    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.

    I like to trick my opponents by using a classic tactic. Basically I hit them with soft shots and let them get used to feeling that. Then I smash them with a hard blow that wakes them up.

    To be specific, I'll try only throwing straight punches using only 40% of my power, letting them get used to that power and straight angle. Then my favorite is to watch their face when I hit them with a 100% power left hook. The straight punches get their guard in front of their face, which opens them up for a very powerful left hook. If I stun them I follow up with a 100% straight right.

    Play the fool to catch a fool, make them think you're a one dimensional fighter, and then let it all hang when they least expect it!

    Seriously.

    If I were actually fighting. I have zero training, mind you.

    Left hook (head)
    Right Uppercut
    Left hook (body)
    Right hook (body)

    Hopefully I wouldn't be KO'd between the left hook to the head and the right uppercut.
