As part of my daily exercise routine, I and my friend decided to try boxing.
Boxing is a type of sport were 2 people with similar weight fight each other with the use of their fist. The game has what you call as rounds, usually lasts for 2-3 minutes with breaks in between. A referee is the supervisor of the game. Winning boxing happens when you victoriously knocked down your opponent who is unable to rise up before the referee's count reaches 10. Or maybe through technical knock-out (TKO) where your opponent got too injured and is unable to continue playing the game. When none of these occurred and the game was able to continue up to the agreed number of rounds, then the decision relies on the referee or judge's scoreboard.
Since you use your fists in this game, I will be elaborating here the BASIC PUNCHES IN BOXING that you should familiarize.
1. JAB- The most essential PUNCH! TO do this, bend your knees, and chin should be down...It should come directly from a ready position. Don't forget to twist your arm in a corkscrew like motion just before impact. That will make a good punch.
2. STRAIGHT- When you throw your straight right, it should generally come right after the left jab is thrown. The right hand should come from your face, right by your chin where your right hand should be when you are in your "ready stance." It should be thrown directly from your face to your opponents face.
3. UPPERCUT- Most dangerous punch in boxing. This should be thrown when you are close with your opponent (inside fightingt).
4. HOOK- It could be right or left. To do this, throw your right hand which will then put you in perfect position to let the left hook go or vice versa. Bend your knees when you want it to become a good shot. Get down low by bending your knees enough so that you are almost looking right at the part of the body that you want to hit. Roll up with your punches.
