Right Uppercut-Left Hook against a crouching opponent, the Uppercut, which is a heavy punch in its own right, knocks their head upwards into the path of the Left Hook. Its how Arturo Gatti knocked out Joey Gamache (He threw a right hand at the end as well though).

Every knockout that I've achieved in competition (except for one) was by the old one-two. The basics are still the best for me.
But knockouts, unless you've got incredible power, are far more about out-boxing the other guy... setting him up, wearing him down, than about that one isolated combination. It's very hard to knock out a guy wearing headgear unless he's been properly set up.Last edited by SBleeder; 10-17-2010, 08:01 AM.

my teacher always uses this whipping left hook.. feels like u got hit with a sledgehammer. i've been working on it now: instead of a textbook hook, turning your fist in and turn it inward with your elbow up to protect your chin with your shoulder, you extend ur arm outwards for a nano second and THEN whip it in hard as a hook... it sounds weird and puts a lot of stress on your arm, elbow, wrist, but that **** comes down HARD as HELL!
