Who owned the greatest right hand in boxing?

In the words of manny stalwart, LATIMEER KRISKO

 

Maybe we should ask Duran,im pretty sure he has the answer,im pretty sure he wont say any of them.

 

Hopkins.

 

:rofl I doubt Duran even remembers that day very much. Just brief memory flashes of a tall man with a jheri curl and red gloves colliding against his chin. I wouldn't dare mention the man's name or bring that day up at all.

 

I remember him blaming his love for booze and women for that fight and saying an early right hand hit him high on the head and knocked all the alcohol out of his system.

 

um.....hell no,nice lead right thats kind of like his jab with moderate power but he aint knocking people out for 5 mintutes.

 

yes that sounded like a shotgun blast,if he was drunk it was a good thing or he would be in coma at the least of dead

 

Julian Jackson.

Keith

 

Jcc

 

It's not just about power though. It's about timing, execution, technique, accuracy, speed etc. Hopkins trumps the vast majority on those counts.

 

i always like arguello's right cross.it was laser guided and as straight as an arrow.
the right hand that tommy hearns KO'd duran with was stunning

 

I know that,and knowone did that better than Hearns,their are others that have great arguments like Arguello and maybe 5 others and they all knocked brains out while having great technique and speed,but a rightnand thats from a southpaw,used as a jab,does not count especially from a otherdox fighter like Hopkins,Moorer and Hagler were the exceptions because they were righthanded fighters that fought southpaw, you can have all those Attributes with power and no other example is as perfect as the Hit Mans,I see your trying to overstate the featherfisted,your avitar tells it all.lol

 

Hopkins is a fair call

 

He also said he thought, for whatever bizarre reason, that Hearns was a chicken before that fight and that he'd be easy. :huhatsch:!:
