I start boxing at my boxing gym on 1/5/19 for 6 months. Plan to fight masters at either 152 or 165 weight class (I'm 179 lbs now). You look good on the bag. Only advice is to focus on speed. Throw double, triple jabs and combinations.
    Thanks for the advice, just got to keep on grinding. Good luck!

      Jab, feint/slip, hook/right, and turn/reset, etc.

      Also, throw some jabs with head movement to dodge opponent's jab
      Good stuff! I'll try to incorporate a few more feints, especially during combinations. Cheers

            Agreed. Need to get back to my actual boxing gym. Trying to cut some weight before I walk through them doors again though!
