Are greynotsoolds mechanics boxing or are they no longer boxing technque?

Makes no sense you need to transfer the weight to your back foot from your front foot to punch correctly.

It actually can be done, and is the way to throw a perfectly straight right hand. It's hard to describe, but by focusing on pulling the left shoulder back and dropping down on your right hip you can turn your body while your weight stays mostly on the back foot. It's a good punch, very solidly rooted, balanced and hard to see. The problem with throwing it like that is the range, it has to be set up well or you won't reach, though the hidden advantage there is you don't give your head when throwing it.

Isn't this how Mike Tyson throws the right hand?

---

Tyson? Nah he usually lunged forward with it.

---

Looks like he maybe rolling his shoulders forward or as scraps says let the shoulder hit your chin.

---

Sure but that doesn't have anything to do with where his weight is.

---

Did iron Mike fight off the front foot?

Sometimes, sometimes no. He also went southpaw sometimes, he was very dynamic.

I was told He was a converted southpaw

The question still stands did some of the greatest punchers start with their weight on the front foot while throwing the RH. As grey says?
Appears that grey is saying that while on the inside put your weight on the front foot?

Fought off both his front feet at times when in close.

Which front foot? My point; ;)

Boxing fundamentals dont change and greynotsoolds breakdowns are the ones I go to as he's usually bang on. Its more then obvious that the guy knows what he's talking about and his experience shows.
I got my golden gloves about 40 years ago and application is application. @greynotsoold is a great boxing analyst.

i think this is a version of clays anchor punch, pulling the left shoulder back and getting the torque out of your right hip,

I've been practizing grey's its good here's how I think it goes.
1.start with your weight on the left foot!

2.right heel up!

3. Push into the ground with the left foot!

4.fall unto the rear leg kicking the heel out violently right hip points towards your opponent!

5. Pull left shoulder back as hard as you can!

6.Right shoulder should be slanted toward the floor.
It's a hard punch that takes your head off the line. What I like about this punch is that I can start with my weight balanced.
