Whats your feedback on this video?
First the alignment on the rear leg (right leg) roundhouse kick is wrong. The foot, ankle and lower leg should be one solid line rather than the foot bending down or drooping like it does. Getting better alignment will increase your power on that kick and also help prevent you from hurting your ankle so work on this and your stretching and flexibility. Secondly I only saw one kick with the front leg and another half hearted sort of one. Work on using your front leg more and also angles with it and then also using it to set up that more powerful fast round house with the rear leg. Moving and throwing kicks with the front leg and using angles or angling the front kicks to the body will force your opponent to bring his hands and arms forward more and down some exposing that head for your rear round house. Most of your movement was from left to right or counter clockwise it seemed; start on the far side of the bag and work on your movement from right to left or clockwise out of that left lead also so that you can more easily move in either direction and are not so predictable. Work on keeping your chin down more and hiding it and your lower cheek behind your shoulders when you throw punches to prevent getting yourself knocked out in case your opponent gets the angle on you or throws a right cross or a left hook. I would also work a little on doubling and tripling up on my jab and keeping my hands just a little higher at times and also once you can double and triple up well then work on fakes and feints and mixing them in with your combinations so that you are less predictable. I also see the space is not the largest but start working on your fighting skills while going backwards at angles so that you have some offense that way. Sometimes the way to beat a person is to get them going back and if they don't fight well that way then they are more easily beaten and that is what I would do with you along with using my lead leg and some feints and fakes to set up power shots and combinations along with using angles so that I would not be coming directly into your power. With that chin up it gives me a good shot at that sweet spot so you might also want to work on head movement. I see a lot of raw talent and ability but it can be much better if developed further and with the right approach to things so look for a good boxing coach to work on those hands, fakes, feints and keeping that chin down. Also look for a kicker that knows how to use his front leg and can help you develop that to more effectively pick people apart and use to set up that more powerful rear leg and your hand combinations.
