Interesting CC hitmandonny and Lord Harris

Plenty there to think about and I guess I'm more into trying it out than reading the theory initially at least so I'll do that some time when I don't have any bouts coming up to stress about

I guess I have small hands so I find that I manage to get my punches through most guards whether or not my fist is horizontal or vertical. I'd imagine a jab thrown with vertical fist might allow you to really load up on a cross following it though.

One of my coaches gets me to throw a long uppercut/jab with palm up sometimes. Seems to work well used occasionally when an opponent is expecting the normal jab. It's not seen or parried quite so easily.

I guess as a midget usually sparring bigger or stronger people I like to move back and counter a lot so I like to use a strong jab but perhaps I'll try the palm facing in jab when I really want to unload a cross or overhand.
