Damn LOL this is the first "normal" numbering system so far in this thread. What's up with all the whack 1-6 numberings?! I guess people have just abandoned the boxing numbering

For body shots add B.

Jab to the head then to the body: "1 1B"
jab to the head then straight to the body: "1 2B"

agreed there is some messed up number systems up in here. i mean actually numbering a spinning back fist?

if you've tried bas ruttens mma workout his combos are as follows

1 - jab
2 - jab, cross
3 - jab, cross, left hook
4 - jab, cross, left hook, cross

this is basically the system we use at our school - its pretty effective and its easy to call out uppercut or liver shot or whatever inbetween combos

2-cross
3-lead hook
4-rear uppercut
5-lead uppercut
6-overhand

I'm just having trouble filling in the holes.

We don't use numbers for kicks, you just call out the side you want the kick to come on. Such as "1,2,3 left kick".

My coach just calls out the name of the punches except for the 1-2. He'll be like "one two, left hook, straight."

That i find odd for the beginners. Beginners cant even do what you ask them, much less figure out what to throw themselves, add in an inexperienced pad holder and freestyled pad work is a recipe for disaster.

I trained with and seen people who are of both minds, both thai and western boxing (regarding guiding a person with combos/feeding them pads and letting them go to town) and IMO, neither is better than the other, one does take two experienced people working together though for more complicated combinations.

1 - Jab
2 - Cross
3 - Left hook
4 - Right hook
5 - Left uppercut
6 - Right uppercut

This is what my coach uses for my club. I think it varies within every coach
