Sparring a hooker

Left hook-Jab is tough because of the mechanics of footwork.
It's easier to double left hook instead

yeah, i know what you mean, i practice hooks then jab off on the bag, I couldnt seem to get power off the jab because i just spent the arm. But then i came to conclusion that its more of just a jab to put you back in range, so if you reach out and bop em with it, it serves its purpose not as a popping jab, more just to reestablish range and keep him on the defense.. I think you can manage that.

Thanks guys I'll mull this over and see if I can't bring it into my training a bit

With the double left hook, pivot the front foot as you would with a single hook. But leave it out there and then throw the second hook. A good points scoring tool.
