If you're a slugger should you be on your toes alot?

[Verstyle]

I wondered this.I mean it does wonders for movements,but throwing power shots and planting your feet.Is it good to be on your toes for that? Ive been doing floor drills= lately at my gym. Seems like I might be a little off balance when throwing shots on my toes. But I get better leverage but less movement when Im flatfooted.

You mean a puncher? or a all out slugger?

I see you as a boxer that gets in close and becomes a puncher.

What do you mean, a swarming type of puncher like Brewster or a very accurate, waste no shots puncher like Tszyu?

Well for the most part, movement isn't in a sluggers arsenal. Sluggers usually move only one way - forwards!
I see you as a swarmer anyway vers, you'll mostly want to stay inside anyways to neutralise the other guys reach. So upper body movement will be most important to you.

Like Tszyu I guess.

Your last sentence seems accurate. Do what boxers do then when Im close just unleash.

I wanna move foward but give out lateral movements also.

Then watch tszyu, he is not on his toes but he is really good at cutting the ring. BUT make no mistake, Tszyu boxed since he was like 6 and has hundreds of AM fights and dozens of am titles. So, it's gonna be hard to move like tszyu.
