Boxing Combinations - A Simple Tip with the Help of Vasyl Lomachenko

I am regularly asked what are my favourite boxing combinations and it is a question I struggle to answer.

So in this video, the first of a series on my principles of boxing combinations, I am going to use Ukrainian super fighter Vasyl Lomachenko to show you how some simple principles can lead to amazing outcomes.

I would much rather you focus on principles and patterns when it comes to boxing combinations so that you can construct your own in a logical and effective way. This is a much better approach than simply copying like a parrot a series of combinations.

The first point I want to make is that I do not view boxing combinations as a combination of punches, I view boxing combinations as a combination of skills.

Viewing the combination as series of skills, not just punches but foot movements, body movements and defences, will deliver much more dynamic and effective boxing combinations.

Vasyl Lomachenko demonstrates this approach perfectly. Lomachenko uses punches, foot movements and body movements in the most brilliant way to attack the centre line and flank of the opponent whilst using only straight punches.

It goes a little like this:

- Back hand with a lead foot step across
- Pivot with a jab
- Back hand, jab, back hand whilst stepping forward.

Lomachenko also uses his jab as a fundamental and destructive part of his boxing combinations.

So the key takeaways for this video:

- Boxing combinations are combinations of skills, not just punches
- Think about ways of attacking centre line and flanks.
