ending w/ lead hand concept

So why's it better then the jab?

 

Because of the amino acids in the plyometric levels of h20 and c02

 

Boom exacly :thumbsup

 

Because your in a better position after you throw it, i prefer throwing a jab after but the left hook is better i'm not trying to convince you i'm just saying what i thought.

 

Well hey maybe you should tell Lou Duva, we all know he needs some help coaching...

If somebody finished with a left hook you would want to turn to your left taking the sting away from the punch and probably counter with a left of your own but by then the person is in their pocket and can easily move back or do whatever they want to dodge your punch or get out clean, if you throw a jab i would think to throw a right over the top, the difference is if you imagine a guy finishing a combination on you by throwing a left hook and him going back into his position and you wanting to throw a left hook or uppercut he can move back and counter again because he will most likely be in better position and balance. But if you imagine him ending with a jab he will be more straight up and in less of a position to defend than if he had thrown a hook and you can counter with a jab and work from there.

Anyway whichever you prefer dosen't make any difference to me so yeah :thumbsup

Personally i do like the jab but i still think the left hook is better.

 

:deal

This guy needs to get out of Lou duva's anus.

 

i think it depends.....like most things....

 

Jealousy is a bad look...Some trainers wont be as great as others, it's just a part of life :thumbsup
It's all good

 

honestly sounds like you go off balance with your hook than...work on your hook:deal

 

It was explained to me this way...You finish with a hook because a hook is very often a blind side punch that the other guy doesn't see coming. I always teach finishing with a left hand, starting with the straight left after the right hand (I call it a straight left and not a jab because, thrown after a right, weight transfers, and weight does not transfer with a jab).
If finishing with a hook leaves you off balance, don't blame the hook. Your feet are messed up. Try sliding your right foot directly to the right about an inch after you throw your right hand, then hook. Or the left foot to the left if you insist on being a southpaw. Don't slide it forward: Go the side and just barely.

 

:good

 

It really does sound like you hook is ****ed, need to work on it...

 

Not true

 

No it doesn't - if you throw a left hook properly your hips and feet should turn into it thus your body will be turned far more to the side then a normal boxing stance - additionally your weight should have transferred to your back leg rather then be balanced so your weight will not be properly proportioned.

A hook uses your whole body for propulsion and transfer of weight from left to right, or front to back is the main reason why it isn't as good a punch to finish on as the jab par se... Obviously circumstances dictate how you should finish a combination but as most engagements won't lead to a brutal knockout opportunity it would be more reasonable to suggest that a jab will leave the boxer in a better position to continue the attack - or defend.

 

I don't agree..you land the hook..the guy reacts, your body turns out the other way...you are safe to either leave the pocket or stay in and start a new combination.
