    Hook to the body or head?

    There really is no such punch as a right hook. A right hook really isn't a real punch. A right hook is either called a looping right to the head (which usually misses or ineffective) or a wild swing to the body- which anyone can do.

    There is no such intrigue in a right hook.
    Bro, the way you appear to look at boxing comes across as naive/ ignorant/ idiotic.

    No such thing as a right hook

    The Right Hook for orthodox fighters really is just the right hand. There is no science to it. May as well say right hand to the body or head.

    A straight right is distinguished because we call it a straight right. I know you can have a "right hook", but for orthodox fighters it really and truly is the most mundane punch that really anyone can throw.

    It's the very first punch one is inclined to throw for orthodox fighters. Why have a special discussions for it?
    A normal right hand is a straight right. A right hand that is arched over ala Mayorga is an over hand or chopping right. A short hook with the right like Marcianos Suzie Q is a right hook.

    What you are saying is like saying there is no difference between a straight left jab and a left hook!

    Don't be silly!
