    Choose one stance, and practice and you will adapt easily enough. Switching is not good,

    Not always switching can be suited and good for some fighters etc Naseem Hamed,Junior Witter,Johnny Nelson,Sam Solimen etc.But not many boxing trainers/people like it.

      I was talking about switching stances in the way the poster was talking about, switching back and forth while hitting the bag. Not good practice for a beginner!

      Of course some experienced boxers can switch stances tactically and make it work for them.

        Just like everyone, I've been trained to fight with my power hand(left hand) as the backhand.

        Well, it's right, my left straight is more powerful than if I make my right hand my backhand. But, if I switch to a conventional stance, my jab is definitely stiffer and my left hook becomes alot harder.

        If I'm in my natural lefty stance, my power shots are the left straight and left hook.

        If I switch to conventional, my most effective punches are my left jab and left hook.

        Pick your weapon of choice.
