Text Appearing Before Image:
to the best of your ability to confusehim. If you are successful in that then comesthe time to be aggressive. Jab him, if you can,with your left. Failing this, send in bothhands, straight from the shoulder, to his faceand head. Keep at this until you get hisguard up. If he finds you fighting at his headall the time he will forget to protect hisstomach and wind. When he forgets, the time has come for youto get in your fine work. Watch your oppor-tunity well, and when the proper momentcomes step in as close to him as you can,and a little to one side, and strike withyour left or right hand, whichever is con-venient, hard in his solar plexus. Throw everypound of your weight behind the blow, put allyour strength in it, and pivot slightly on yourfoot as it lands. If you execute the blow properly, it is almostcertain to score a knockout.
