Combos Of The Week: Week 26 Virtual Padwork Online Boxing Series

Welcome to the twenty-sixth 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 176: Slip 532 Slip 2 Slip 532

Stance: Orthodox

A high-volume endurance drill focusing on the lead-side counter. By repeating the "Slip-5-3-2" sequence, you train your core to stay active and your weight to transfer fluidly between head movement and power shots.

Combo Sequence:

  • Slip Left

  • Low Left Hook / Uppercut

  • Left Hook

  • Cross

  • Slip Right

  • Cross

  • Slip Left

  • Low Left Hook / Uppercut

  • Left Hook

  • Cross

Combo 177: Catch Catch 3 Roll 123

Stance: Southpaw

This sequence focuses on neutralizing straight shots. After catching a 1-2, you immediately fire a lead hook and roll to the right to create a fresh angle for a classic Jab-Cross-Hook response.

Combo Sequence:

  • Right Catch

  • Left Catch

  • Right Hook

  • Roll Right

  • Jab

  • Cross

  • Right Hook

Combo 178: Step 6 Slip 53

Stance: Orthodox

A deceptive counter-punching drill. You use a step back to pull the opponent onto a long rear uppercut, then immediately slip their return shot to land a lead uppercut, lead hook (body-to-head) while they are off-balance.

Combo Sequence:

  • Step Back

  • Right Uppercut

  • Slip Left

  • Low Left Hook / Uppercut

  • Left Hook

Combo 179: Jab Block Block Roll 112

Stance: Southpaw

This drill reinforces defensive transitions. After the jab, you use an elbow tuck and a high block to absorb pressure, followed by a roll to reset your position for a sharp double jab-cross finish.

Combo Sequence:

  • Jab

  • Right Elbow

  • Left Block

  • Roll Right

  • Jab

  • Jab

  • Cross

Combo 180: Jab Roll Roll Cross Slip Roll

Stance: Orthodox

A masterclass in continuous head movement. This drill emphasizes "moving while you're not punching," ensuring you are never a stationary target between your jab and your cross.

Combo Sequence:

  • Jab

  • Roll Left

  • Roll Right

  • Cross

  • Slip Right

  • Roll Left

Combo 181: Jab Body Cross Step Cross

Stance: Southpaw

A precision level-changing drill. You use the low jab to distract the opponent's guard before firing the straight left. The step back then lures them into a "trap" where they walk directly into a second, powerful cross.

Combo Sequence:

  • Jab

  • Low Jab

  • Cross

  • Step Back

  • Cross

Combo 182: Block Block Step 232

Stance: Orthodox

This sequence is designed for fighting a high-pressure opponent. By using the elbow tuck and block to weather the storm, followed by a tactical step back, you create the necessary space to unload a clean 2-3-2 counter.

Combo Sequence:

  • Right Elbow

  • Left Block

  • Step Back

  • Cross

  • Left Hook

  • Cross

Closing Thoughts

This project began as a 365-day commitment to creating a free, dependable resource for boxing enthusiasts worldwide. By stripping away spoken instruction and focusing on the raw mechanics of the combinations, these sequences are designed to be a universal language. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced boxer, these archives stand as a testament to the discipline of the craft—a library of inspiration that remains accessible to anyone with a passion for boxing.
