    First off; nice job. Your style is more pro than amateur. You have a good base to work off of. That said here is some constructive criticism.

    Stop grunting. Your giving an audio queue to your opponent of your punching patterns. In any fight longer than 3 rounds your opponent will be able to counter/time you very easily. Also, If your grunting that means you aren't clenching your mouthpiece which is a sure fire way of getting KTFO, so be careful.

    Your jab is pretty decent but you are pulling your strong hand back when you fire that jab. You have to "Hold the phone" when you shoot that jab...innother words keep your power hand up at your face when jabbing. Be defensive whe being offensive.

    In addition, try and get in the habit of planting your back foot before firing. Sometimes when you move around as much as you do we can fall into the bad habit of not planting thus pitty-patting our opponent but not doing damage. See vintage Floyd or Morales clips to see how to do it properly.

    That's all I've got...you look good though, keep it up and post another clip in a couple of weeks to track your improvement.

    Good luck!

            most am's throw their punches similar to calzaghe..you know those point scoring punches..you were fighting more to do damage and setting up combos taking your time-thats the pro style

                  An amatuer style is very textbook...sort of Euro. Elbows tucked shooting jabs from a standstill position, tucking chin and covering up to figure out the opponent's punching pattern. You have more of a Philly pro style. Hands down, Alot of movement, Alot of combos, stepping back and "seeing your work". ****m calls it swimming without getting wet. You will either confuse the crap out if your opponent, or get timed very easily. The reason guys like Toney, Floyd, Dawson, B-Hop are so good at it is because theybarent always stepping back and/or to the side. They also mastered stepping forward into a punch to muffle it. Once you learn that part you'll be close to being good at it. Amatuers are more about planting and landing total clean punches, your style is hit and don't get hit back, except right now you use your legs to get away. Once you learn to weave and roll with the punch as well as step into an attack with your hips and shoulders you will be pretty good. The tools are there IMHO. Hope this helps.
