If it can make my jabs into nosebreakers, I'd like to purchase one of your power jabbers. lol.

Cotto is a good example of some who steps down with his front foot and really puts some power into his jab.. It's not the sharpest jab i've seen, but his ability to follow the jab up if he even stuns you,, and the fact that he's prepared to take counters to keep coming forward, it is very effective.

The power of the jab alone is enough to wake his opponent up and you feel he could almost knock lesser opponents out with it if they were caught unawares by it.

Timing too is vital. You have to get your body into one fluid motion from the legs, hips through the shoulders and into the arm. A lot of people try to throw a punch (not just the jab) too hard and they mess up the body shape and lose out on the power. I was made to practice throwing punches in slow motion when shadow boxing so that I could see the position my body was in.

i have a insane jab and left hook... the reason is im naturaly left handed, but i stand orthodox. .

You're not really going to need a right hook for anything unless you have a guy hurt, against the ropes, or you want to throw a bomb on the break.


I'd take a solid jab over any punch out there, you can win on the jab alone and it doesn't have to be all that powerful.

thats good to know... cuz a month ago with i started boxing i noticed i favor my jab and left hook... i know i need to work on my cross, but i hae been trying to get my right hook up to, guess i dont have to worry about it. my left hook and jab rattle my whole garage when i hit the bag though . im sure its no were near you guys as far as speed in my combos but eventuly it will be.

...it's a fun punch to land ...no doubt but the right hook is not often used. You're better off working on the uppercut which is also a difficult punche to land
