Did iron Mike fight off the front foot?Sure but that doesn't have anything to do with where his weight is.Looks like he maybe rolling his shoulders forward or as scraps says let the shoulder hit your chin.Tyson? Nah he usually lunged forward with it.Isn't this how Mike Tyson throws the right hand?It actually can be done, and is the way to throw a perfectly straight right hand. It's hard to describe, but by focusing on pulling the left shoulder back and dropping down on your right hip you can turn your body while your weight stays mostly on the back foot. It's a good punch, very solidly rooted, balanced and hard to see. The problem with throwing it like that is the range, it has to be set up well or you won't reach, though the hidden advantage there is you don't give your head when throwing it.
