A bolo punch is a punch used in martial arts. The bolo punch is not among the traditional boxing punches (jab, uppercut, hook and cross).
Bolo is a Filipino single-edged knife similar to the machete. The primary use for the bolo is clearing vegetation. Sugar Ray Leonard and Pedro Carrasco are widely recognized as some of the best bolo punchers in boxing history. Roy Jones Jr. and Joe Calzaghe also used the bolo punch frequently.
When used in boxing, the bolo punch's range of motion is like that of a hook combined with an uppercut.
