How many of you hit the bag regularly, honestly? I've been in the last year powering my left arm, Jab. I feel it will never be as good or strong as my right. But that's fine. I do not a lot of exercises to strengthen my all my ligaments and try to mimic what the elites do. I will never be as swift as Ward or Floyd's body jabs, and I think Garcia or Thurman are but a few to get better at the body Jab in the future.
First and foremost you have to be super fit, flexible to bend you entire body and retract in a defensive stance.
When I see Ward flex his left jab faint coming forward is freaking badass as he snaps their heads back. That takes a lot of force to setup. Second, that one move where Ward smashes Kovalev's body with a 2 hit combo on the waist in ONE second I think how does Ward have such speed on his torso to even do that. Loma or Rigo ain't on that level.
Why is Ward so underrated? The dude is a master at boxing! Live the moment!
