is totaly impractical. You'll never throw anything more than the 1-2..... maybe an occasional 1-2-3 in a fight. But most will be various isolated punches.

i think during a tko attempt you can throw some buetiful combo's,
that's true, but it won't be the conventional 1-2-3-4. The punches will come more sporadically as you look to line up your man, who won't be static like mitts are.
I have never had trouble landing four straits in sparring.. I tend to bend my knee's and come up with the strait rights though..and its pretty speedy to so im not to bad... Have to move forward with the punches though..Bck em up..Quote:

In example.. I'll feint step forward.. Back onto the ball of the right foot..And the push of with a strait left uppercut.. To lift the chin and follow through with the right hand..
( If you dont catch my drift about the uppercut..Its basically a jab thrown with your fist faced like an uppercut.. but strait and fast like a jab to the chin..For the sole purpose of lifting the chin and following through with a right hand..)
And the step in with a quick jab so that my wieght is very briefly on the front foot push back onto my back foot and whether they have thrown or have opted not to..Soon after there can usually come the opportunity to push of the back foot in with a speedy one two..One two three or one two left hook if im lucky...
Peace
we had this idiot in our gym the other night and in a sparring contest he missed a big looping left hook (that a blind man could see coming) so he came back the other way with a backhand attempt. C-sucker.
:o What the fuck... That would not go down well in my gym.. Someone would get theyr ass beat..Quote:

n tito that sounds kinda like what naz used to do, think he pulled it off perfectly with remigio molina (right uppercut followed by a str8 left floored him). ive never been close to doin tho
i saw tyson ko someone in the amatuers or knock em down when he thre a 1-2-3-4. i think onli 2 punches landed clean. but he threw a 1-2-3-4...
I know a four punch combo that i think would work pretty well. Never had a chance to test it out though.
Lol yeh naz does the same thing in a way.. For the purpose of lifting the chin...Quote:

He was Mental skilled lol.. I try stick The left uppercut set up punch alot straiter..lol
What always amazed me about naz is that when he threw them..They probably shouldnt have even landed ..he was always trying to force the uppercut..I'll never know how he got em in..
Technically your not supposed to be able to force the uppercut..You should bring them onto it by going to the body first or making it right into the inside lol..
Peace
The only 1-2-3 combo I have ever SUCCESSFULLY thrown was a couple of weeks ago with my mate. I threw left hook, right hook, left hand uppercut. He dropped. But, I also think that it was both of our first sparring matches, and I felt like Rocky Balboa. :D
you're new here, so here's lesson number one. There's no such thing as a right hook. 8)
Lol This carry's on far too much lol... Just allow him to be wrong!! :-\ :lickish:Quote:

Ahah..Then to you sir.. There is a left hook..For southpaws.. ;)Quote:

Long story lol..
I like to classify the right hook (for us orthodox fighters) as a haymaker (and I've heard that mentioned on here before). As I am new to this boxing thing, I still am a bit sloppy when it comes to sparring. In the middle of combinations, when I have someone up on the ropes, I find myself coming in with the right "haymaker." Its definatly not a straight right, not a right uppercut, not a "looping" right, or an "overhand" right. Resembles a right hook, but not near enough to be considered a hook. It might be sloppy, but when used in the right situation when the opponant has no chance of countering, watch out, its a hard punch ;).
this is what I call them to. Haymakers. so, that combo I landed was: left haymaker, right haymaker, uppercut. :D
what if ur opponent jabs and u slip to the right! that would set u up for a nice right hook to the head or u could weave right a let go a right hook to the body.....why not?Quote:

I think the only real way to have it be a hook it to be stood litterally toe to toe..And even then its rather awkward i imagine.. lol
Peace
ok cool,i throw a right hook on the bag,but now that i think of it its always the last punch in the combo,never the first. Its easy to throw a right hook on a stationary bag,but like you say, in combat its an akward punch to pull off,unless you throw 1-2-3-4, straight left-straight right,left hook ,right hook,but if executed corectly your opponent is likly to be on there a$$ by the left hook...but i know what you mean,its a difficult punch to execute and feel akward cause you lead with your left foot and there for puts you off balance......Quote:

I used to train a bunch of kids who were healthy young lads but its so much harder to get them to understand how to box when they never really watched boxing.. so they didnt understand a great deal..
I also know a lad at our gym whos about 24 and he just had his first amatuer fight last week..
Im gaggin to have my first bout and i want to fight alot once the fights come but i never have any intention of turning pro.. Just want to do it for an amatuer career..
Peace
thanx man,ill certainly think about it...And good luck with your debut...if you got a cam corder tape it so we can all see,im sure youll do fine ;)
