I know but you can slip onto the outside of a jab and deliver a right uppercut without being on the line of opponents short right
As soon as you start the uppercut, you enter the line of the right hand. The motion will move you into it. Thats what Shane was warning of. Thats what makes it so risky.
What you're describing is slipping a jab and throwing an uppercut without moving whatsoever. Understand that what you are proposing is ridiculous. You have to turn into the punch to throw it. Thats the danger.
The interesting thing is neither of us have any idea of the others experience or lack of in boxing. My opinion if you've slipped outside the jab correctly you can whip the uppercut without coming across the line. It's all irrelevant as AJ was on the centre line throwing off his jab, out of range with his hands down
Theoretically you would have to arm punch and not get much of your body into it. In reality Joshua heaves his whole entire body into his uppercut. So its a dangerous move plus his hands are trained into him by Davison to be down. IMO Davison has to be more aware of the danger in this instruction and that he was not is negligence.
I agree with 99% of what your saying which makes us having a debate odd, ultimately the advice was dangerous, and got him ko'd. On the technicalities we slightly disagree but without a practical demonstration we will have to agree to do so
The Don Charles interview is very good This content is protected He's not wrong. AJ lacks some fundamentals and Ben Davison has no clue.
No real opinion of him as a trainer but the little gay run he did to Joshua on the floor was enough for me.
In no other sport could a blatant chancer like Davison have made himself a multi-millionaire. Credit to him for blagging it this far, but any manager who allows their fighter anywhere near him from now on deserve all they get.
