![]() | The thoughts are interesting behind these, but I'm not sure they're practical, let's go through them. "1) Jab(head)-Cross(head)-front slap (groin)" The problem with this is the hand positions. If you're doing traditional boxing your jab hand should come back to your face after the strike. If that's the case, you have to drop it from your face down to the groin to hit. If you're not doing a traditional palm strike towards the pelvis (as opposed to the genitals) you'll have to bring the hand to waist level, pull it back then slap it in and your opponent will see it a mile off. "2) Jab (Head)-Front headbutt(nose)" The only problem with this is your distance. You jab is your longest shot and your range is simply too long for a headbutt. You'd have to scoot in fast to do the headbutt and that jab probably isn't going to be distracting enough for you to do that unopposed. "3) Cross(Head)-switch foots-Headbutt " This one's a little more practical, but still has some flaws. If you start with a jab then the cross, you're a little more likely to be able to scoot in for that head butt. The one thing you don't need to do is switch your feet up. You may get caught in transition and you can scoot faster than you can step if you train properly. "4) Jab of fingers (eye) - Uppercut Front" Think about the motions your opponent will do after these shots. If you poke his eyes, his heads going to go backwards not downwards. Unless you're doing a less traditional torso uppercut, you'll never land that strike to the face. Try things like this. It's less traditional boxing, but more effective. Jab, Cross, Clinch, Knee to the groin or face, elbow to the face or back of the head (depending on how he's bent) For instance, if you hit him in the groin, he'll bend at the waist, leaving the back of his head exposed for a downward strike with the point of the elbow. If you hit him in the face and let the clinch up a bit, he'll attempt to stand up to get away, leaving his face exposed for an elbow. -Apoth |
