In my class we practice that pretty often though, like to make a hit while swiping the side.

That's called a flying cross, it's not really an overhand right.

I used to *try* to use this move all the time. It's pretty cool if you can pull it off.

Yeah, I've eaten more than my share of these things. There's a lot of momentum in them. Even if I was able to block a piece of the punch, it still hurt like hell when it smashed into my face.

They're really effective when you have someone trapped in the corner. You might try them there, that's the best place to throw them.

I figure it's like a hook, but downward, I use it all the time, and like Yrkoon, I use it mostly when I blitz.

In Burmese barefisted boxing they call this a bullrush. The bullrush starts in the familiar boxing stance, left foot in front, then you leap forward onto your right foot, and land an overhead right. It's a crazy-assed knockout punch.
