Jab-Front Hook Body-Back Upper-Roll-Back Hook Body

Phase 1: Offensive Entry and Level Change (Jab - Front Hook Body)

This initial sequence is designed to establish range and force the opponent to shift their defense from the head to the body.

• Jab (1): The Setup The combination begins with the Jab. This is a quick, straight punch thrown with your lead hand. The jab is the setup punch that makes all other punches possible. It is crucial for measuring distance, disrupting the opponent's rhythm, and creating an opening, often by forcing them to raise their guard.
  • Mechanics: The jab is not a power punch. Mechanics involve rotating your front hip into your back leg and extending your front hand straight down the middle.
• Front Hook Body: The Attack Level Change Immediately after the jab, you throw a powerful Front Hook to the Body (lead hand). The primary goal of the preceding jab is to force the opponent to raise their guard to protect their head, leaving their body exposed. This hook capitalizes on that vulnerability by changing the attack level to target a sensitive area, such as the liver. This level change is designed to catch the opponent completely off guard while they are still defending high.

Phase 2: Vertical Surprise and Defensive Coil (Back Upper - Roll)

This phase follows the body shot with an immediate vertical attack, anticipating the opponent’s reaction, and then transitions into a critical defensive maneuver that sets up the finish.

• Back Upper (Back Uppercut): The Reload This punch is delivered with the dominant (rear) hand. The Back Uppercut exploits the opening created when the opponent raises their gloves to defend the preceding punches. It is designed to come "up the middle" and break through a tight guard. Throwing a power punch with the same hand (the rear hand) shortly after a previous straight or body shot is unexpected and catches opponents off guard.
  • Mechanics: To generate power, you quickly bend your knees, drop your hips, and fire your hand upward.
• Roll: Evasion and Momentum Load After the offensive burst, you anticipate and evade the opponent's likely counter-punch (e.g., a straight) by performing a Roll. This defensive head movement takes your head off the centerline. This movement is critical because it is performed by bending your knees and lowering your level (moving the upper body in a U-shaped motion). Crucially, the roll loads your hips and core, coiling your body like a spring for the next attack.

Phase 3: Counter-Offense Finish (Back Hook Body)

The combination concludes by immediately leveraging the stored momentum from the defensive movement into a powerful final body shot.

• Back Hook Body: The Power Finish As you complete the roll and come up, you immediately throw a powerful Back Hook to the Body. This punch continues the body assault. By attacking the body with two consecutive hooks from different sides (Front Hook Body, then Back Hook Body), you keep your opponent guessing and off-balance. In this sequence, you leverage the momentum and weight transfer from the preceding Roll for maximum force in the finishing body shot. This final shot capitalizes on the opponent's vulnerability, as their guard is likely still high from the uppercut and they are off-balance from their missed counter.
