What does telegraphing a punch mean?

[platinummatt]

Thankyou very much

[TheEvilSaint]

it means winging ur punches so much that ur opponent can easily see them coming. just like you sent him a telegraph saying "im throwing a left hook, try to catch it".

Perfect example: Antonio Margarito

****in back your hand and holdin it there while you aim

usually its drawing back or winding up this usually happens when a fighter tries to throw a really powerful punch

some fighters can pick up on very subtle signs
