SevenStar Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 there are two bolo punches - the real bolo punch is outlawed in boxing. It was created by the filipino/spanish boxers and produced several knockouts. We trained this punch when I was in jun fan and kali. Are you familiar with the hammer fist? a bolo of similar, but strikes at a diagonal angle. The second "bolo" was a tactic sugar ray used. Have you seen any of the clips where he would wind up his rear hand, as if he were gonna strike, then once his opponent was distracted, punch him with the front hand? That was his bolo.

SevenStar Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 A hammerfist is just a strike with the bottom of your fist. it can typically come from overhead, diagonal and in some cases inside. The diagonal one is basically what a bolo punch is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bretty101 Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I'm not sure who Sugar Ray Leonard is?! But I thought the Bolo was like a long Hook punch round the back of the guard and with your head right down so your punching am is almost above your own head.

kenpo4life Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Actually Leonard did not invent the bolo punch. There was Puerto rican fighter named Kid Flash that invented it. If my survival means your total destruction, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenStar Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 that's why I posted the first bolo punch, and listed SRL's as the "fake" bolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
