This is Western boxing, hands only fighting.
The main tools are:
Jab, Cross, Hook, Uppercut
The target is the head, the purpose is the knockout.
With lead and rear hooks and uppercuts, this generates 6 basic punches. You learn and practice these on the pads, then try them out in sparring.
Drilling is progressive:
Basic punches - the "big 6"
Defences
Attack combinations
Defensive combinations
Sparring
ABC means "Attack By Combination".
For ease, we use abbreviations for writing ABCs.
J - Jab
C - Cross
H - Hook
U - Uppercut
L - low, as in LJ or LC
R - rear, as in RU or RH. As the C is always rear we don't write RC.
These ABCs are practiced on the focus pads, drilled in lineups, then tried out in sparring.
