Combos Of The Week: Week 21 Virtual Padwork Online Boxing Series
Welcome to the twenty-first 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.
Combo 141: 12 3 Roll 3 Roll 32
Stance: Southpaw
This drill emphasizes "doubling down" on the lead hook while moving the head. For the southpaw, rolling to the right (outside) between hooks builds the leg strength and coordination needed to stay offensive while evading the opponent's rear-hand counters.

Combo 142: The Patterson
Stance: Orthodox
Inspired by Floyd Patterson’s "Peek-a-Boo" influenced style. This sequence uses a double jab to find the range, followed by rapid slips to get into position for a heavy, repetitive right hook attack aimed at breaking through a high guard.

Combo 143: 125 Slip 52 Slip 6
Stance: Southpaw
A sophisticated counter-punching drill. It integrates the lead uppercut (the 5) after a 1-2, using slips to reset the power for both the lead and rear uppercuts. It’s a great drill for mastering the rhythm of fighting "up the middle."

Combo 144: 1 Step Step 632 Slip 2
Stance: Orthodox
This combo focuses on drawing the opponent in. You fire a jab and take two steps back to create a false sense of security, before exploding forward with a 6-3-2 (Rear Uppercut, Lead Hook, Cross) and slipping the return.
Combo Sequence:

Combo 145: Block 3 Catch 2 Jab
Stance: Southpaw
A clinical defensive drill. You block the lead hook and return fire with your own, then catch a straight shot and immediately counter with a cross-jab. It reinforces the habit of having a defensive "answer" for every incoming strike.
Combo Sequence:
Right Block
Right Hook
Left Catch
Cross
Jab
Combo 146: The Joshua
Stance: Orthodox
Inspired by Anthony Joshua’s calculated power. This drill targets the body early with a low jab and hook to bring the guard down. You then use the lead hand for "Head Control" to hold the target in place for a devastating rear uppercut.
Combo Sequence:
Low Jab
Low Right Hook
Left Hook (Head Control)
Right Uppercut
Combo 147: Block 3 Slip 32 Roll
Stance: Southpaw
This sequence focuses on staying active in the pocket. After blocking and countering with a hook, you slip to create a fresh angle for a hook-cross, finishing with a roll to the left to exit safely and avoid the counter-hook.
Combo Sequence:
Right Block
Right Hook
