True or false most pro boxers dont pivot the foot they push off it?

You have completely lost me,

Maybe I lost myself lol. Okay if you're throwing an uppercut lifting both heels coming onto the ball of your front foot then that means.I should be able to lift my back leg up why because I'm on the ball of my front foot right?

But we are not trying to put the head forward, that wont generate power or purpose of what we are aiming for.

No that wasn't my question! No... Repeat I should be able to lift my back leg if I'm on the ball of my front foot right!

If thats the intention I suppose you can, but if the Heads telling you not to you cant. Body transports the head to where it wants to go,it cannot protect itself.

So you are fighting of the front foot!?

No of the back foot, thats your distance, its that what puts you where you should be in relative safety. Think the problem is commentators watching someone going forward says he is on the front foot now, when in fact he is not, they interpret it that way as a term of reference.

Right! Call to your attention BOXING lesson 5 figure 1. " fighting against a taller opponent begin by moving the front knee forward first and bending the knees. Some may see this as a crouched stance but nevertheless as long as the back is straight he is still on his back leg correct!? How else would he slip inside to get to throw punches

try moving both feet, simple and turning the foot to where you want to be.

Right! That is how my coach does it to the letter T. However I find it difficult to slip under the punch when fighting against taller opponents the other issue is moving in with two feet =clinching. However in lesson 5 figure 1 it's easier to get under the punches while still being on my rear foot. Wouldn't you agree that moving in with two feet =clinching?

If you over think in the ring like you do in here you are going to become so confused and such a stilted fighter.

Ok have a shot at answering your own question here:
If you move in using two feet to get in there and your hands are behind your back will you be clinching?

[Andre]

Extending that:

Have you ever moved inside someones guard with both feet push off the rear land the front foot adjust the rear foot (specially against a taller longer reaching opponent) and been smashing them up through the openings they leave between their arms as they react to you?

Or make em react even more: a light shove on an elbow as you go in makes their arm react the other way and you are in there and fire up the other side of that arm.

All require two feet, all are moving inside, no grappling involved.

Or if both feet are moving, you can move anywhere, if they are in the right position.

5:30pm gym opens first exercise is the pendulum two feet in and two feet back out back and forth in out for 15 minutes. Out off all the fighters in the club not one us does this technique eventhough we are ordered to come in with both feet.
Danger is
1.clinching
2.getting hit going out.
3.(standup fighter)hard to keep the head down.poor DEFENSE against hooks.
4.hard to get flurries off while standing up straight.
5.poor lateral movement.
6.inability to bob and weave.
