Hey, there isn't any boxing gym near where I live, infact: I've searched on the internet and didn't even find ANY boxing gym in my country (belgium)... it's not really a popular sport here 
So the point is that I have to learn it on my own and by asking questions to more knowing peeps like you!
1. I've seen a couple of movies of Pernell Whitaker and I was really stunned of how he could dodge punches, how exactly does he do it? Are you supposed to see punches comming and then be ultra fast and concentrated? Or are you supposed to predict them? Or are you simply just supposed to slip/bob/weave whenever you're not planning on punching? Is there some kind of routine?
2. Are there some good counterattacks after certain punches/combos? For example: I personally would throw a left hook to the body when someone attempts to throw an overhand right at me, as his liver would be exposed.
So if you know any counterattack to these punches please let me know. (also explain why they are good counterattacks)
Jab/Left hook (to body or head)/Right cross/Right hook (to body or head)/Overhand right/Uppercut.
3. Are there certain combos that I should practice besides the typical 12 123 and 1234?
When I make a combo myself I usually predict how my opponent would react to a punch and then hit the part of his body that gets exposed.
So if you know any good combos please tell them and explain why they would work.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the bad English if you're having dificulties reading.
