    I'm not sure if this was discussed in the past, but...
    Here is a little survey for boxers:

    What is your favorite offense?

    Mine is the simple Straight Right. Fast. Simple. Effective.

    Left hook/check hook (or front hook if you are a cack-hander)

    Yeah... Thanks. I am way to tired... :) I read only offense and that was it.

    I would say that jab is my strongest weapon. Being a tall guy and having long reach. Cross is something that would usually follow... Cannot separate then somehow... ;)

    Over-hand right, purely because I can do it well against others.

    Well, it can be more than one punch too. That's OK. Any offense is fine. Some guys like to throw more than one punch as an offense.

    I've started to teach this more and more. I have a couple of students who use it really well.

    I stole my overhand from Vu long before I trained under him! Fierce punch!!

    That would be surprising to see in boxing, but why not... :dunno: Doesn't break any rules... :)

    Offensively, I'd go with the jab (high, low, fake either one and hit the other).

    Counter offensively (not quite the original question but it is one of my favourite methods of initiating a combo), scoop your oponent's jab and throw a short right cross before they can cover. For me it works well on a single jab, tends to jam the second of a double jab.

    It would only be suprising to the person throwing it because they would KO'd as soon as it launched

    I'm not a huge fan of that one. Probably because every time I throw one, I get nailed by my opponent.
