It is so much freer to punch correctly from that position.
That bullshit about keeping your gloves up by your chin is a habit that will slow down punches.
Ive always been of the mind and the style where my hands interrupt the punch on the way in and launch from below shoulder level. The glove up next to your head stuff is crap in my world unless you are hemmed in and need to protect your temples as you duck under to escape out sideways ,but they sure as hell are not staying up there.
