    Ive heard before its always safe to end your combinations with your lead hand and just comfirming and see everyone elses point of views about this? Im also a southpaw if that changes anything.

    Or what do yous end combinations with to be safe?

    I like it as a way to re-establish distance/control. Even if it's not a punch, a stiff arm can work very well.

    Ending with a left hook is always best, best punch to put you back in balance ect

    Well seeing as Andrew Golota wouldnt stop doing it against Riddick Bowe and Foreman was saying how well schooled and smart that is, and seeing that Lou Duva was the one that tought him im guessing its a pretty good thing to do... unless you know more than George Foreman Andrew Golota and Lou Duva? I know your a trainer or whatever but if your saying you know more than Lou Duva thats a bit nutty how many world champions have you had...

    not true
     
  10. Balance, naturally the best answer. It puts you back into the boxing stance to which you will probably need to move to your next position. Basically teaching to clean up and organize the attacks, transitioning from one attack to the next.

    A left hook gets you back in position, it puts your body back into it's boxing stance and puts you in balance. Gets you back in your ''pocket'' and you can work better from there.

    it doesnt matter what is a safe or non safe combination. Everytime you throw punches you are vulnerable.

    well the left hook is the natural 3rd punch to the 1, 2 due to that being how counting is done....lol

    also....you throw the jab...left shoulder goes out..right hand gets "loaded up" in a safe way...throw the right..left hand comes back as the body position turns...now you are in perfect position to throw the left hook.... however....if you are planning on coming out of the pocket. LIke say you just hit a guy 4 times...jab cross hook right...but he is strong as a ox and you dont want to get into a brawl..you can step out of the pocket with a jab.
