1: Fernando throws a long right cross from orthodox stance.
2: As Rafael covers up, Fernando steps in to close the distance.
3: He digs in a left body shot, which should brings Rafael’s guard down.
4: Fernando takes a small step back as he throws a left hook to the head.
5: To finish off the combination, Fernando steps back in and throws a right elbow to the top of Rafael’s head.
6: If that doesn’t knock Rafael down, Fernando steps back out of range and returns to fighting stance.

MASTER
Try switching the final strike to a right knee by pulling the head down with your left hand after the hook.
