You don't take advantage of your height, your str8 punches are too short. You fight most of the time close range and you neglect to cover your ribs. You are wide open to body shots. You have some good flurries but you don't return your hands back to cover up. Overall it is OK but you could improve your technique. What's your experience?
Your form is very good for 8 months. One thing though that I noticed from the very beginning which you continued to do the whole time, is you don't have your guard up in the right position. Where your hands are right now if you where to get punched, it would either hit your hand and you would punch yourself in the face or two he will miss your hands and hit you directly. Always and I say always, keep you hands glued to your face. If one hand leaves to punch, the other is still on you face and doesn't leave until the other hand is back. Also keep those elbows in, your leaving yourself exposed to body blows. Those random flurries your throwing don't do anything in a real fight except expose your face and body. Build up slowly into your combos and wait for the openings. Other than that your offensive stance and punches are coming out very well. If anything talk to your coach about working on your defense a little more. p.s. Raise that bag about a foot higher if you can. Your throwing your jabs too low and because of that and you can develop bad habits. Goodluck.
Thanks for the detail info. I will keep that in mind next time i work the bag. I try to shoot the punch towards my chin level for head shots and my liver area for body blows. I do need to raise the bag though. It does feel a bit akward shooting punches on the top of the bag.
Your style looks more like Mike Tyson than Wladimir Klitschko. The question is should you be developing a style at this stage? Once you learn the fundamentals then you should experiment with fighting tall and small, pure boxing and slugging, to find out what feels most comfortable for you. But let me emphasize that the fundamentals apply to any style, and Gregsid gave you a good analysis of how you need to improve to learn the fundamentals.
style like mike tyson? explain that, you can tell that by seeing him punch the heavy bag :d everybody can look good on heavy bag
