EP5 - The Step Back Hook, Ft. Max Martini, Southpaw & Orthodox | Boxing Training, Technique & Drills

In this episode of Pullmanomics, professional boxing trainer John Pullman goes over the step back hook. This is also known as the check hook. Floyd Mayweather Jr. popularized this in 2007 when he used it to knock Ricky Hatton down into the corner. This episode will go over different drills and mechanics of this advanced counter punch.
This episode of Pullmanonics features special guest, actor and filmmaker, Max Martini. Max is best known for his film work in Captain Phillips, Pacific Rim, The Unit, The Purge (TV Series) and Fifty Shades of Grey, just to name a few.

The video is cool and well explained. But the example that you show on Floyd is a different punch. Is a front check hook, where you move laterally to the left (or the front hand side) instead of back hook like you explained. Props for the video 👌

To break it down in increments like this is perfect. Just awesome details!

[@PullmansGym]

I appreciate it and thank you for your support!

[@gustavgustaffson9553]

I actually do this a lot. as I am often bigger than my sparring partners. This and uppercuts are probably my favs for punishing opponents for wanting the infight.

Hey coach 11:30 can you explain telegraphing. Isn't that it too? What's the difference?

[@schoolday-nj2pt]

[@jonathaningram2469]

I am not saying this is wrong, I think you do a good job of explaining the mechanics, but I throw the hook when I step back instead of step back and then hook. I think it is quicker, but it might sacrifice a little power. I favor speed here as to me this is a timing shot.

[@newagain9964]

As anything else…it depends. Range, opps length, etc

[@algeriemouloudia5376]

Bonsoir coach vidéo géniale bien expliqué A LAPROCHAINE yassine d Algérie

[@bitminersouth8845]

it should be possible to the same hook going forward, right?

[@PullmansGym]

Thanks for your question! Yes you can do it forward however be careful of your position, make sure to shift your body to position and your head will move so you don’t run into any punches

[@bitminersouth8845]

@@PullmansGym thank you coach. This channel is very qualitative, I enjoy every video!
