    Default Standing like Roy Jones Jr.

    I stand in a Prime RJJ type stance... i keep my jabing hand down and keep my power hand in front of my face. I havnt found a problem with this yet because i have the quickest hands out of everyone i know. In the long run i find it easyer to move around and throw combos... wat are the downsides of this style?

    Downsides - dont know - just make sure you use your power hand to do the jabbing also

    The major downside will come when you meet a guy not impressed by fast hand. Jones Jr kept his chin in the sky, winged arm punches by the bushel, dropping his hands all the while. Too often he had too much weight on front foot. He is the most incredibly overrated "fighter" in history, woefully ill-equipped to fight a guy that came to fight and punched when roy punched. Relying on hand speed is fooling yourself. Learn to do it right, not like a cartoon character
