I'd say the complete opposite. What's important on the cross if your going to generate any real power vs simply arm punching is to have the back leg "rooted" to initiate the cross (rear foot directly under rear shoulder, "sitting" over rear hip). The cross is a punch that should be generated off the rear hip by pressing off the rear foot. Ideally, if your shifting weight onto the front hip from the rear on the cross (which is when the rear foot would slide forward)...... you're doing so on the follow through (post impact as the hands turning over). The longer you keep the rear foot "anchored" on the cross the heavier the shot is going to be.
what is the difference between the overhand right and the chopping right hand?
