cathal Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 A bolo punch is used by boxers, but very rarely. It involves one of he arms going in a circle to distract the opponent. Which ever arm the opponent looks at, the other strikes the opponent. So it's a fake out basically.I don't know about a wing punch. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gzk Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 A bolo punch is the default drunken street brawler's punch, he pulls his dominant hand out of the invisible holster on his hip and throws a big wide hook at you. I've heard it's also used by boxers as a decoy (very occasionally) as cathal mentioned, albeit in a much more refined manner than the drunk.

baronbvp Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 The most classic bolo punch of all time was used by Sugar Ray Leonard against Roberto Duran. I'm sure you could find it on the web. Everyone (including Sugar Ray) was surprised that it worked in a championship fight. I believe in the same fight, Duran ended up giving up by raising his hands and exclaiming, "no mas!" Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rateh Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Why are you punching a brick? :/ Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. - Nido Qubein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miakesan Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 On a side note, has anyone ever heard of, or seen (maybe in the back of a bar next to some kind of gym) a bolo kick? And yes, why are you punching a brick? At the sound of the tone, the time is now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
