2-3 Combos the 1-2 combo you ignore

The Two Three combination the other 1-2…
Most fighter have no problem with the 1-2 Jab followed by the cross, but fail to see that the same rhythm in the 1-2, can be applied in the 2-3 combination a cross followed by a left hook. Here's how we do it, you lead with the cross while in conventional guard, left foot forward then follow it up with a left hook to the chin. This is a classic combo that can work as a counter (off the jab) or a jack (jumping the jab), as most fighters are taught, never lead with their right hand so that they are not countered by a left hook to the body. Yet when you properly understand how to set up this combination, it can serve you like a bag of lucky charms. The 2-3 combo is a great counter as you slip outside the jab, throwing the right hand over the incoming it then adjusting your feet so that the hook comes sweeping across his face right on the button. This chin checker is a golden rule combination if your timing is right. Boxing is all about countering and masking movements. So learn to hide your intent and not to give it away then let the dogs out.

A great way to practice the set up of this combo is to parry the left jab with you right hand, remember not to parry across your chest just enough to move the jab off line.
Add the slip and parry movement and watch the placement of your feet. You have to know where you need to be to land the hook on the chin line, move too much and your hook will never land. The object is to place the right hand so that the hook follows naturally setting your balance back to your guard position. Try this in sparring (real time) and make the adjustments once you have the vision in your mind, work on not giving the combo away adding fakes and feint to throw off your opponent then hitting him with a devastating chin checker that can have him reaching for the ropes.
Enjoy
