I went to an american boxing gym and they told me "we don't throw punches"

[*TonyMontana*]

I assumed new york cuz i had friends from Harlem and Queens who said Favvam Bruvva, Muvva. (father, brother, and mother)

You may be right as I got it from beercules haha

Kinda amusing thread, but yeah getting the stance and footwork right is tougher than punch technique (and I never cracked either before I packed it in). Incidentally did you see the Lomachenko '2 days' episode? Lomas dad took him out of the gym at age 9 (he started at 4) for 4 freakin years and sent him to dance classes to teach him footwork. Just shows you.

shoot me a link, i'll check it out

yea man...i boxed for 2 years around ten years ago....started back training in august and im still tweeking my stance/set and guard

Im trying a more peek a boo set, more head movement, legs closer

when i was younger i was a bit quicker, more athletic, fought with a wide legged stance mimmicking roy jones lol.....ive been putting resistance bands on my legs to strengthen them, legs closer but more explosive

Bout the 6:30 mark. It's a pretty radical solution, but obviously it's paid some kind of dividends for Loma.
