    Punches are often numbered:
    1 - Jab
    2 - Cross
    3 - Left Hook
    4 - Right Hook
    5 - Left Uppercut
    6 - Right Uppercut

    The "1-2" is a Jab/Cross combo. The cross is often the power punch, so for a southpaw (left handed boxer), the cross is the left hand. Usually, the jab is the left, and the cross is the right.

    Common combos
    1-2-3-4
    1-1-2
    1-4-3-6-5

    Linking punches is ODD-EVEN-ODD usually so you can prep the next punch in the combo.

    You don't have body shots listed.

    7-left hand body shot
    8-right hand body shot

    after you duck a hook, a great combo is 7-8-3-4 or 8-7-4-3 depending on which way you ducked, can often follow it up with a 1-2 or a 5-6
