What is the best punch ever thrown and why ?

Julian Jackson was insane the way he could throw a knockout punch from any position. Scientists should study him

The lack of wind up in this punch makes it all the more impressive

 

Ottke or wood !

 

Gee alex leapais uppercut the other week has got to be up there from the local scene.

 

the first right hand maselino masoe threw at evans ashira to win the wbc (?) middle title. up until that point, mace teased ashira in, by just throwing jabs. as soon as evans took the bait, mace clobbered him with the most wicked right hand you'd never want to feel. ashiras ancestors were wobbling. man, the sound that punch made near broke the audio of the tv telecast.

cant find it on youtube. it was there once...

and why?

because mace was such a great bloke with genuine humility. he was past his best and had been denied opportunity all his life. when he got that first opportunity, he made the most of it. the first samoan world champion!! champion bloke too.

 

Good pick sally, I like tysons one on etienne precision punch

 

Micky Ward stopping Alfonso Sanchez with a beautiful liver shot

 

I love Tua's monster hook on John ruiz

 

Tommy Hearns' right hand that Koed Roberto Duran. Why - because it was the only time Duran had ever been koed in his career. I always turn the volume up & listen to the impact.......nothing short of WOW!

 

This. :good:good But i'm a bit biased.

Also Marciano's right hand KO punch v Walcott 1.
Why- because it would have killed a normal man. :yep

 

That makes two fo us Zoley. A pure fighting machine The Hitman. Tommy & Marv are my fav two fighters of all time.

 

walcott had great footwork. he didnt bounce like ali and waste all that energy. holyfield was capable of walcott style footwork, but he bounced a bit also. wacott was a great fighter to watch for conservation of movement. perhaps the best ever.

watching the lead up to that marciano right hand, and walcotts lack of movement or even awareness of it about to be thrown, has always made me suspicious of it. you could see rocky lining him up for a right hand for 3 or 4 seconds. a fighter of walcotts experience knew it was coming. he didnt try and avoid it, he just let it come.

something about that stank. i'll bet im not the first to say so.....
