So, assuming this is a jab (since that's the Dudley animation for his jab) there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind for a realistic boxing jab.

As shown in that vid ^^^^, a jab is quick and all about forward momentum. Simply bending your knee doesn't allow for enough push, so when executing a jab you'll want to step forward completely, then pull back after.

Bit sloppy, but this is the jist of how a boxing jab would look. Hitmonchan also has muscles in his arms, so a straight line doesn't really work for him (he'd also appear quite weak, which doesn't seem right
). I also made a few changes based on references I found of him from the anime and promo art, dunno if those will be of use but thought I'd throw them in there.
Another thing to keep in mind is that a jab is quick, so the animation should be quick. Going directly from a slight bend to the straight jab is a great technique for this, and the one used in Dudley's animation in 3S. Your's is verrrrry close to that and it'd be fine as is, but just a little quicker on the rise up and it'd be perfect.
