Combos Of The Week: Week 10 Virtual Padwork Online Boxing Series
Welcome to the tenth instalment of Combos Of The Week. This series is a complete recap of the Virtual Padwork library I built in 2023.
If you are looking for a structured way to learn about online boxing, this series will serve as a reference guide. Instead of hunting through a social media feed, you can find the technical sequences right here, grouped by week, to study in your own time.
Here is the breakdown of combos 64 to 70 from the archive.
Combo 64: The Marciano
Stance: Orthodox
Inspired by Rocky Marciano’s awkward but devastating power. This drill uses a low jab feint to pull the opponent's guard down, followed by a looping right hook and a deep crouch to load up a massive lead-side counter.
Combo Sequence:
Feint Low Jab
Right Hook
Crouch
Left Hook
Combo 65: The 132 Loop
Stance: Southpaw
The Southpaw version of the classic 1-3-2. For the lefty, this involves the Jab, Lead Hook, and Cross. Looping this builds the specific muscle memory needed to turn the lead shoulder over for the hook before snapping the cross back down the pipe.
Combo Sequence:

Combo Sequence:

Combo 67: 1 2 Pull 2
Stance: Southpaw
The essential Southpaw counter. By firing the 1-2, you invite the Orthodox opponent to return a straight shot. The "Lean Back" (pull) creates the miss, leaving them perfectly positioned for your finishing straight cross.
Combo Sequence:

Combo 68: 5632
Stance: Orthodox
An explosive inside combination. By starting with the double uppercuts (the 5 and 6), you split the opponent's guard or lift their chin, creating the opening for the lead hook and the finishing cross.

Combo 69: The Left Uppercut Motif

Focusing on the power-side (rear) uppercut for the Southpaw. This drill ensures that no matter what punch you throw, you can always find the angle to fire a sharp left uppercut underneath the opponent's defence.
