Answer 1

Rabit punch = Crochet.

Left/Right hook = Gancho de derecha/izquierda.

The rest of terms are the same as the english. Knockout, Uppercut, Technical KO...

This article and the associated links contain some boxing terms like:

asalto=rounds (pronounced as raunds in Spanish)

derribe=knock down

las cuerda= the ropes

nocaut (K.O., knockout) (sounds like the English word)

Etc.

Answer 3

to knock out: poner fuera de combate

knockout; K.O. - knockout in Spanish too
