head movement...

1. head movement is good, but try to make it happen by lifting ankles, shifting eight or turning the body... if all you do is move your head around, you will get timed and hit or get tired and worse forget to worry about your own offense as well. try to remember that the act of slipping punches (which is good at straight punch range) is also the same body movement as if you are throwing a punch, an outside slip is pretty much the same as the movement for a left hook, and an inside slip is dropping a big right hand down the middle... try this and see if it doesn't add to your counter punching ability quite nicely.
