Lewis, Shavers: right hand Holmes, Lewis, Listion, Pinklon Thomas: jab Cooney: Frazier, Morrison: left hook Marcaino: "Suzie Q" Ali: corkscrew jab. ( I think the corkscrew punch was pioneered by Kid McCoy.) Foreman: shovel hook, uppercut Fitz: solar plexis punch, liver shot Holmes (not really known for this but I see him do it a lot): Holds out his left with the palm outward like a traffic cop, apparently to create a blind spot, then throws an overhand right from behind it
You might be talking about the claimed "Anchor Punch" Ali was talking about after the Liston stoppage. Think it was Fleischer who said or learned there was no such thing and mentioned McCoy's corkscrew.
No, I think the "anchor punch" was just some made up bull**** Ali claimed to have learned from Bruce Lee or something (I forget). I'm talking about a punch where the glove is twisted at the end, with the intention to create cuts.
Norton Spoon and Briscoes overhand rt I dont believe were mentioned yet. Tony Zales strait rt hand to the body. Done perfectly where he bended his knees and dropped his whole body while still in a perfect balanced stance. It's not done anymore that way folks.. Ike Quartey jab
Ok. The only time i ever saw McCoy and the twist aligned to Ali was after Liston II when he seemed to make up the Anchor Punch on the spot and Nat labelled it or spoke about it differently.
Tyson's right hook too the body, followed by that right uppercut, one of the nicest one-two ever put together. Any Mexican fighter rather he boxed or brawled all had a beautiful left hook to the liver. Hearns straight right hand. All of J.Louises punches were text book, short, but so damn explosive. Holmes and Ali's jab. S.Liston,J.Frazier, Holyfield, Cooney, Morrison all had left hooks from hell. All were well known from it . Prime Ali's lead right hand from almost any distance. Same with R Jones.
