Hookercross?

[AlexKid]

Ok do you know there is a difference between a straight right hand and a right cross?

ie with the straight right the arm is perfectly straight and with the right cross the arm is bent at an obtuse angle? (so it can counter and go over the straight right)


Well

I was thinking the hook punches when they start going past 90 degree's at the elbow start to suck, because they loose power, because the circular hook force is cushioned by "give" in the elbow arm and shoulder.

Well I was thinking. Instead of a long range right and left hook you should use a long range right cross and LEFT CROSS. (orthodox)

The reason being is the circular force can be more efficiently delivered by the arm if it knocks the head diagonally back (almost like a straight punch and exactly like a "cross") rather than trying to knock it to the side?

Not to mention it makes connecting with the fist alot easier than a long range hook which tends to hit with the thumb or door knocking knuckles. (dont even bring russian hooks into this please they are awesome but it will just confuse things further)

So anyway do you think this is a good idea yes or no and why?

Also how do you throw a long range hook one that goes past 90 properly/optimally? (I noticed some people even start bending the wrists to be able to land this shot)

Your questions would be so easily answered by a coach in real life. He'd probably even appreciate the fact you're asking them. On here though, I don't think anyone can figure out wtf you're talking about.

That all came from the deep dark recesses of your mind. Not mine.

Whos that guy in you avatar? He is very intimidating looking without any obvious reason why, normally if someone's intimidating its obvious as to why, but with him its different!?

One of the most unpleasant moments in life is to discover that a hooker is actually a hookercross.
