or just the back one? what do you guys do. i stay on the back one
if you're a "boxer" you typically are on both because you're moving a lot. Generally, both, but just the back is fine, plus you need to plant your feet to land hard punches anyway.

yah the reason i asked is because i saw some guy doing it. i think i will stay on both when i am hopping around the outside jabbing. and then when i start slugging it out or infighting i will plant the front.

i sometimes change between the 2 so i basically keep 1 foot planted and the other on the ball ready to switch 2 either quick

boxers = both feet
sluggers = usually 1
at the gym i go to if your not on the balls of both your feet at all times you are in trouble!

for me it all depend on who im going against. i dont have a definate style you can always expect to see. i work on all aspects so i can change my style depending on my opponents style

the right heel raised slightly higher then the left! like that youre legs move wid ur hips! brings more power! watch trinidad or young tyson! look how much their right heels are raised when they throw powerful punches!

You can even have your back foot really hi on a jab. one of my favorite posters is one of Ali throwing a jab, and you can see how high his back foot is. man that Man really was the greatest!
