    I understand what you're trying to say but I disagree. If you plant your feet every single time you punch, you will be slow against a fighter who moves around a lot. It doesn't matter if it takes a millisecond to go from flat to ***** because your opponent is moving instantly. But you should make the foot you are shifting the weight to when you punch flat.

    Why, you are changing the direction of the force.

    As DW poignantly said if you eliminate ankle and hip movement you eliminated power and balance now everyone is gonna wanna fight you.

    You have zero concept of what a 'throw' is, you have no understanding of movement. How do you explain a baseball pitchers ability to throw a ball? Absolutely you have to change the direction of force, to stretch and summate force through the kinetic chain. You need to violently stop the previous segment otherwise everything is just a push instead of a whip/throw.
    You're an embarrassment S****, lord help anyone who takes you seriously.

    Were not talking baseball are we, punching is a different movement than pitching, where theres nothing coming back.

    Plus the power is generated of the backfoot , the ball has left the hand, before the the front foot hits the floor. All that the front foot does, is stops him falling over, lots of force going into the ground.

    [QUrOTE=tai chi;17542287]DW is saying that the more contact you've with the floor the better your balance and stronger the punch.[/QUOTE]
    He didnt say that though mate he said everytime you punch and when the intention is to keep the opp occupied you can throw out pawing jabs whilst moving where you stay on your toes.

    If any of you guys don't realize that not every punch has to be your hardest punch then thats a dead give away that you dont know anything about boxing and have never boxed in your life.

    Again, absolutely incorrect. The same movement as boxing, the same movement you're clueless about.
