Signature Punch

The Jinx

 

I like the bolopuch, a very wide uppercut ceferino garcia invented long long ago. It's like an uppercut but waaaaay wider and does not start from your chin as the rest of your punches, it starts with your hand up (more or less). The arm draws close to a full circle creating a really really wide uppercut. Aparently it was used by kid gavilan (even though I dont remember it, tbh), and by fighters like pedro carrasco (unknown fighter with a hell of a streak of victories, widely known for using bolopunch as his signature punch too).

It is usually used to brag too, but good fighters can use it to KO, not to brag at all. Extremely dangerous punch (for the one executing it, I mean), though, because you are exposed as hell, so it makes sense that we dont see it very often nowadays.

I remember ray robinson using it too, even though not even close to a signature move for him. It was very common long ago, many fighters used it.

EIDT: this punch, I'm sure you have seen it many times before, specially in old times fighters

Really like Johnny Bratton's straight right hand.

 

Stop with the drained narrative! Canelo weighed in several times prior to the FM fight at 152. Was not a huge sacrifice to do so. If I'm not mistaken, Canelo weighed in at 152 the fight before Mayweather.

Bratton lands it a lot in this fight. At 35:40 he jumps into it.

 

Back in the mid 80's, we were all trying to throw Barry McGuigan's left hook to the body. Not only was it a devastating shot but it looked so cool when he threw it.
The same thing was happening 5 or so years ago with all the young lads trying to copy Golovkin's corkscrew right.

 

he was drained af and missed weight when he was 21 trying to make 152. he could barely stand up during the weigh in

 

It was a tough fight, Both were marked up.

 

C'mon guys we can't forget about the famous Check Jab!!

It floored future champion, the iron chinned Deontay Wilder

 

Pacquiao's left hook roll under move

Tysons right hook to the body combined with the right uppercut.

 

Tommy Hearns right cross was beautiful along with almost every textbook punch by Arguello.

Love a Joe Frazier left hook.
