Get it right, twist your body properly, and connect on the point of the chin and your opponent shouldn’t give you any further trouble. It's the straight right.

Don't forget that body twist. Youwll notice that the twist pulls your left arm and shoulder back so that you're in perfectly natural position to throw the left hook you just learned about. Now you know three punches. Put them all together and you have a nice practice routine, jab first, straight right next, then left hook, then back to on-guard.
