I am kind of curious on everybody's mma stance. I notice my guard changes depending on the size of the gloves I wear.

Me:
45 angle, tucked chin and hips slightly back. Guard with open palm facing inward at temple height (The "comb back the hair" guard as I call it).
 
Weight more forward heavy than if I were doing pure striking. Squared stance. Hands up, lead slightly more out. Guard is more or less the same, maybe more tighter to me I guess if it's larger gloves.

Overall 50-50 in distribution, when on combinations and defense I end up in 80-20 lead leg heavy
 
Chuck liddell like for myself
 
in mma i stand a little more square so i can kick when i need and shoot i normally use a more boxing stance hands up chin down is a must with 4 oz gloves tiny shots can find their way to your jawline quite easy
