Johnny’s Punching Combinations List

The one and only – ExpertBoxing’s complete list of punching combinations for boxers. This is just a list of combinations only.

It’s not about what punches you throw, it’s how you throw the punches. A basic 1-2 punch combination becomes very deadly when you mix in some variations differing in speed, angle, footwork, timing, and power.

If you need further explanation as to why and how you throw these combinations, please see my other articles on punch combinations.
