Besides that I don't think he can go full at it until he's 14 just like Scrap said. I've heard of a lot of kids pushed into boxing at an early age and many of the burn out in their teens or just lose interest. Of course there's a few exceptions but their fathers sacrificed what it meant to be a father so they could be a "coach."
He knows how to throw the one and two. He keep his led foot facing me and his back foot planted so he can push off. Im just working on that with him. Im not going to get into the foot work tilll later. He can throw throw the one two and that is about it. We live in a tough area and he is going to need how to defend himself. He is extreamly strong for his age. So at least he has that.
