    This may sound stupid. I guess I may need to look it up. I throw nearly every kind of punch there is. Work them all in combinations...even counted as high as a 12-13 punch combo in one recent fight.

    But I have no idea what these numbers represent. Can anyone link me with a guide for them?

    Basically...
    1=jab
    2=right
    3=hook
    4=uppercut

    Some people made a couple of changes to delineate where a punch is thrown to, (e.g. 1b=jab to the body) and in Tyson's case he had some representing punches such as a left hook to the liver for instance.

    The combinations with numbers idea never really interested me, I think it's shit unless you know how to land them.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    Thanks Chris...yea I figured the 1-2 out, as seemed common sense.

    Still I see 5 and so on. People use them a lot and I've never really responded because I felt sorta dumb.

    Would like to have an official guide maybe too...does one exist? I can probably look this up myself and will but am multi tasking max. out atm with homework and things.

    Here's what I use...and I blatantly steal from other fighters

    Jab, Jab (swat down guard), right cross.....from Wladimir Klitschko...works basically anywhere anytime

    Left hook body, right hook body, left hook head (you can add a right uppercut in there if you like).....ala Mike Tyson, works best if your opponent is on the ropes and on the uppercut if you like to throw it, turn your body on the follow through of that last hook to give yourself a better angle.

    Jab, Jab, left hook body, left hook head, right cross, left hook head

    Left hook body, left hook body, left uppercut

    5 is a left uppercut, 4 is a right uppercut. So a 5-3 is left-uppercut-left hook combo, like you see Hatton throw sometimes.

    Rocky Marciano ALWAYS threw a right uppercut behind his left hook and it made perfect sense #1 If a fighter is going to dodge a hook USUSALLY they will try and duck or slip the punch and it puts them right in the wheelhouse for the follow up uppercut....they bend right into the punch and #2 The weight shift allows for you to load up on both punches if you like......I rarely ever throw uppercuts when I spar but I am begining to think I should start

    Tall fighters like you so often neglect the uppercut. Short guys like me live by them.
