Distance when punching your opponent?

Hello, could anyone please tell me how far I should be from an opponent to connect a powerful jab or cross?

How long is your arm again?

[RDJ]

Generally speaking, his face should be at the end of your arm, making contact with your fist

true. If it hits it's good


How long have you been boxing? I hope they're teaching you sound basic technique? As you go on you'll learn to shorten your punches or even sneak an extra bit of length by rotating your shoulders or turning your ribcage.
