    It alway's freaks me out how 99% of the time fighter's always move clockwise.

    I was a left handed orthodox and i was always moving to my right, just felt more comfortable.

    Pro's/Am's, alway's usually clockwise.

    They will step left and right sure but general movement is clockwise.

    I'm a right-handed orthodox and I prefer moving counter-clockwise. I feel like I can drag my lead foot along a lot faster and change direction off of my right foot better. I work on moving clockwise but I feel faster and more secure on the backfoot and moving counter clockwise.

    Aye i liked to counter and box with them coming onto me, which helped the anti clockwise thing. Eg. im dictating where they are going.

    What is your height and weight ?

    I've noticed that about myself and thats actually one of the things I make sure I work on. Because when I get in the ring with someone GOOD, they aern't just moving one way. HaHa.

    I mix it up most of the time because I'm not just moving I'm looking for an angle.
