How to punch going backwards/on the retreat?

Cool cheers bud!

Watch the first round of the Tapia vs Kirkland fight, Tapia did it almost perfectly, but in the first round only

Yea, like Rockn' said, that is some serious skill if you master it

punching going backwards is all in the footwork, you can make it about speed and elusiveness or you can plant and pull the power with you. either way it's a good part of the fight to be sharp with this skill.

That is brilliant. If you learn how to 'pull the power with you' you'll do well, considering how many guys fight in straight lines.

Thank you, being trained and fighting out of Detroit in the era that I did certainly has had it's advantages. Still alot of great pugilistic minds, pertaining to the art, in that city........... Rockin'
