Combo 323: 31232 Reverse
Stance: Southpaw
This sequence is a coordination drill for the southpaw stance. It leads with the right hook and follows a specific rhythm of straight and hooking shots. Reversing the sequence mid-flow forces you to maintain balance.

Combo 324: The Watson
Stance: Orthodox
Inspired by Michael Watson’s defensive poise. This drill focuses on the "fade" or lean back to evade a jab, immediately followed by a sharp, clinical 1-2-4 counter-attack. It’s about minimal movement for maximum efficiency.

Combo 325: Catch Catch 253 Slip 3
Stance: Southpaw
A defensive-entry drill that transitions into a lead-side flurry. After catching a 1-2, you counter with a Cross-Uppercut-Hook. The slip to the right allows you to reload the lead hook for a powerful finishing shot.

Combo 326: The Benn

Combo 328: The Cooper
Stance: Orthodox
Inspired by "Our 'Enry" Henry Cooper’s legendary left hook ("'Enry’s 'Ammer"). This is a simple, high-impact counter: catch the opponent's jab, roll under the follow-up, and uncork the most famous lead hook in British boxing history.
