    Distancing and being able to pivot well are vital, as it is harder to go back with your weight on your back foot. Also, when fighting of your back foot, it's important to make sure your head is off the center line and that your hips and feet are positioned in a way that you create a constant threat to your opponent, so he cannot just simply rush in and catch you off balance.
