I was never coached to use the jab, straight, left hook. Do you escape left generally, turn and reset?
Yes, all the great trainers insisted on it for that reason.
That was one of the first real combinations other than a one-two that I was taught. And forced to practice it regularly. But that was 25 years ago.
Yeah, we always did the combination on the mits but it was never really part of our match plan. I've always been tall for my class so our approach was jab heavy, one two, throwaway hooks and straight rights. Could have been because my left hook sucked too.
