Taking a hit and bending in the wind so that your return shot comes around theirs or under their shot and catches them blind.

Switching out of trouble and throwing one back down the same line, making them look for you , so they end up turning into a shot.

Using your center line to your advantage and his disadvantage: (if you are square you want only one of his arms a threat to you or you lose the two handed advantage and are real open).
alright some q's if you could please answer them, thanks for the help by the way:

1. what did you mean by check with your elbows to maintain range? ive never heard of that

2. by switching out of trouble im guessing you mean if i (orthodox) jump in for a right hook and get caught i southpaw jab out, then he doesnt know if next time ill back out southpaw or ortho and catch him with shots, right?

3. so by always being to the left or right of his center line, ill only be facing one arm most of the time, so thats how i can control the lead arm and jump in i presume..

4. to constantly be out of his center line, ill have to change angles alot, so i should be practicing that on the heavy bag too correct?

5. when i get in on a guy, do i hit him with shots and move out or do i stay in his range still?


thanks again for the help, sorry if some of these questions are stupid but i want to make sure what im thinking is correct and im training correct
