Great video, though you could get more power with a bit more of a twist from the hips.

@Darrell – Tyson loved throwing a hook to the body + uppercut with the same hand. Other good ones, jab + cross + hook + uppercut + hook ; jab + cross + uppercut … Combinations are great to practice, it’s good to have them in your repertoire but first and foremost you want to take advantage of what your opponent gives you, which will determine the punches you throw, or set him up so you can land what you’re looking to land.

What would be a good combination that incorporated the uppercut?

You want a workout? Checkout the workout that Bernard Berrian does. Rumor has it, he’s going to be getting his own reality/workout show soon. But first, he’s going to be on Minute To Win It on NBC, Tuesday night at 8pm. Check it out!!

@ Jove Interesting point, but remember most men on this site have a curious nature. For example I can watch the History channel on the history of chocolate and enjoy it, or watch a show about sharks, or how the universe was made etc. Just how many guys are. It is nothing more than curiosity. Also, Chad was talking about how to box, not how to attack someone.

I have always preferred to counter. This tends to be more effective in an mma style matchup. But still, I base my punch combination off of the openings my opponent gives me. Thanks for the article.

@tim – I have a few workouts/articles on my blog covering boxing type workouts, or on my youtube page as well. One thing I would suggest is have a goal of building up to 180 second sets (a round in boxing). Start with 30-60 second sets, add 10 seconds to each set every week. (to add time, use drop sets, supersets, and eventually circuits of 3-4 exercises done back-to-back).
