You can use it as you switch going back, not a good idea going forward. Its handy going back.

I agree; Chris mentioned above that to bring the back foot forward puts it into play but thats a hell of a commitment if your on the chase and you can do that with saftey ,good luck to you, cause you're either real good or got lucky.
Cause when you switch theres a brief opening straight down your pipe.
Like you mention Scrap; you take the left foot back and throw the right rear straight which then becomes the front hand.
Thats a safe way to switch cause you are taking your head out of range and because you do it on their overcommited or lunging left jab your rear arm can be unseen by them.
Ive even checked a long left with my left glove at my chin on the half way point and as my left lands back attacked under their left arm into the elbow point with my right like a 45% rising uppercut then stepped right away fromtheir right hand and gone in with a double hook. Its a nasty move if they are vertical fisted, think about it, you can lock their arm.You can also widen your stance as you land and throw aright bomb over the top of it and then get out of there.
If you've switched out of trouble a few times and they then follow you wholly committed trying to get the opening you create you can knowingly land 3/4 square and turn your feet on a 45% angle so your right hip is behind your shot and it comes like a heat seeking missile interrupting their movement.Takes alot of practice, in mma you can land a flat palm into their face like a top sign or straight fingers to the throaght then strike for real as they react.
I'll use it Andre, when switching up to set up a diff look counter. I used to switch up alot more then I do know, but did it fairly regularly. Just switch quickly, jabbing with the right in the process (soon as left foot is behind obv), more as a range finder to set up a hard straight left/overhand/or left hook while moving both backwards and to the right. That prob sounds more complicated then it really is. I suppose it could be dangerous, but it never really gave a lot of probs as do it going backwards before a pivot to engage the left.
Dunno. I think if you spend a lot of time working out of both sides in sparring the transition becomes less dangerous and more natural.
Vitali Klitschko uses a right "jab" sometimes...he uses it when he's not sitting down on the punch or triples up on the right hand just trying to score points and open up a defense...he usually follows it up with one of those golfing right uppercuts.
