this was said in a different thread. i didnt understand it there and i dont understand it here. so many great fighters do everything from the front foot and to discount them for doing it that way has to be some kind of boxing dogma from some kind of boxing religion that nobody can explain and nobody can understand.
Yes they can, but not without the backfoot as the measuring stick for distance its about posture and being bipedal, and the thing an inch above the arsehole being your centre of gravity.
Jack Dempsey had footwork on par with Ali yet in his book everything is done off the front foot. Try pivoting with your entire weight on the back foot. Mayweather was explicit about the ability to pivot. Lastly my heel doesn't have to under my armpit to move.
Im up late tonight got a visitor, former world champ staying the night. Just shown him your thread, He is pissing himself laughing. goodnight
Pain lasts a only a minute, but the memory will last forever....
