When in "Stand Up" mode, how do you position your arms/legs/torso? I'm a natural orthodox(left foot out/weak side first) and using bend both legs slightly to maintain a stable center of gravity. The left paw is usually between a 110 and 125 degrees. I kinda set it up like the 'bait' limb.The right paw is at a stiff 90 degree angle near my right cheek. As for the legs, the left leg is bent with the toe directly out and the right leg is turned slightly to my outer right side. I keep my body tucked in(like a fetus) and my head low. O, and my paws are usually open like bear claws. I dig palm strikes and slaps, not to mention Im a natural grappler, so they're already open for grasping. Now ***** your turn.

I would kick your legs till you cry. You are leaving your stomach open and you would be an easy target for a right hook.
Evev if you're a grappler you need a good basic stance to protect yourself. I'm not ragging on ya just trying to help you out.
Blocking should be done with the least abount of movment possible.
Left leg slightly out and turned in to check leg kicks. Right leg back and turned out for balance. elbows in to protect the mid section. both hands up slightly out from the cheecks to block my chin. head tucked, shoulders squared.

I work the traditional bowing stance up top.
semi widw legged stance on bottom for checking kicks/ closing the distance for clinches.
the traditional stance up top could do no wrong,
KEEP THE CHIN TUCKED saves me alot of pain.
