          I thought i read somewhere that Kid Gavilan revolutionized the Bolo Punch.

          Not sure who invented it.

                from the link posted:

                Ceferino Garcia is commonly referred to as the inventor of the bolo punch, though a 1924 article appearing in the Tacoma News-Tribune reported a Filipino boxer named Macario Flores.

                Either way it was invented by the Filipino's. Pacquiao should start using it just for historic value

                  also it says the Ike-Byrd was one of the more famous bolo punch. I always thought of it as an uppercut:



                  I guess since the punch is coming at an angle it's considered a bolo punch? very fine line here...

                      Perhaps Filipino's knew about it because it was attributed to a "Filipino boxer".
