Why isnt Jack Dempseys "shoulder swirl" taught in modern boxing gyms?

[AlexKid]

Instead they teach put the cigarette out, to get the hips working.

Why did they decide to abandon the shoulder swirl (where you try to draw a circle in the air with your shoulders)

Just curious as to why and how it changed

Shoulder whirl, dummy.

And Dempsey didn't see fit to pass on his knowledge to other fighters for the most part so that knowledge is now lost. The best one can do is read his book, try out what it says, and hope that it's a good approximation of the real thing.

Alex got the name confused with what Ice Cream he was eating.

Damn shame. Imagine the impact it would have on boxing technique.

Dempsey's situation is unique. He learned lot of his fighting from street fights.

If everything he did was successfully passed on, there'd be a greater variety in boxing

I hope I can be excused, given who the OP is.

Bcz Mike Tyson did it on TV, that cigarette thing.

[Da Pimper]

Bought his book and tried it.

A lot of techniques of Dempseys are outdated.
