Purpose

Practises finishing rounds visibly.

Setup

  • Coach presents targets and controls rhythm
  • Boxer starts balanced, completes the sequence, then returns to guard

Run it

  1. Coach calls 'last ten'
  2. Boxer throws a clean 6-8 punch scoring burst, exits with jab and guard high
  3. Reset, check shape, then repeat

Coach checks

  • Clean volume
  • final visible shot. Check the purpose: practises finishing rounds visibly

Scale it

Add defence halfway through burst.

Common faults

  • Coach overfeeding
  • boxer punching too hard
  • wide hooks
  • dropping hands after combinations

Amateur relevance

Pad work should transfer into clean scoring, fast responses and visible control in amateur bouts.

Use it

Run at rhythm pace first, then add one layer: speed, movement, counter, exit or coach call.
