I finally finished my research about Mike Tyson's Punch Number List. After some hours searching through movies, forums, sites and archives I finally assembled the whole list. Now the idea behind these numbers is that your opponent does not understand what you're gonna throw at him. Insted of hearing "Jab, Jab, Straight, Hook, Left Uppercut" and so on, he'll hear "7,7,2,1,3" and he won't know what the heck is this. In your mind there will be no left hook, there is just "one". You know the numbers, not the punches. So here it goes:
1 - Left Hook to Head
2 - Right Hook / Right Straight to Head (I believe that yelling only '2' means that you should throw a right hand lead.)
3 - Left Uppercut to Head
4 - Right Uppercut to Head
5 - Left Hook / Left Uppercut to Body
6 - Right Hook / Right Uppercut to Body
7 - Left Jab to Head
8 - Left Jab to Body
7-7-2 is a fast combination of two jabs and a right cross.
7-2-5 is another useful combination, which ends with a left hook to the ribs.
7-6-4 is my personal favourite, because you start with a really fast jab, another fast right hand to the ribs and you snap his head backwards with an uppercut.
5-6-1 also known as Body-Body-Head is used mainly to get out of a clinch and hurt your opponent while doing it.
6-2-2 is a combination that Tyson used against Trevor Berbick. Such fast combinations really hurt and stun your opponent.
