    no probs watched it the other day, was an odd stoppage as the towel went in when Nino went down from a shove. But the ref stopped it as Nino kicked the towel out but he was fine.

    Nino never quit his corner retired him very oddly.

    You're a real student of the game. Pretty impressive.

    I'm glad you found something you love at a young age.

    Good for you. :good

    You learn so much from watching boxing, guy in my gym watch no boxing at all how cn they learn?

    Book smarts is one thing, worldliness is another. BTW the clip you
    showed of yourself proved you to be a thinking fighter in the making,
    I saw it. And if it makes you feel any better, Hemingway, the great
    American novelist couldn't spell either. No BS!

    the fighter with the best right hand in terms of power, accuracy and technique to me would be cool vince phillips. the right hand was crafted by being a high school baseball pitcher and it was quite a fast ball!

    other fighters with great right hands, roger mayweather, tim witherspoon and maybe donny lalonde.

    are we talking power here, or accuracy or speed, or all the above?

    Can't believe no one's mentioned Marciano as of yet. Not many fighters have a right hand so nice that it gets its own name. 'Suzie Q' produced arguably the greatest punch of all time, as well.
