    You move pretty good, and there are a number of things that you do well. Here's three you might want to change:
    First, a lot of the times when you jab, especially when you seem to be really coming of the back foot to jab, your right glove moves out and away from your face. A guy that is paying attention will jab when you jab, and you'll eat a lot of stiff, straight left hands that way. Also, it doesn't make your right hand harder, faster or anything else to throw it from out there. Just shhot it, don't cock it like that.
    Second, many times, when you throw the right hand, you finish by bringing your right foot forward, so that you are squared up. Like a pitcher in baseball. That will get you timed and countered, real hard, with right hands. I think maybe that your feet are too far apart and this is a balance issue. Shorten your stance and you can slide your right foot a couple inches to the right, to throw the hook, or slide it way right and shift your weight over that foot to 'weave' you out of the way.
    Third, the way you lean forward in close makes you a target for uppercuts. He hit you with a couple early in the video, then didn't go back to it until the end, but he landed most all of them he threw. Turn your left shoulder into him and he can't hit you with those.

    Dunno if anyone has mentioned this but when you throw your jab you throw your right hand the other way

    Everyone has different phylosophies i know but in our gym its drilled into you to keep your hands up

    Yours are down a lot, not that thats wrong tho you just wouldnt be allowed to do it at our gym

    Maybe it is just me, but i don“t like where your weight is. Thats why you stay square, your right is not good and you loose your reach advantage. On top of this you are left only with the counter left hook wich is good when you are pushed back and you go not intentionaly on your back foot where you are supposed to be at the begining... Examples 1:11 good hook after you are pushed back and you are on your back leg. 1:39 bad hook you are on your front leg. If this is your only wapon it is easy to expect it...

    The smallest problem with the jab is that you are going to eat counter jabs. they won't KO you.
    For me there are two oder problems
    1. you go, squared with your head in the center(because of the weight ), to your left while jabing and dropping the hand which is crying for right crosses
    2. When you pull the right hand you are opend for counter left hooks and uppercuts

    What do you want to accomplish with this movement on the ropes? You are too squared and your weight is too much infront thats why you can't use the left side for protection. Your left sholder is too far away and is evan lower than your right sholder... I see that you try to move yourself with the shots, but you don't try to clinch or to counter or to smuder him. If he finds his range and stays there your are in trouble.

    But on oder hand you have nice condition. Keep it up
