Combination

A combination is a series of punches thrown together, like the 1-2 (jab-cross) or 1-2-3 (jab-cross-hook). Combinations overwhelm defenses and set up openings that single punches can't. Coach Chris drills the Core 4 — jab, cross, lead hook, rear hook — until they're second nature.

How to do it

1. 1Start with a jab to measure range.
2. 2Flow each punch into the next without resetting fully.
3. 3Keep balance and guard between shots.
4. 4Finish with a defensive movement or exit.

Common mistakes

• Throwing one punch at a time.
• Losing balance rushing the sequence.
• Standing still after the last punch.
