Corkscrew punch

[Hazmat]

Gio, that's the ruddic smash. The corckscrew push is a reference to ali. It's what dundee called his overhand right that laid someone out ( I can't remember who ) it sort of goes around the guys left guard or if he's throwing a jab you slip it while throwing the twisty over hand right.

Hajime no Ippo's the best comic book/anime ever. ****in' love it.

And yes, the corkscrew punch is when you twist your hand right around impact. I think Terry McGovern was one of the first fighters to really develop it. Back then, with the gloves they had, he was really good at making cuts on his opponents, using the corkscrew.

the corkscrew punch is a real punch. it takes on the same action as a drill.

somebody mentioned the image of hatton doing an uppercut. this is the main way i train drilling. corkscrew is more overturning. legend has it that demspey was taught this punch by a chinese boxer. it is a somewhat unconfirmed story, but who knows - i have seen a supposed picture of the two.

the corkscrew punch is older than modern combative boxing.

Sure, but he was one of the first boxers known to inflict cuts on his opponents by using it.
