    Ricky Hattons leaping left hook is the most telegraph punch I have ever seen. He leans and dips to the left while ****ing his left hand back. He does it the same way everytime, thats how Manny and Floyd where able to knock him down with there own hooks in between his.

      3) punching in the same combination all the time.
      4) punching at the same time in your "rythm" all the time.
      5) winding up- see below

          If you throw a punch and your opponent dodge it even before you release it.....You're too darn telegraphing your punch..

          Some boxers **** their punches which made it predictable to their opponents.
