is it okay if the mitt guy moves backwards while taking the combinations . cause thats what happens when you hit opponent in a real match . he is not gonna stay in the same place he is gonna move backwards at least when i am coming with a jab and then combo

[@bikersoncall]

1:25 The 'right-cross' (Jack Dempsey), this is a crossing right as a counter-punch immediately following or during your opponent's left jab, over the top to the chin of opponent. It's good that Glenn calls his #2 punch, a cross and not a right-cross. I'd say that if we/you need to identify that you're crossing to the left with right hand, we/you should call out that it is the right hand crossing, or cross-right, and never 'right-cross', as right cross means something very specific according to Jack Dempsey, a great pioneer of the sport, and the G.O.A.T. , (at least from his era).

[@tonysmith4649]

Love these lessons, can you explain the right cross as a right hook?

[@GlennHolmesLA]

thx Tony, appreciate that mate. Yeah can do, it’s not a massively used punch, and I don’t use it much in my sessions, but ill plan on a vid on it yeah, thanks for the suggestion

yo Glenn - what is your thoughts on the right shoes when not actually in the ring - i.e flat soles but still good cusioning etc, ive tried bball shoes, runningshoes, chucks, indoor fotbal and boxing shoes :) In my opinion boxing shoes are good for in the ring cus its soft surface - but regular class doing in and out work and skipping takes its toll (im 90+kg) - My next try are nike SB cuz of padding and flat sole. Just wanne hear your 2 cents. Ps Amanda Sarrano was wearing Basketball shoes against Katie... they looked clunky though. (what a fight hey)

hello mate, thx for the comment. I love Nike frees myself; low heel to toe drop and lets the foot & ankle do it’s thing, ive worn em for years for boxing, training & running.

i like combos that add punch variety and doubling up the back hand is very useful skill to develop, the uppercut ideally would set up the cross. hope that helps
