    Depends on the classification. Formally 3: straight, hook, uppercut for each arm.
    In practice, there are lots of semi-punches: half hook-halk upper cuts for instance.

    Formally, I'd say 4; hook, jab, straight, uppercut.

    Hookercuts, looped overhand bolo shots, and hookish jabs are kinds of modifications and fusions of the main 4.

    Are you being serious with this ****? Fair enough wanting to learn, but the irrelevant, pointless questions you're asking every day are making you look like an idiot, particularly since you just made a thread stating you're the best at your gym even though you get coaching just once a week and obviously don't have a clue about anything.
