Arm wrestling help with hooks? (THUMB)

[OMGWTF]

Smart observation, I've heard a few different coaches make an analogy to arm wrestling when teaching a left hook, specifically in terms of where to move the weight for leverage. I don't know if competing would actually help but understanding how it works may give you some valuable insight.

It took me months to understand scrap and his thumb but yes it has a lot to do with hooks. To quote scrap the thumb is the digit to the IQ.

Its about as helpful as opening a bottle of wine with a corkscrew.
