Throwing a fast and powerful combination is exhilarating and satisfying, and it is always good to have new combinations to work with when shadowboxing or doing bag work.

Before reading further, we assume that you already have An understanding of punch numbering

An understanding of basic boxing combination principles

What You Should Learn From Combinations

Boxing combinations are NOT rigid rules/patterns that must be memorized and always executed the same way.It is critical to understand that these combinations, and any other combinations you see online, are IDEAS.

As you grow as a boxer, you will learn to form your own combinations in the spur of the moment based on your balance and your opponent. HOWEVER, practicing and studying different combinations can help you by giving you experience feeling what combinations work well for you, and what punches flow well after one another

The goal is to become intimately familiar with the mechanics of the flow of punches so that you can throw combinations on the fly without thinking.

Additionally, there are several things that these combinations do not incorporate:
distinction between high and low punchesthrowing subsequent punches with the same handleading without a jabunique punches such as shovel punches or overhand rights

16 Different 4-Punch Combinations

* Note that these are listed for orthodox (right-handed) fighters. If you are a southpaw, reverse the directions.

1. 1-2-3-2 (Jab, cross, left hook, cross)
Make sure to keep the left hook tight and close to your body. A long looping hook will ruin the following cross.

2. 1-2-3-4 (Jab, cross, left hook, right hook)
Do not over-rotate or throw your momentum around when you throw two successive hooks.

3. 1-2-3-6 (Jab, cross, left hook, right uppercut)
The uppercut should sneak up on your opponent, so avoid a “windup” but still bring it up quickly and with power.

4. 1-2-5-2 (Jab, cross, left uppercut, cross)
Throw the uppercut like a light punch, not a power punch, and save the power for your cross.

5. 1-2-5-6 (Jab, cross, left uppercut, right uppercut)
The danger here is to make sure your alternate hand remains up in a guard when you are throwing two uppercuts

6. 1-4-1-2 (Jab, right hook, jab, cross)
Don’t give your right hook away with a big windup.

7. 1-4-1-6 (Jab, right hook, jab, right uppercut)
Put all your power into your uppercut without making it obvious that it is coming.

8. 1-4-3-2 (Jab, right hook, left hook, cross)
Again, with two successive hooks, make sure not to over-rotate.

9. 1-4-3-6 (Jab, right hook, left hook, right uppercut)
Same as before, be wary of over-rotating.

10. 1-4-5-2 (Jab, right hook, left uppercut, cross)
Keep your uppercut tight and high. Don’t dip to low to throw it.

11. 1-6-1-2 (Jab, right uppercut, jab, cross)
The jab-uppercut works best if you close the distance between you and your opponent with the jab.

12. 1-6-1-4 (Jab, right uppercut, jab, right hook)
If you catch your opponent off-guard with the uppercut, the hook coming can be devastating.

13. 1-6-3-2 (Jab, right uppercut, left hook, cross)
One of my favorites, the 6, 3, and 2 all have the power to do serious damage in this combination.

14. 1-6-3-4 (Jab, right uppercut, left hook, right hook)
Keep your balance when throwing the last hook so you are ready to defend yourself.

15. 1-6-3-6 (Jab, right uppercut, left hook, right uppercut)
Right after they recover from one uppercut, you come in with the next one.

16. 1-6-5-2 (Jab, right uppercut, left uppercut, cross)
Throw the uppercuts fast and keep your alternate hand up during them.
Shortening The CombinationsIf you want to make these combinations shorter, remember that you can always remove a punch from the end or beginning.

A 1-4-5-2 can simply be a 1-4-5 or a 4-5-2.
Adding VariationSince you are not meant to stick to a mundane set of combinations all the time, you need to know how to add variation to your boxing combinations. By adding variation you make it easier to catch your opponent off-guard.

Repeating Jabs

All of these combinations leads with jabs. But they don’t have to. Alternatively, they don’t have to just lead with a single jab. Jabs are always good is groups, and it is a good practice to vary how many jabs you throw to keep your opponent’s off balance.

Repeating Hooks

Another way to catch opponent’s off guard is by throwing a hook twice. This is hard to do in terms of your torque and momentum, but you typically throw the first hook lighter than the second hook.

This turns 1-2-3-2 into 1-2-3-3-2.

Alternating High and Low Punches

By alternating your punches thrown to the head and body, you introduce even more confusion for your opponent.

An example is throwing is throwing 1-2-low3-2.

This also works well in conjunction with repeated jabs or hooks:

low1-high1-2-3-2 or for hooks 1-2-low3-high3-2

Alternating Your Rhythm

Your rhythm can both refer to the pattern of power in your punches, such as light-light-heavy-heavier, or to the timing of your punches. Both of these can be varied to further mix up your opponent.

For example, throw 3 punches, pause for a split second, and than throw your last punch.
Combining CombinationsYou can take two of the above combinations and combine parts of them to make longer combinations.

For example combine 1-6-3-2 with (1)-2-5-2 with the ending 2 of the first combination being the first 2 in the second combination. The result: 1-6-3-2-5-2.

Practice Makes Perfect

Shadowbox, shadowbox, shadowbox.
Throw these combinations a half-dozen times each. As you do so, start to improvise on them and learn new ways to change them.
