I know to many of you this is a dumb question, but when your boxing, doesnt hitting them in the Jaw Knock them out? Is that the best place to aim for?

depends on how good a chin they have....and how well the punch is thrown....granted if you hit someone on the "Button"(solidly on the chin) you do have a greater chance of KOing them...or a devastating Liver punch....Quote:

not all refs' count bodyshots , so in fight you shouldn't throw only bodyshots.Quote:

A body shot is a very dangerous tool... a good shot to the liver will get most people down and it's hard to recover from.
When he throw a straight right hand he will be expouse to a hit in the liver so ,quickly you can lean to the left, give him a strong left uppercut to the liver and a left hook to the head , and he'll go down.Quote:

^^^ So your saying hit right on the tip of the chin? AdamGB I only wokr the body cuz then they start to slow down and drop there hands then leaves there head wide open. So you saying screw bodyshots? And go for the head?
hell no never stop going to the body baby! bang em to the body then the head on the inside, then at range jab em give em strait rights and then duck in or lunge in with hooks to the body, then they drops the hands n you hit strait right hands to the chinQuote:

you hit them in the body , they drop their hand and expose their chin and then you knock em out.Quote:

Truth is you dont need a hard shot to the jaw to KO someone,,,The temple, Behind the jaw under the ear, bcak of the head if they are bent foward, all dangerous spots
well... if you are an amatuer generally u wana be winning by points, both my trainers tell me different things, but if you go for the forehead of their headgaurd, even though it generarally wont knock them out, it will score points and snap there head back. This can scare them and make them go more defensive..then you might want to be aiming for the chin. ;)
