    Default Foreman hitting the heavybag, how he did it.

    I'm on the national team as a fighter we have access to informative trainers. Remember as a kid watching videos of foreman punching the heavybag whilst having no clue how it's done. Until a trainer put me through the sequence and believe me we were taught to shoe shine the bag this is something new for us.

    Imagine that your left foot is a hinge nailed firmly to the floor.

    - push off the front foot turning the hips clockwise to 180 degrees.

    - push down and twist off the right foot.
    - hips turning counterclockwise 180 degrees.

    Foreman on the bag, was filmed before the Ali fight, messing about.
    Pain lasts a only a minute, but the memory will last forever....

    Almost a half a century before I was born. See how he turned over his back heel/twist off this should eliminate any doubts as to weither boxers push off or twist off.when one reviews the tape it's obvious that the weight transferred to the back foot and then to the lead foot. My techniquical says what I think you've long said maybe he is on this site. But the foreman technique goes as follows press down on the left foot then push off using the power of the toe. Then twist off inorder throw the weight to the hind leg a full 180 degrees turn of the hips.

    Without the back foot, you cannot generate power of the front foot, simple mechanics.

    Is movement correct big George pressing down on the front foot then twisting off?

    Its the back foot enabling him to do it.
