Image:Ouch-boxing-footwork.jpg|thumb|Punching combinations are an essential part of boxing.
A striking combination is a combination of strikes performed rapidly, usually from a stand-up position. If the combination includes only punches, it is called a punching combination, and if it includes only kicks, it is called a kicking combination.
Popular striking combinations consist of punches which allow the fighter to shift weight from one leg to the other in a natural rhythm.
