    Who are the best punchers for each individual punch? Basically who implemented each individual punch most efficiently.

    (simplified)
    Jab
    Straight
    Lead Hook
    Power Hook
    Lead Uppercut
    Power Uppercut

    i.e.
    Jab - Ali
    Lead hook - Mike Tyson etc.

    Jab, straight and lead hook has to be floyd. Could also say b-hop for straight. Tyson and mosley for power hook. Floyd for lead uppercut but not many people throw a lead uppercut so i didn't have many choices. Tyson for power uppercut.

    i dont understand why people are giving the jab to ali, he used it effectively, but it was not a heavy jab that did damage.

    jab- Holmes- Liston- Wlad
    Straight right- current- Wlad, kessler, floyd.. past- lewis, arguello
    Hooks- Frazier, Tyson, Tua
    Upper cut- Tyson

    lead uppercut could go to JMM watch the Jandaeng fight.
    otherwise most of the rest are pretty well said.

    Mosleys left hook is lethal. So much speed and power behind it..
