I agree with what sharla said, it seems like hes on the front foot too much during the right, the right hand he throws would be a lot better for it being from the back foot because its sloppy as he throws it there on the front and it will be when your dropping onto your front leg with a right anyway, nevermind when your moving your driving foot simultaniousley lol.
It seems like an ok movement to be honest, not brilliant though. the leading jab wasnt bad but the right was terrible, even if only to serve as a decoy punch, which is all it can serve for. the better results in this series of movements i would say would come from most of the weight being on the back foot as sharla said, but you will sacrifice some mobility for the stronger right hand this variation will produce while ever your throwing a right hand moving the lead foot forward at the same time you sacrifice mobility . rather than being on the front foot like he tends to prefer, moving the back foot in as he throws the right hand resulting in a major loss of power and speed in the shot through lack of drive, i wouldnt do it like this either, a good boxer would make a mess of you coming in with such a weak lead as this.
keeping the weight on the back foot allowing drive with the back foot for the right hand for a better shot while sneaking that lead foot forward just a tad for the pivot after the right would be an alternative way to do this movement and probably the way i would choose to do it after being well set up to try and cover the weaknesses it would leave you with.
I could imagine its useful in MMA where boxing might not be a brilliant standard but in boxing i dont think it would cut it, if your leading on a boxer with a 1-2 like this either way it leaves weakness and a good boxer could/will expose them either way you do it, its like leaving it to chance, just hoping your oppenent wont be good enough to expose the movement, fuck that![]()
