An dangerous punch but so effective when used properly. I throw the punch often and many people ask me for tips at the gym
My three tips are:
1) Do not load up and make it powerful, it's the speed and shock of the punch that makes it effective
2) Always have an exit plan other wise you will be punished. E.g. pivot out, smother, pull back... ect
3) Vary the angles when throwing the punch and vary the punch itself. E.g. Faint low then shoot the straight right hand lead upstairs. The punch has to be as unpredictable as possible.
Watch Floyd Mayweather and BHop, they both have mastered this punch.
What would your 3 tips be?
