm.

Watch Calzaghe.

For orthodox fighters, they tend to catch a jab with their rear hand to set up a counter. Southpaws often parry with their lead arm to set up a cross (or jab in a kind of ricochet type of motion)

Mate I love Joe but a lot of the time he would do the exact opposite, he spent a lot of time exchanging or throwing combinations whilst his lead foot was inside and he was squared up.

Its what lead to him getting uppercutted by Kessler and knocked down by Mitchell, for two examples.

Yeah suppose so. I meant when he was jabbing tho, not his overall game. He was good at going over the top of his opponents lead, ain't seen it in awhile but remember it being the adjustment he made that contained Kessler in the second half
