How to get in the pocket without eating shots?

U cant be too predictable and must be a little patient. once u get to the inside, dont stay there long where he could pick his shots, land u combos then get out and repeat, remmember to never let ur head be an easy target, always move it to the side or duck it. Here are some of the best examples

Henry Armstrong, comes in with half his body behind a jab and moves his head to the right

James Toney, rolls punches on the insdide with his left soulder and counters with short punches or punches between his opponents wide punches

Joe Frazier, used his infamous bob and weave style to get in your face with out eating shots, that style is highly recommended for shorter fighters

Roman Gonzalez, the best at cutting off the ring today, has great headmovement on the inside and uses his lead hand to be more efficient and sets up combos with his short and accurate left hands

Julio Cesar Chavez Sr, also great headmovement, always punches to the body early to weaken his opponent and get them late.

Leo Santa Cruz, uses a jab to get in, once inside he uses the high guard to block punches with his gloves. thats not recommended since the high guard is vulnerable to body shots and uppercuts

Gennady Golovkin, always comes behind a jab, delivers his combinations then takes a step back when his opponent tries to retaliate or counter. Golovkin never over commits, he throws alot of punches and doesnt stay long on the pocket.

Simply boband weave yur way inside ,move your head with your hands up to your face just ike Mike Tyson did ,look up some of Mike Tyson's early fights on You Tube.

Bobbing, ducking, and weaving.

speed.... good foot worx, perfect bob & weave

dip your hand in
