My name is Tony Jeffries, Olympic medalist and retired professional boxer. I am now co-owner of Box 'N Burn, two boxing fitness gyms in Los Angeles, as well as the Box 'N Burn Academy where we train professional boxing trainers. During my career I won the national championship 7 times, and also became European champion.

If you have watched my videos before, you probably already know my boxing style. It involves getting my opponent to do what I want I want them to do. In this case, my goal is to get my opponent to move their hands down, leaving enough room for me to land a hook to the head right behind the ear. This is how you do it.

To get your opponent’s hands down, you need to throw punches that hit their midsection. You might need to throw a few punches before your opponent gets their hands down to defend. Since most boxers try to leave as little room as possible in their midsection, your punches need to be vertically inclined to get in there.

Speed is very important when you are trying to land a hook to the head. The second your opponent gets their hands down, you need to be quick to land the hook to the head. This is not very easy at first, but with practice, your reaction speed will improve.

Another thing to keep in mind is the transfer of your weight so you can get as much power as possible with your hook to the head. Watch me demonstrate exactly how you can do this in this video. If you follow through, you should almost instantly see an increase in your punching power.

The hook to the head has helped me win a lot of fights in my career as a professional boxer. Lots of them were by a knockout, so a perfect hook to the head is one of the best assets for a boxer at any level. This is regardless of whether you are boxing for fighting or for fitness. Focus on your form at all times and gradually increase your speed.
