i gotta warn you I'm not exactly in fight condition because i broke my hand 4 weeks ago, also my punches would be slower to

punches are too ARMy..put some shoulder n hip into your punches..every punch should set up your next punch.spread your legs a little wider, and sit down on your punches..BUT NOT TO LOW..your pretty tall dont give up alot of your height..and you have pretty long arms, extend your arms out more and use that reach!bring your jab higher..if i was boxing you and you boxed me like that, all i would do is lean back and pop you with a counter right hand..your hooks are way too wide.keep workin man..and just for advice on shadowboxing, pretend your actually fighting someone..that way your not only workin out your arms, but your mind..

not not the the speed but it the tech. which you could do it slowly.

You jab should never go down because then you chin is not protect as well as you head, it should be thrown at the same level as your shoulder because you shoulder will automaticly protect you.

for the rest stuff it pretty bad, but I talking about the jab because it is the basic.


Emily Griffen was training only to us the jab for like 6 month and whent to the golden gloves and won it.

you will notice people with good jab and use it they are hard to beat examples:
Winky
Bernard Hopkins
Larry Holms
Floyd Mayweather
Wlad Klit
Ali
Kostya Tszyu
Barrera
Jermain Taylor f( pre-winky fight he was really impressive when he as using the jab because he also have long reach and after he stopped using it he looked really beatable and bad.)
Cintron ( good exmaple what a jab could do)
Thomas Hearn

and mmany many more
